What we liked

  • + High alcohol tolerance of up to 18 percent suits strong or late harvest musts
  • + Wide 50 to 95 F fermentation range tolerates cool cellars and warm rooms
  • + Listed as a floral ester producer when fermented cool with nutrients added

Trade-offs

  • - The floral character will not suit makers who want a neutral, clean profile
  • - Needs nutrient additions to reach the aromatics the listing describes
