Lalvin EC-1118 Dry Yeast (500 g)

Sparkling Base, Late Harvest, Icewine, Fruit Wine

• Selected by the Institut Oenologique de Champagne (IOC) in Epernay, France. Reference strain for sparkling wine.
• Is the original, steady low foamer, and is popular for barrel fermentations. It is an excellent choice for secondary fermentations of sparkling wine.
• Ferments well at low temperatures and flocculates with compact lees.
• Under low nutrient conditions Lalvin EC1118^TM can produce high amounts of SO₂ (up to 50 ppm) and, as a result, may inhibit malolactic fermentation.
