Lalvin K1™ (V1116) has been selected by INRA Montpellier located in France in the Mediterranean region. When fermented at low temperatures (below 16°C) and with the right addition of nutrients, Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is one of the yeast producing the most floral esters (isoamyl acetate, hexyl acetate, phenyl ethyl acetate). These esters bring fresh floral aromas to neutral varieties or high-yield grapes. Among the high ester producers, Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is the most resistant strain in difficult fermentation conditions, such as low turbidity, low temperature and low fatty acid content. Lalvin K1™ (V1116) is also a proven strain for the fermentation of ice wines.

K1V-1116 is designed to bring out the freshness of white grape wines. It ferements vigorously and will have no problem fermenting in a must that is nutrient low.
