Malo Lactic Culture 2.5/hl

Description

Selected strain of Oenococcus oeni, EnartisML Silver assures the progress of malolactic fermentation under very difficult conditions due to high alcohol, high polyphenol content and low pH. It enhances the aromatic fruitiness and complexity and respects the color intensity of red wines. Alcohol tolerance ≤ 16%; pH tolerance ≥3,2.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
EnartisML Silver is a selected strain of Oenococcus oeni to start malolactic fermentation in white and red
wines with difficult conditions such as high alcohol content, low pH and high polyphenol content.
It produces a clean and fruity aroma and reduces vegetal notes that can be found in some wines.

ENOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
pH tolerance: 3.2
Alcohol tolerance: 16%
Resistant to sulfur dioxide: 45 mg/L total, 10 mg/L free
Optimum fermentation temperature: 20 -25°C (68-77°F) in sequential inoculation, up to 32°C (80.6°F) in
co-inoculation.

APPLICATIONS
▪ Malolactic fermentation in white and red wines under difficult conditions
▪ Structured red wines
▪ Co-inoculation
▪ Sequential inoculation

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
▪ Rehydrate bag contents in 20 times its weight of chlorine-free water between 20-23°C (68-74°F).
▪ Wait 15 minutes.
▪ Stir, then inoculate directly into wine at a temperature around 20°C (68°F). Attention: be sure that
difference in temperature between bacteria suspension and wine is less than 6-8°C (10.8-14.4°F).
▪ Mix by closed pump over.
▪ Keep temperature of wine between 20-25°C (68-77°F) until end of fermentation.
