Lalvin MSB™
(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
Product details
Lalvin MSB™ was isolated from Marlborough Valley, New Zealand, during a project led by the R&D Lallemand team. Lalvin MSB™ was specifically selected from several isolates for its fermentation performance and ability to enhance Sauvignon Blanc varietal character. Sauvignon Blanc wines fermented with Lalvin MSB™ produce strong tropical notes, zesty grapefruit, spicy with lemon pith flavours and lovely fruit weight. Varietal characters are accompanied with excellent fruity thiol production.
