Features & Benefits

Characterstics

It is well-known in fact that in case of stuck fermentation, fructose is an abundant residue and is usually hardly assimilated by the yeast; highly fructophyllic. For this reason, the product formula has been thoroughly studied by Enologica Vason in association with ENSAM, Montpellier.

Applications & Uses

Food & Nutrition Applications
Applications

Because of its characteristics, PREMIUM® FRUCTO is recommended for new wines in case of stuck or difficult fermentation. It is also recommended to prevent stuck fermentation for high alcohol wines. When used as second yeast in sequential fermentations, PREMIUM® FRUCTO gives excellent qualitative results, also in case of adverse conditions.

Directions For Use

Dissolve the recommended yeast dose in 10 doses of warm (40°C) water with 1-2% sugar. After 30 minutes mix the solution, then gradually add filtered and sulphited must, avoiding abrupt temperature decreases. In order to ease the multiplication of yeast cells the substrate should not contain more than 2% sugar and should be well ventilated. During this step, the use of complex fermentation activators such as V ACTIV PREMIUM® is recommended. Once the yeast is rehydrated and going through active fermentation, it can be added to the wine ready for fermentation. It is recommended to add must gradually to the bulk of reactivated yeast, which had been previously transferred into fermentation tank.
For a correct use in case of refermentation and fermentation stuck, please ask our Technical Service for instructions.
