Description
Blend of yeast strains for expressing volatile thiols
Alchemy II is a blend of Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeast strains developed in collaboration with the AWRI in South Australia for optimal aromatic profile.
Alchemy II enhances volatile thiols such as boxwood, passion fruit, grapefruit, kiwifruit and guava aromas. It is highly recommended for cool tank fermentations of Sauvignon blanc (New Zealand, South African or Chilean style).
Under difficult conditions (pH<3.2, turbidity under 80 NTU, low YAN, temperatures below 15°C(59°F), Alchemy II can be stressed and will produce VA.
Alchemy II is a low SO₂ producer with fast fermentation kinetics. Temperature management is crucial.
