Yeast Lalvin ICV GRE
Lalvin ICV-GRE™: For fruit-forward Rhône-style wines
In reds, this yeast contributes up front fruit to easy-to-drink Rhône style wines. Lalvin ICV-GRE is used with short skin contact regimes (3 to 5 days) to reduce vegetal and undesirable sulfur components in varieties like Merlot, Cabernet, Grenache and Syrah.
In fruit-focused whites like Chenin blanc, Riesling, and Viognier, Lalvin ICV-GRE results in stable fresh fruit characteristics and delivers a big fore-mouth impact. If the fruit maturity is less than optimum, the Lalvin ICV-GRE is excellent for bringing overall balance to red, rosé and white wines.
Rosé wines fermented with Lalvin ICV-GRE from more balanced maturity fruit, emphasize red fruit and higher volume and are complemented by blending Rosés fermented with Lalvin ICV-D21.
Recommended Styles: Red Wines, Rosé, White Wines
