(Formerly
Pasteur Champagne)
Pasteur Champagne is a strain of Saccharomyces Bayanus and has been derived from a pure culture slant from the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France. This strain has been widely used in the U.S. since 1968. It produces a vigorous fermentation and has a good tolerance to ethanol. Champagne Yeast will readily ferment grape musts and fruit juices to dryness with little residual sugar and has good tolerance to free sulfur dioxide.
This strain is recommended for all white wines, some reds and for fruit juices. Although this yeast is somewhat flocculent, it is not commonly used for sparkling wine. Pasteur Champagne has been recommended for restarting stuck fermentations and ferments best between 15°-30° C (59°-86° F).
