The quality department of Fermentis hereby certifies that:
Active Dry Yeasts are authorized in wine production according to the point 5 of the
Annex IA of European Regulation (EC) 606/2009 laying down certain detailed rules for
implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 as regards the categories of
grapevine products, oenological practices and the applicable restrictions.
Active Dry Yeasts are therefore authorized in the production of wine made from
organic grapes.
According to the Annex VIII bis of the European Regulation (EU) 203/2012 amending
Regulation (EC) 889/2008 laying down certain detailed rules for implementing Council
Regulation (EU) 834/2007, the use of Oenological Active Dry Yeasts is authorized
in organic wine production. Moreover, the note (*) of this annex mentions: “derived
from organic raw materials if available”.
To our most recent knowledge, the strains mentioned here above commercialized
by the Lesaffre Group are not available under organic form. As a consequence, they
can be used under their conventional form for organic wine production.
