Present a complete and regular fermentation kinetic within a wide temperature range from 17°C to 30°C. Low volatile acidity and acetaldehyde production under suitable nutritional conditions
Oenological Properties:
- Strain able to improve the softness and the roundness of full bodied wines thanks to the valorisation of the lightest tannins
- Varietal strain adapted to the vinification of Bordeaux grapes: development of “cut herbs� like aromas with Cabernet Sauvignon and “ripen fruits� like aromas with Merlot
- Adapted to international market requirements by producing full bodied red wines poor in astringency
- Production of complex aromas which combine with oak flavors to create a very original organoleptic profile, what can bring character to the lightest wines
