    Description

    • ICV OKAY is an excellent choice for winemakers aiming to produce clean, aromatic wines with bright fruit expression and a smooth mouthfeel
    • Its reliable fermentation performance and low production of undesirable compounds make it suitable for a variety of wine styles
    • Enhance aromatic freshness with clean fermentation

    ICV OKAY is a premium wine yeast strain developed to deliver clean fermentations and vibrant aromatic profiles in white, rosé, and light red wines. Selected through advanced techniques for its low production of sulfur compounds and acetaldehyde, it ensures wines with pure fruit expression and balanced mouthfeel.

    • Clean Fermentation Profile: Produces minimal levels of volatile acidity, SO₂, and H₂S, preserving the wine's natural aromas.
    • Aromatic Clarity: Enhances citrus, tropical fruit, and floral notes, resulting in a crisp and refreshing finish.
    • Alcohol Tolerance: Effective up to 16% ABV, accommodating various wine styles.
    • Temperature Range: Performs optimally between 54°F (12°C) and 86°F (30°C), offering flexibility in fermentation strategies.
    • Low Nutrient Requirements: Efficient fermentation with minimal nutrient supplementation, simplifying the winemaking process.
    • Short Lag Phase: Initiates fermentation quickly, ensuring a steady and reliable process.

    Applications:

    • White Wines: Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Riesling, enhancing bright fruit expressions and crisp acidity.
    • Rosé Wines: Accentuates fresh berry and citrus notes, contributing to a vibrant and clean profile.
    • Aromatic Whites: Gewürztraminer and Viognier, highlighting floral and tropical fruit characteristics.
    • Sparkling Wines: Suitable for both traditional and Charmat methods, providing a clean and aromatic base.

    Flavor Profile:

    • Citrus & Tropical Fruits: Prominent notes of lemon zest, lime, and pineapple.
    • Floral Undertones: Subtle hints of honeysuckle, orange blossom, and jasmine.
    • Bright Acidity: Maintains a crisp finish, enhancing the perception of freshness.
    • Silky Mouthfeel: Contributes to a smooth and balanced palate.

    Usage:

    • Rehydration: Rehydrate in 10 times its weight of chlorine-free water at 95°F (35°C) for 15–20 minutes. Stir gently to avoid clumping.
    • Pitch Rate: Use 1–1.5 grams per gallon (0.25–0.4 grams per liter) for optimal fermentation and flavor development.
    • Nutrient Addition: While LALVIN ICV OKAY has low nutrient demands, supplementation is recommended in low-nitrogen musts to ensure consistent performance.
    • Fermentation Temperature: Maintain between 54°F and 86°F to optimize ester production and prevent off-flavors.
    • Cold Stabilization: Ideal for cold fermentation processes to preserve crispness and aromatic freshness.
