Viniflora® superior bacteria

With our broad knowledge regarding lactic acid bacteria and fermentation management, we have built up a strong range of malolactic bacteria bringing to winemakers the best for their wines.

Once again the idea behind our approach is quite simple: grapes production and alcoholic fermentations are today well managed and controlled by winemakers. But there is a lack of focus on malolactic fermentation management... destroying an important part of the good work previously done.

Chr. Hansen brings winemakers a powerful tool to control their malolactic fermentations through a range of bacteria ready for direct inoculation (the 'DVS' technology). This concept of direct inoculation brings:

• CONVENIENCE: open a bag, pour its content in your wine tank or your cask... that´s all! The magic of direct inoculation will then operate... and the bacteria will do their work.
• CONSISTENCY: our expertise and our knowledge is bacteria production. We ensure through a top level quality control and an exclusive quality test developed by our team  called the 'MACC test', that you only receive bacteria adapted to wine conditions and ready to work.
• CONTROL: using Viniflora® you take control of your malolactic fermentation. You know how many days the fermentation will take, you know exactly what species is working in your winery, you can carefully preserve the work done previously to deliver the best grapes and through the alcoholic fermentation.
• RETURN on INVESTMENT: the benefits of using Viniflora® are various and are highly related to the type of wine, the type of winery. Nevertheless Viniflora® - DVS bacteria are used more and more around the world due to their low 'cost in use', lower than any other malolactic fermentation management solution: spontaneous or indirect inoculation kits.
