The packets state that an entire one can be used for up to 5 gallons of solution depending upon what you are making. There are 5 grams of yeast in each packet so if you are making only one gallon of wine you need one gram or 1/5 of the package. Be sure to follow the directions stated on the packet in terms of prepping the yeast as well as storage and use thereafter of remaining yeast in the packet. I have done so and things worked quite well. A small digital scale or mini spoons are useful for measuring. Approximately 1/4 tsp of yeast is more than adequate for a gallon of wine. Having enough sugar and other necessary components for wine will yield ABV between 10-15%. Keep that in mind if you plan to make beer which I haven't.

Is this yeast appropriate to use for red or white wine? I need one that will work for all types.

Yes this yeast is useful in producing dry, full bodied red and white wines.

Can this yeast be frozen? As in buy it in quantity and store it in my freezer until I use it? If so, how long can it be kept?

Yes it can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 6 months

tomato wine? apple wine? Answer only if you have done either tomato or apple..other fruits or vegetables don't count. Thanks!

Never tried tomatoes but apple juice can be fermented, as witness hard cider and apple jack. The Red Star Rouge will do the job although you might consider Lalvin's EC1118 yeast. I suspect tomato juice might be too acidic for yeast.
