Applications & Uses

Food & Nutrition Applications
Applications

PREMIUM® SAUVIGNON is particularly recommended for the production of wines with high varietal aromatic expression. It develops the olfactory characteristics of the original grape variety with an intensification of fresh floral notes, not affecting the aroma, but supporting it. It fully expresses and highlights the typical characteristics of Sauvignon blanc. It is directly applicable in the Vinification Procedures for white wines in reduction, which are available through the Technical Service of Enologica Vason. Excellent for the production of aromatic varieties; it will bring the typical components of the Sauvignon blanc variety to their full expression. PREMIUM® SAUVIGNON is extremely well-suited for barrique fermentation.
When using PREMIUM® SAUVIGNON comply with the relative legal regulations in force.

Directions For Use

Dissolve the necessary amount of yeast in 10 parts of tepid water (40°C) containing 1-2 % sugar. After 30 minutes, stir and add the filtered and sulfured must gradually, so as not to cause sharp drops in temperature. In order to help the multiplication of the yeasts, the substrate must not contain more than about 2 % of sugar and must be carefully aerated. During this stage, the use of compound fermentations activators such as V ACTIV PREMIUM® is recommended. Once the yeast is rehydrated and in active fermentation, it can be incorporated into the main body to be fermented. It is advisable to gradually add the must to the mass of reactivated yeast, which is already at the bottom of the fermentation tank. For more detailed information about the management of the nutrients and to improve the use of yeasts please contact our technical service and official procedures.
