Origin:
Selected from a French grape cultivar. This strain is a special selection Red Star.

Fermentative Properties:
Fast fermenting strain that ensures a regular fermentation even at low temperature (12°C-14°C, 53°F-57°F).

Little temperature increase in case of fermentation temperature is not controlled.

Alcohol tolerance: >14% vol.

Low production of foam and very low volatile acidity and sulphur compound production with an adapted nitrogen contribution (balanced addition of organic and mineral nitrogen).

Organoleptic Properties:
Wines obtained with the Côte des Blancs yeast strain present very fine fruity aromas.

This strain respects typical varietal aromas of the grapes and intensifies primary aromas, especially those of very aromatic grape cultivars such as Sauvignon Blanc and Moscato.

With a good nitrogen supplementation, Côtes des Blancs can also produce a high quantity of fermentative aromas that value wines obtained from neutral grapes.

Applications:
Ideal for all high quality white wines with intense varietal expression such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Moscato.

Allows an optimum aromatic expression for the production of wines derivated from neutral grape cultivars.

As an aromatic yeast strain, Côte des Blancs also produces very good results on sparkling and rosé wines.
