Oenoferm® Rouge – Wine Yeast for Fruity, Berry-like Red Wines with Stable Color

Oenoferm® Rouge is a proven clone selection of Oenoferm® Klosterneuburg (yeast strain LW 317-29) and was specially developed for the fermentation of red mashes and red musts. It supports gentle color development and color retention during fermentation.
