The Wine Yeast Nutrition School 2018 hosts its 2nd educational seminar in Bordeaux

The 2nd Edition of the International WYN School was held June 5-6th, 2018 in Bordeaux, France. The goal of the educational seminars is to promote the  knowledge and understanding of the mechanisms involved during alcoholic fermentation, particularly related to the nutrition of wine yeast to achieve a successful AF and maximizing wine quality.

Attending the event in Bordeaux, we had 43 guests, along with academic speakers and Lallemand experts, covering different markets such as: US, Canada, Japan, South Africa, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Serbia, Russia, Croatia, Macedonia and Australia. Topics included nutritional imbalance and the impact on yeast, the role of environmental factors, how to compensate with wine yeast nutrients, yeast protection during rehydration, etc. Practical cases and tastings accompanied the academic presentations.

Guests were treated to a visit to La Cité des Vins in Bordeaux to enjoy the permanent exhibitions: a sensory adventure to discover the cultures and civilizations of wine and the next day, visits were organized to some of Bordeaux finest cellars in Médoc, Château Pichon-Longueville Baron, Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse and Château Latour.

The event was once again a big success where the participants came away with more knowledge on yeast nutrition and offered the opportunity to strengthen the relationships with our clients and partners.
