Vintners Harvest Yeast CR51 – 8g

Vintner’s Harvest CR51 is a red-wine yeast selected for light, fruity styles where fresh varietal character is more important than heavy structure. One 8g sachet is suitable for a 19–25L batch.

Fermentation guidance

• Recommended temperature range: 16–24°C
• Suitable for lighter, fruit-forward red wines
• Use one sachet for approximately 19–25L

Pitch and manage the fermentation according to your wine recipe. Temperature, nutrient level and the composition of the must will influence fermentation speed and the finished aroma profile.

For fuller-bodied reds with greater depth and complex aromatics, compare Vintner’s Harvest R56. Both 8g sachets suit approximately 19–25L, but CR51 favours lighter fruit-forward styles and a 16–24°C range, while R56 is listed at 18–28°C.
