The Lavlin RC 212 yeast is traditionally used in the Burgundy region for full red wines and is a favorite of home winemakers seeking similar big reds. It has good alcohol (14%) and high temperature (86 F.) tolerance and excellent color stability. It is quite suitable for use with non-grape red fruit (plums, prickly pear cactus fruit, pomegranates) and berries (blackberries, raspberries, dewberries, mulberries). One pack is good for up to 5 gallons.
