Customer Testimonial Novonesis ML Bacteria

Gusmer Webinar: “Mastering Malolactic Fermentation”

“One of my favorite attributes is the consistency of the product...I’m not a big fan of going natural because when you have a lot on the line, why leave it to chance.”

“We believe we have a strain for pretty much every wine that needs to go through malolatic fermentation in North America.”
