LALVIN VP41® is a flexible and adaptable strain that is appreciated for its ability to enhance aromatic complexity, richness, and mouthfeel in different styles of red, white, and rosé wines. Usage: Add directly to wine and mix thoroughly. Storage: Dated expiration. For short term (<18 months) store at 4°C (39°F).

VP-41 was a Patrol Squadron of the U.S. Navy. The squadron was established as Patrol Squadron 21 (VP-21) on 1 March 1944, redesignated Patrol Bombing Squadron 21 (VPB-21) on 1 October 1944, redesignated Patrol Squadron 21 (VP-21) on 15 May 1946, redesignated Medium Patrol Squadron (Seaplane) 11 (VP-MS-11) on 15 November 1946, redesignated ...

VP41 was chosen for its good implantation, steady fermentation, high alcohol tolerance (up to 15% v/v), enhanced mouthfeel and wine structure. This strain will ferment well with a pH above 3.2 and total SO2 levels up to 50-60 ppm. In red wines, increased spicy, cherry and red fruit flavors have been noted.

LALVIN VP41® was isolated in Italy during an extensive European Union collaboration to research natural Oenococcus oeni strains. Numerous wineries and enological institutes participated in this four-year effort to isolate, study and select malolactic bacteria with unique winemaking properties.

The 1-Step® VP41 (same strain as Lalvin MBR VP41) starter kit combines a highly effective malolactic starter culture with an activator to induce malolactic fermentation in an 18–24 hour build-up procedure. VP41 has proven effective at high alcohol levels (up to 16% v/v), pH above 3.1, total SO2 up to 60 ppm, and temperature down to 16°C (61°F).

O 2. Beside its good resistance, VP41TM is recognized for its sensory contribution to red berry fruit aroma, its late and slow degradation of citric acid and very low production of diac. ons. The 1-STEPTM starter Kit consists of a malolactic active freeze …

Lactic acid bacteria in powder form, obtained by lyophilisation and packaged in laminated foil. Active freeze-dried bacteria Oenococcus oeni sp. and maltodextrine as carrier. Rehydrate contents of one sachet in clean chlorine-free water at 20°C, maximum 15 minutes.

LALVIN VP41™ demonstrates excellent tolerance to alcohol (near 16.5% v/v) and a good tolerance of low pH (down to 3.1). LALVIN VP41™ is sensitive to low temperatures and performs best when wine temperature is maintained above 16 degrees C. This strain contributes to the red berry fruit aroms in red wine.
