Red Star Premier Prestige Wine Yeast – Pack of 5 – With North Mountain Supply Freshness Guarantee
Pack of five Red Star Premier Prestige active dry wine yeast sachets designed for aromatic white and rosé wines. Enhances fruit and floral character, ferments cleanly to dryness, and is easy to use with direct pitching into must or juice.
Red Star Premier Prestige Wine Yeast is a versatile, high-performance strain selected for crafting expressive white and rosé wines at home. This active dry yeast is known for boosting aromatic intensity, especially in wines made from grapes rich in thiols and terpenes. Whether you are working with neutral varietals that need an aromatic lift or highly expressive grapes like Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat, Premier Prestige helps enhance fruity, citrus, floral, and tropical notes while maintaining balance and freshness.
Designed for fast and reliable fermentation, Premier Prestige performs well at cooler temperatures and can tolerate alcohol levels up to about 15% ABV. It ferments to dryness with relatively low nitrogen requirements, making it a dependable choice even in musts that are not heavily supplemented with nutrients. The resulting wines typically show a clean, bright profile with good mouthfeel, roundness, and minimal off aromas.
This yeast is also easy to use. Each 5 g sachet is intended to treat roughly 5 gallons of juice or must, and no rehydration step is required—simply direct pitch into the fermenter and mix to distribute. That convenience makes it appealing to both beginners and experienced winemakers working on small or multiple batches.
Sold and packaged by North Mountain Supply, this 5-pack of Red Star Premier Prestige Wine Yeast is handled to maintain freshness and performance. If the yeast does not activate before the printed expiration date, North Mountain Supply offers free troubleshooting and replacement to help ensure a successful fermentation.
