• Good for 66 gallons

Viniflora CH35 is a freeze-dried culture of Oenococcus oeni. This malolactic bacteria has been selected and adapted especially for direct inoculation of rose and white wines. Viniflora CH35 has been selected for its outstanding performance in malolactic fermentation of difficult white wines. This strain is the perfect match for rose and white wines but can also be used with success in red wines.

Application:
Viniflora CH35 should be added to dry wine, right after the alcoholic fermentation. No rehydration or reactivation is required.
