Pitching/Fermentation : Red Star Montrachet Wine Yeast(Davis 522), a
strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has been derived from the collection
of the University of California.

This strain has been widely used in the U.S. since 1963. It is a strong
fermenter with good ethanol tolerance, and will readily ferment grape
musts and fruit juices to dryness. This strain also has good tolerance
to free sulfur dioxide.

Notes : This strain
is recommended for full bodied reds and whites. It is not recommended
for grapes that have been dusted with sulfur, because of a tendency to
produce hydrogen sulfide in the presence of higher concentrations of
sulfur compounds.
Montrachet is noted for low volatile acidity, good flavor complexity,
and intense color.

Best Styles : Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah, Zinfandel
