Good flocculation with compact lees and a relatively neutral flavor and aroma contribution are also properties of the EC-1118. Notes : The EC-1118 strain is recommended for all types of wines, including sparkling, and late harvest wines and cider. It may also be used to restart stuck fermentations.
