Pitching/Fermentation: The ICV D-47 is a low-foaming quick fermenter that settles well, forming a compact lees at the end of fermentation. This strain tolerates fermentation temperatures ranging from 15° to 20°C (59° to 68°F) and enhances mouthfeel due to complex carbohydrates. Malolactic fermentation proceeds well in wine made with ICV D-47.
Notes: Recommended for making wines from white varieties such as Chardonnay and rosé wines. An excellent choice for producing mead; however, be sure to supplement with yeast nutrients, especially usable nitrogen.
