Product details
This is the latest natural yeast selection from the Institut Coopératif du Vin (ICV). When compared with other yeasts, the LALVIN ICV OPALE 2.0™ complements intense and complex fruit aromas in premium white and rosé wines. This yeast also shows good fermentation abilities in the high-maturity grapes coming from the Mediterranean and Rhône regions. Wines fermented with ICV OPALE 2.0™ give the initial impression of volume and softness, followed by a round, intense mid-palate and balanced finish. Very low production of SO2, H2S, vinylphenol (POF-) and acetaldehyde.
