Saccharomyces Bayanus  –  Very good all round strain, best choice for high alcohol and fortified wines but also excellent for most country wines, sweet sparkling wines and ciders.

If you only had one wine yeast strain, this would be the strain because whilst being relatively neutral in character SN9 does introduce excellent weight and structure no matter the must or fruit and produces a congener profile that always compliments the wine.

SN9 is particularly good when fermenting flower or low fruit recipes which often lack vinosity, weight and depth.
