GAIA™
For managing spoilage risks when transporting grapes or cold soaking reds
GAIA™ suppresses the growth and acetic acid production of native microorganisms like Kloeckera apiculata, acetic acid bacteria, and other microflora during the pre-fermentative stages. Once rehydrated, GAIA can be added directly to the grapes during harvest (with a sprayer or into each picking bin) or to red grapes at the beginning of cold soak.- Minimizes production of ethyl acetate and acetic acid from native microflora
- Preserves fruit characters and aromas
- Protect grapes and must for up to 5 days if the temperature is also <10°C (<50°F)
- Non-fermentative but can tolerate approximately 3% alcohol
- Metschnikowia fructicola strain
- Selected by the Institut Français de la Vigne et du Vin (IFV), France
Frequently used in: Pinot noir, or other reds undergoing cold soak
When to add GAIA: Directly to grapes or to must undergoing cold soak
When to add Saccharomyces: After cold soak or whenever fermentation is desired
Optimal conditions:
- Total SO2: <50 ppm
- Temp: 4-20°C (39-68°F)
Usage: Click here for rehydration instructions. Note: GAIA remains viable up to 9 hours after rehydration.
