Allows for the expression of indigenous microflora
ENOFERM ASSMANSHAUSEN™ is a color-friendly strain with a long lag phase, allowing for the expression of indigenous microflora which can enhance complexity.
- Promotes spicy (clove, nutmeg) and fruit flavors and aromas.
- Long lag phase with a slow to medium fermentation rate
- If desired, lag phase can be reduced and fermentation rate increased if AMH is added to 10% of the total juice/must volume for eight hours then added into full volume
- AMH's long lag phase will allow native yeast and bacteria to deplete juice/must nutrients, so rehydration in GO-FERM PROTECT EVOLUTION™ or GO-FERM STEROL FLASH™ and good fermentation nutrition is highly recommended
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae cerevisiae strain (reclassified from S. kudriavzevii in 2021)
- Originating from the Geisenheim Research Institute, Germany
Frequently used in: Pinot noir, Zinfandel, Riesling, Petite Sirah, Gewürztraminer
Alcohol Tolerance: 15%
Nitrogen Needs: MEDIUM
Temp. Range: 68-86°F
