Red Star Premiere Rouge, formerly Pasteur Red, a strain of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, has been derived from the collection of the Institute Pasteur in Paris. It is a strong, even fermenter that produces full-bodied reds. This yeast encourages the development of varietal fruit flavors, balanced by complex aromas, especially when using grapes from the Cabernet family. It may be necessary to cool the fermenting must to prevent unwanted temperature increase. This yeast is reported to give character to less robust red grapes, or those picked before optimum development.
This yeast is a strong fermenter and produces full-bodied red wines. Particularly well suited for grapes from the Zinfandel and Cabernet families as well as Berry and Cherry Wine, Gamay, Merlot, Pinot, and Syrah. Ideal Temperature Range 64-86°F. Alcohol Tolerance 16%.
