Description
Oenococcus oeni adapted to high alcohol that enhances mouthfeel and oak integration
Lalvin Silka™ was isolated in Rioja, Spain and selected by the ICVV during an extensive research program.
Silka is recognized for its positive impact on mouthfeel and softening of astringency and bitterness. It is well-suited for wines aged in contact with oak.
Kinetics are regular and nutrient demand is moderate, so Silka would benefit from an addition of ML Red Boost nutrient.
Usage
Add directly to wine and mix thoroughly.
Storage
Dated expiration. For short term (<18 months) store at 4°C(40°F). For long term (>18 months) store at –18°C(0°F).
