K1-V1116 vyno mielės

Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is one of the yeasts that produces the highest number of floral esters (isoamyl acetate, hexylacetate, phenylethyl acetate) when fermented at low temperature (below 16°C) and with proper nutrient addition. These esters add a fresh floral aroma to neutral varieties or high-yielding grapes. Among the high ester producers, Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is the most resistant strain under difficult fermentation conditions such as low turbidity, low temperature and low fatty acid content. Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is also a proven strain for ice wine fermentation.

Alcohol tolerance up to 18%
