Mangrove Jack's R56 Full Body Red Wine Yeast

Mangrove Jack's R56 is selected to support body, mouthfeel and complex fruit character in richer red wines.

It is a good fit where you want more weight and roundness than a light, fruit-first red strain provides.


Yeast Details

  • Fermentation Temperature: 18–28°C
  • Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 15% ABV
  • Character: Rich fruit, body and mouthfeel
  • Good For: Full-bodied red wines and rich dark-fruit wines

How to Use

Sprinkle directly onto the prepared must and ferment within the recommended range. Provide suitable yeast nutrition where needed.


Substitute Yeasts

Gervin GV2 is a robust alternative for full-bodied reds. Mangrove Jack's VR21 is another strong choice when structure is the priority.


Winemaker's Tip

R56 is most useful when the recipe already has enough fruit, tannin and extract to benefit from a fuller mouthfeel.
