- QUALITY – Thanks to its high intensity dark fruit aromas, this yeast strain can enhance lighter red varietals or less robust grapes. It is also well-suited for wines aged in oak barrels. Premier Rouge’s alcohol tolerance allows you to craft wines up to 15% ABV.
- FLEXIBLE FERMENTATION – Temperature control is recommended with this strain, and performs best in a fermentation temperature range of 64-86ºF.
- HOME FERMENT INGREDIENTS – To begin fermentation, rehydrate yeast in 50 mL of water at a temperature of 95-100ºF. Gently stir to dissolve, then wait 20 minutes and add to the wine must. This packet of active dry yeast ferments up to 5 gallons of wine.
