SafOeno CK S102 is ideal for strong, aromatic white wines. This yeast was selected in the Val de Loire region of France on Sauvignon Blanc. Able to intensify aromatic profiles in a range of difficult conditions, it is a recommended yeast strain for winemakers looking to produce whites and rosés.
SafOeno CK S102 encourages the expression of fruity thiols of aromatic cultivars like Sauvignon Blanc, Gros and Petit Manseng. This advantage also makes it a yeast of choice to produce varietal rosés with a great aromatic finesse from cultivars like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. It reinforces the aromatic potential of terpenic cultivars like Muscat, Gewürztraminer and Riesling.
Thanks to a high ester production, SafOeno CK S102 adds exciting possibilities to neutral grape varieties to obtain white and fruity rosés wines with different aroma profiles depending on the fermentation temperature.
High release and conversion of fruity thiols (3-MH and 3-MHA), and high fruity acetate ester production even at lower temperatures.
