Muscidne Wine Review by Zpop (Posted on 11/20/12): Product Rating:

I ave used this Yeast two different types of wine one a blush made of 50/50 mix of dark and gold berries. The results were good. The other type of wine was made of Cowart berries. Slowly adding sugar to the must over three weeks gives a good aroma and fruity taste. Just remember that this yeast will take more sugar than montrochet.
Good yeast Review by DC (Posted on 12/15/12): Product Rating:

I used this on a white grape and allowed to ferment till finished. It produced a medium dryness with a bit of a sesame seed aroma. Have not tried it on a red grape yet. No problems with fermentation time or temp issues.
Immediate results Review by Ilana (Posted on 12/23/12): Product Rating:

I added this yeast and very soon there were bubbles in the air lock. Very short lag time. But it took a long time to finish up, with some residual sweetness.
My goodness Review by Mead Man (Posted on 2/16/13): Product Rating:

Maybe I got a special pack, but this is one of the most aggressive yeasts I have ever seen. Finished primary fermentation in only about 13 days. Tasted it when racking and found it had literally ate all of the sugar out of the must and left a strong alcohol taste. Great for dry meads!
