For deeply colored and structured red wines
SafŒno™ HD S62 is coming from the hybridization of two Lesaffre strains with the aim to combine their best characteristics towards the favoring of high polyphenol extraction and stabilization in addition to difficult fermentation conditions resistance for long ageing Premium reds.
Still White & Red wines. Dosage: 20 g/hl
Ingredients: yeast (Hybrid Saccharomyces cerevisiae x Saccharomyces bayanus), Emulsifier: E491 (sorbitan monostearate)
SafŒno™ HD S62 sensory features
Varietal respect
SafŒno™ HD S62 is characterized by a low production of higher alcohols and esters while increasing the final aromatic intensity. This strain will so help to produce very elegant but intense reds in respect with the cultivar such as Premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo, Malbec, Sangiovese, Grenache…
For blending bases
The moderate production of ethyl esters by this strain combined with a very high isoamyl acetate production, acting as a flavor enhancer, allows to systematically strengthen the aromatic intensity of the wine, particularly on fermentative notes. It makes this strain a really good tool to value neutral bases or to bring complexity to aromatic bases. This property leads as well to remove green aromas due to early picked grapes for delightful wines.
Considering its low SO2 production, this strain is particularly suitable for low SO2 content wines and favor malolactic fermentations.
SafŒno™ HD A54 will help winemakers adding value to their young and non-varietal wines.
Bordeaux Merlot, 15% v/v, 15 days post fermentative maceration
SafŒno™ HD S62 has especially been selected for its ability to strongly favor polyphenol extraction.

- Lesaffre know-how and continuous yeast production process improvement lead to obtain an exceptional quality of dry yeasts able to resist to a very wide range of use, cold or no rehydration included, without affecting their viability, kinetic and/or analytical profile.Winemakers can choose usage conditions that fit the best their needs, i.e.:
- Direct inoculation: Pour the yeast on the surface of at least 10 times their weight of must (possibly directly on the top of the tank or during tank filling after settling for whites and rosés). Gently stir to avoid or break clumps. Immediately transfer into the tank via a pumping over with aeration (or homogenize tank volume).
- With prior rehydration: Pour the yeast on the surface of 10 times their weight of tap water at room temperature. Gently stir to avoid or break clumps. Wait for 20 minutes and transfer into the tank via a pumping over with aeration.
