Delivers fore-mouth volume, big mid-palate structure and intense grainy tannins. Intense red fruit expression is also evident.

Lalvin ICV-D80® was isolated by the Institut Cooperatif du Vin (ICV) in France from 180 strains found in the Rhone valley. The strain (from the Côte Rôtie area) was isolated from fermentations characterised by high sugars, low nitrogen and a high concentration of polyphenols.

It is one of the best yeast to optomise big tannin volume and is characterized by ripe fruit, smoke and a licorice finish. Its high production of fatty acids, accentuates the rich and concentrated aromas normally found in varieties such as shiraz, whilst also helping to enhance individuality in less aromatic varieties. It’s a good choice for barrel aged reds due to the significant impact on structure and good colour stability features.

To optomise red complexity, it is recommended that wines fermented with Lalvin ICV-D80® are blended with red wines fermented with ICV D254. The ICV D80® complements ICV-D254 by bringing more tannin intensity.
