Description
A Sauternes isolate with genuine cold tolerance — Lallemand put its floor at 5 °C — that makes neutral juice taste fruity by releasing terpenes and throwing esters. It is sensitive to poor nutrition and will answer a starved ferment with volatile acidity, so feed it and protect it at rehydration.
