    Pinnacle Tropica 500g

    Used to increase tropical fruit aromas (guava, passion fruit, pineapple, and lychee) in white wines. Please call for availability.
    SKU: WZZZ1294

    Please call for availability. 

    Applications

    Tropica should be used to increase tropical fruit aromas in white wines. It releases guava, passion fruit and pineapple aromas on the nose, with a distinctive guava/lychee character on the palate. It is recommended for use on grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chenin Blanc and Colombard.

    Fermentation characteristics 

    • Strong fermenter at temperatures ranging between 14-18°C (57-68°F).
    • A fermentation aid is strongly recommended for low nutrient juices and/or fermenting below 14°C (57°F).
    • Alcohol tolerance can reach up to 14% v/v without a fermentation aid, although higher alcohols can be achieved with improved nutrition, particularly toward the end of fermentation.
    • There is some foam produced with this yeast, especially under stressful conditions at low temperatures; we don’t recommend fermenting below 13°C (55°F).

    Nitrogen requirements

    Standard nitrogen additions via DAP or ammonia will result in successful fermentations with this yeast; however a complex nutrient is recommended for cold fermentations <14°C (57°F) and/or low nutrient juices to ensure a successful fermentation.
