BVNA partners with Lamothe-Abiet to offer a nutrient range that supports healthy, complete fermentations while enhancing aromatic expression and minimizing the risk of sluggish or stuck ferments. It spans simple mineral sources through advanced yeast-derived products rich in ergosterols, glutathione, and amino acids, covering complex nutrients, fermentation activators, and targeted aromatic solutions.
Key features
- Four categories: aromatic protection and boosters, complex nutrients, standard nutrients, and yeast protection
- Aroma Protect preserves and reveals varietal aromas through glutathione-rich inactivated yeast fractions
- OptiThiols and OptiEsters target specific aroma families, thiols and esters
- ŒnoStim Direct simplifies rehydration by eliminating the acclimatisation step
- Actibiol detoxifies the fermentation medium by adsorbing yeast inhibitors
- Majority of the range is EU Organic, NOP, and Vegan certified
We have been using OptiThiols on our rosé to protect juices from oxidation and increase the production of thiols. It is a very reliable product and has become an essential step for our rosé production. We saw an impressive impact on aromatic expression and an improvement in the quality of our wine.

Questions about our nutrients.
-
Grapes often lack adequate YAN (yeast assimilable nitrogen), vitamins, sterols, and other growth factors. Nutrient deficiency leads to slow fermentations, H₂S production, and poor aromatic expression.
-
ŒnoStim requires a standard rehydration step. ŒnoStim Direct can be added directly to the rehydration water without a separate acclimatisation step, simplifying cellar operations.
-
Typically at the start of fermentation, with yeast rehydration, and/or at one-third sugar depletion. Follow the individual product protocols for exact timing and dosage.
-
Most complex and aromatic nutrient products carry EU Organic and NOP certifications. Check individual product pages for certification details.
-
Stuck ferments are often triggered by low YAN, high alcohol, temperature stress, or toxic fatty acids. Proper nutrition at inoculation and mid-fermentation, using Actibiol and ŒnoStim, significantly reduces the risk.
