Isolated, studied and selected from the prestigious Côte de Nuits terroir in Burgundy during a three-year research project by Laboratory Burgundia Oenologie in Beaune, France. The goal of this selection program was to find a dominant natural yeast strain from a traditional “cold soak” that would elaborate intense, complex and balanced Pinot Noir varietal character. The 3001 strain stood out from other strains. Wines made with it were noted for fruit and varietal characters that were both elegant and complex.

Moderate nitrogen demand but will benefit from proper nutrition and aeration (especially when the potential alcohol exceeds 13%).

Tolerant to standard SO2 additions and low temperatures (12°C/54°F) for a steady and reliable alcoholic fermentation following cold soak.

Vitilevure 3001® is recommended for cold soak protocols for intense Pinot Noir wines with aging potential.

58W3
Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Viognier, Sémillon

S. cerevisiae • cerevisiae
Isolated during a five-year study by the INRA (National Agricultural Research Institute) in Alsace, France.
Due to its fermentation kinetics, especially in high potential alcohol juices, a balanced nutrient strategy and good fermentation practices should be followed.
Vitilevure 58W3TM contributes an overall well-balanced mouthfeel with floral and fruity aromas.
Allows for the release of bound terpenes in aromatic varieties due to the beta-glucosidase activity. This enhances classic varietal characteristics.
Also good for cider.

Tailpieces are fittings which connect beer and gas tubing to the different parts of a draft system. One side of the tailpiece features a barb to connect the tubing to, and the other side is held against the tap or faucet shank with a beer shank nut. Made of stainless steel. This elbow shaped tailpiece helps you fit your tubing runs in tight spaces, requiring just 1 5/8" clearance above the tap or behind the shank.

Bacteria rehydration nutrient
Acti-ML® is a bacteria nutrient used during rehydration of the direct addition and standard malolactic bacteria strains. It was developed by the Lallemand bacteria R&D team led by Dr. Sibylle Krieger-Weber. Acti-ML is a specific blend of inactive yeasts rich in amino acids, mineral cofactors and vitamins. These inactive yeasts are mixed with cellulose to provide more surface area to help keep bacteria in suspension. Acti-ML can help strengthen the development of bacteria growth under difficult conditions.

To Use: Mix Acti-ML into 5 times its weight in 25°C(77°F) chlorine-free water. Add bacteria, then wait 15 minutes before adding the suspension to the wine.

Alcotec 48-Hour Turbo Yeast will ferment 13 pounds of normal sugar in a 6.5 gallon solution in 48 hours or less. This turbo yeast, essences for the home distilling of alcohol. Make alcohol by fermentation up to above 20% strength using extreme turbo yeast.

Renaissance Yeast’s strains have excellent fermentation kinetics, desirable sensory characteristics, and are produced to the highest quality standards. Renaissance Yeast is the exclusive developer of a novel, patented H2S-preventing technology that is the result of a natural trait in yeast that increases sulfur and nitrogen utilization efficiency during fermentation, thereby preventing hydrogen sulfide formation.

Allegro is a H2S-preventing yeast strain selected for white wine fermentations. It is well suited for aromatic expression of any white varietal and is capable of delivering soft mouth feel characteristics. Allegro is exceptional at focusing the fruit – either alone or as part of a blend – and is an excellent choice for Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

The unique lining used in Antimicrobial Tubing has been proven to be 100% effective against the top 4 beverage spoiling bacteria for up to 2,000 liters of flow. The tubing is also PVC and BPA free.

An Auto Siphon is a one-pump method of starting your transfer. Mini size is meant for jugs and growlers, while standard 3/8" size is designed for buckets and carboys.  The large increases the flow rate by using 1/2" tubing.

One stroke of the racking cane/piston assembly will start a siphon when immersed in as little as six inches of beer or wine. Includes a removable diverter tip to minimize sediment pickup. Plastic construction; can be disassembled for cleaning.

Yeast cell wall extract (mannoproteins) rich in sweet peptide fraction and vegetal polysaccharides (arabic gum).

AUTOLEES® provides detailed understanding on the natural phenomena associated with aging wine on lees and with the colloidal action of certain polysaccharides on wine. The proprietary composition of AUTOLEES® improves smoothness in wines (red and rosé) allowing the winemaker to delicately balance both acidity and bitterness.

APPLICATIONS
• During wine maturation (with or without lees).
• During the preparation of the wine prior to bottling.
• Contributes to wine stabilisation by preventing potassium bitartrate salts precipitation.

DOSAGE
• Between 5 and 30 g/hL (50 - 300 ppm) depending on the desired effect

Andante has been renamed Avante in 2017.

Renaissance Yeast’s strains have excellent fermentation kinetics, desirable sensory characteristics, and are produced to the highest quality standards.

This Nickel Plated Brass Beer Shank Nut is used to attach a barb to either a shank or a keg tap in your draft setup. You’ll also need a Black Neoprene Beer Shank Washer.

BIODIVA

Torulaspora delbrueckii

The Torulaspora delbrueckii isolate Biodiva was initially sold in North American in a kit (Level2D) in which it was partnered with a specific S. cerevisiae strain. Based upon market feedback the Biodiva isolate is now available by itself. Winemakers can match it with a compatible S. cerevisiae of their choosing for both red and white wines. The result is that winemakers can now mimic the best of wild fermentations in a controlled setting.

Following an inoculation of Biodiva (Torulaspora delbrueckii) with an inoculation of an appropriate S. cerevisiae leads to an increase in ester levels while helping to promote a complete and clean fermentation. Resulting wines commonly have more intense aromas, mouthfeel and complexity.

S. cerevisiae strains compatible with Biodiva are 43, BDX, ICV D254, L2056, QA23, and VRB.

Storage: Store for 24 months at 4°C (39°F). Use immediately once opened.
