Excellence® TXL produces round wines with great aromatic finesse. It implants quickly and is highly adaptable, capable of fermenting even in difficult conditions, and helps to reveal varietal aromas. A clean aromatic profile is ensured thanks to the absence of compounds that mask the aromas, and a low production of fermentary aromas. Excellence® TXL is well-suited for whites and roses, wines aged on lees, and barrel fermentation. Excellence® TXL is the result of a directed breeding program, uniting the mother strains’ fermentation capacities with the production of aromas, thanks to three alleles that give it the following characteristics:

SSU1-R : confers a better resistance to sulfites and thus a better implantation and faster start to the alcoholic fermentation.

POF (-) : minimal production of vinyl-phenols and vinyl-guaiacol, compounds that give a pharmaceutical smell and mask other aromas.

URE2(-) : deletion of the “catabolic nitrogen repression”, ensuring more volatile thiols are revealed.
