Lalvin RC-212 Wine Yeast is a robust choice specifically tailored for red wine varieties. It’s highly regarded for its ability to enhance color stability and tannin structure, making it an ideal choice for crafting rich, full-bodied red wines like Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, and Grenache. This yeast strain is celebrated for its ability to bring forward the varietal fruit flavors, adding complexity and depth to the wine.
RC-212’s moderate fermentation speed and high alcohol tolerance ensure a consistent fermentation process, even in challenging conditions. Additionally, it aids in the extraction of polyphenols from grape skins, contributing to a well-rounded mouthfeel and enhanced aroma.
