I guess I’m partially looking for reassurance for my neuroses. I just pitched Avante into my California Malbec must. Think it’s fine for this style? (1.087 OG, 3.8 pH)
All the recommendations out there suggest using another yeast for Malbec, and Malbec doesn’t seem to be a grape mentioned when searching for this yeast.
The other yeasts I have on hand are RC212, EC-1118, the “red” Red Star yeast, and KV-1116. Would these have been better yeasts to use? Is there a sensory component I should expect to be missing from not using one of the yeasts recommended for Malbec?
