Description

A yeast strain that really brings out aromatic components in white wines, especially Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Viognier and Semillion. Also a great choice for mead fermenations where it has a significant aroma/flavor input. Specifically Fruity/Floral aromas are emphasized through the natural liberation of terpenes found in these varieties. What we think is particularly unique about this strain is the creation of smoky/spicy aromas. Also selected as a commercial yeast strain for its ability to create mouthfeel volume and richness. So to recap - fruity/floral/smoky/spicy aromas and flavors with good mouthfeel... where do we sign up! Lallemand recommends adding Go-Ferm during rehydration and Fermaid K to the ferment to ensure that this strain ferments to dryness.

Great results with 58W3 yeast with off-dry white wines.
After fermenting gewurztraminer, gewurz/riesling blends or similar whites with 58W3 balance your wine with citric acid (I like to dissolve citric acid first with a little hot water). Balance the sweetness so the taste is crisp and nicely balanced not too dry or too sweet. Be prepared to repeat balancing 2 or 3 times about 2 weeks apart - let the acidity & sweetness blend together.

Great for cider and hybrid white
This will be my 4th year using this yeast for hard cider and Phoenix white hybrid wine. I think it's an excellent cider yeast - accentuating the fruit flavors, and have used it in a blend with RH4600 for the hybrid white grape Phoenix. I used a Champagne yeast one year for the cider and everyone asked me to go back to 58W3.

Just what I wanted for pinot grigio
Just what I wanted. I like this a lot in pinot grigio when using a second strain. I prefer to blend with d-47 half and half after cold stabilization just before bottling. Had very good results using this from Chilean juice last year I will try replocating that in a larger batch this spring.
