Lalvin BIODIVA TD291™ Wine Yeast (500g)
Due to its low volatile acid production and its tolerance to osmotic shock, BIODIVA is particularly adapted for fermenting late harvest and ice wines. Highly recommended for Chardonnay, Semillon and has also been used on Pinot Noir with success.
This yeast can ferment up to 8% alcohol. For craft ciders under 8% alcohol this yeast can ferment alone, but for wine, a Saccharomyces yeast is needed to complete the fermentation.
