Organoleptic Characteristics
  • EnartisFerm Perlage DOCG is a yeast selected to produce base wine and sparkling wines with second fermentation in pressure tank.
  • When fermented at low temperatures and in the presence of a good nitrogen source, it produces aromas of white fruit (mainly apple and pear) which increase aromatic complexity without overwhelming the varietal characteristics of the grape.
  • It produces wines with marked elegance, balance and freshness. Excellent in the sourlì phase to improve fineness of the perlage and persistence of foam due to the release of mannoproteins.

Applications & Uses

Food & Nutrition Applications
Applications
  • Charmat method
  • Primary fermentation of base wine and sparkling wine
Dosage
  1. 20-40 g/hL (1.67 - 3.3 lb/1000 gal)
  2. The highest dosages are recommended in cases of rotten grapes, high sugar content and difficult microbiological conditions.
Instructions For Use
  1. Suspend dry yeast in 10 times its weight of clean, warm (35-40°C or 95-104°F) water. Stir gently.
  2. Let suspension stand for 20 minutes, then gently stir again.
  3. Add suspension to juice when beginning to fill fermentation tank. The difference in temperature between yeast suspension and juice should not exceed 10°C (18°F).
  4. Homogenize by pumping over or mixing inoculated juice.

Working to the above-mentioned times and methods ensures maximum activity of re-hydrated yeast.
To optimize its ability to produce aromas, EnartisFerm Perlage DOCG should ferment at temperatures near 16°C (60°F).
