Malolactic Bacteria - Lalvin MBR Elios 1 - 2500L to 25,000L

Malolactic Bacteria - MBR Elios 1 - 25,000L

Elios 1 was isolated from a spontaneous malolactic fermentation, selected and tested by ICV (Institut Cooperatif du Vin), in Languedoc-Roussillon, in France, for its quick and reliable degradation of malic acid in most mediterranean and Rhône red wines. 

Elios 1 has the capacity to enhance the sensory profiles of red wines. It contributes to increase the sensation of reds fruits and spicy notes, with an higher complexity and tannin intensity; the mouthfeel of wines is also improved. 

Due to its good implantation, Elios 1 has the capacity to limit the development of spoilage micro-organisms (e.g., Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Pichia and Brettanomyces) in Mediterranean style red wines.

Always shipped with an icepack. No weekend shipments.
