What yeast for concord?

[ftut]

I'm getting ready to start a batch of concord and wondered if any of you could tell me what the best yeast would be? Thanks,

I have used Pateur Red and Montrachet before with pretty good results.

I would recommend the Montrachet too

Montrachet it is then. I'll be pitching it at about 6 this evening. Thanks for your help.

MONTRACHET is good but for fruity flavor try Cote de Blanc

That's true Tepe, but for Concord you hardly need to go out of your way to preserve the fruitiness. There will always be plenty of the fruitiness left. The Montrachet helps with the other aspects of it being a red wine.
