Influence of yeast population on characteristics of the wine obtained in spontaneous and inoculated fermentations of must from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Vitis vinifera</Emphasis> Lado

This work describes the influence of yeast population on the chemical characteristics of wine obtained by spontaneous and inoculated fermentation of must from Vitis vinifera Lado, a minor white grapevine autochthonous to Galicia (NW Spain). The study was carried out for two consecutive years. The results showed that musts derived from Lado presented a high acidity though the potential alcohol level was acceptable. The genetic diversity of S. cerevisiae strains isolated from spontaneous fermentations was low, probably due to must characteristics, although these did not interfere with the implantation of the commercial strains used. Analyses showed that the wines subsequently produced had high alcoholic levels and very high acidities (pH 3.0) as was expected from must composition. Wines obtained from spontaneous fermentations had a lower alcohol content but higher total acidity than those from inoculated fermentations. Monovarietal wines produced from Lado were poorly evaluated in sensorial tests because of their unbalanced structure and sourness; however, when they were mixed with other autochthonous white varieties with less acidity, the resulting wines were well accepted.     

Genetic diversity of wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains in an experimental winery from Galicia (NW Spain)

Genetic diversity of wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains involved in spontaneous fermentations was studied by analysis of mitochondrial DNA restriction patterns. Yeasts were isolated at different stages of fermentations with must from three different white grapevine varieties, Albariño, Godello and Treixadura, which are autochthonous from Galicia. Nineteen different patterns out of a total of 446 strains analysed were identified, but only a few of them appeared at high frequency and therefore were able to lead the fermentation process. Some strains were common to all fermentations; however, most of them were a minority being only found at low frequency for one or two specific grape varieties. The dominant strain was different for each variety except in one case, suggesting that some strains are better adapted to certain must conditions.     

Survival of commercial yeasts in the winery environment and their prevalence during spontaneous fermentations

Inoculation of active dry yeasts during the wine-making process has become a common practice in most wine-producing regions; this practice may affect the diversity of the indigenous population of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the winery. The aim of this work was to study the incidence of commercial yeasts in the experimental winery of Estación de Viticultura e Enoloxía de Galicia (EVEGA) and their ability to lead spontaneous fermentations. To do this, 64 spontaneous fermentations were carried out in the experimental cellar of EVEGA over a period of 7 years. Samples were taken from must and at the beginning, vigorous and final stages of fermentation. A representative number of yeast colonies was isolated from each sample. S. cerevisiae strains were characterised by analysis of mitochondrial DNA restriction patterns. The results showed that although more than 40 different strains of S. cerevisiae were identified, only 10 were found as the dominant strain or in codominance with other strains in spontaneous fermentations. The genetic profiles (mtDNA-RFLPs) of eight of these strains were similar to those of different commercial yeasts that had been previously used in the EVEGA cellar. The remaining two strains were autochthonous ones that were able to reach implantation frequencies as high of those of commercial yeasts. These results clearly indicated that commercial wine yeasts were perfectly adapted to survive in EVEGA cellar conditions, and they successfully competed with the indigenous strains of S. cerevisiae, even during spontaneous fermentations. On the other hand, autochthonous dominant strains that presented desirable oenological traits could be of interest to preserve wine typicity.     

The effect of Debina grapevine indigenous yeast strains of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Metschnikowia</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces</Emphasis> on wine flavour

The spontaneous alcoholic fermentation of grape must is a complex microbiological process involving a large number of various yeast species, to which the flavour of every traditional wine is largely attributed. Whilst Saccharomyces cerevisiae is primarily responsible for the conversion of sugar to alcohol, the activities of various non-Saccharomyces species enhance wine flavour. In this study, indigenous yeast strains belonging to Metschnikowia pulcherrima var. zitsae as well as Saccharomyces cerevisiae were isolated and characterized from Debina must (Zitsa, Epirus, Greece). In addition, these strains were examined for their effect on the outcome of the wine fermentation process when used sequentially as starter cultures. The resulting wine, as analyzed over three consecutive years, was observed to possess a richer, more aromatic bouquet than wine from a commercial starter culture. These results emphasize the potential of employing indigenous yeast strains for the production of traditional wines with improved flavour.     

Newly generated interspecific wine yeast hybrids introduce flavour and aroma diversity to wines

Increasingly, winemakers are looking for ways to introduce aroma and flavour diversity to their wines as a means of improving style and increasing product differentiation. While currently available commercial yeast strains produce consistently sound fermentations, there are indications that sensory complexity and improved palate structure are obtained when other species of yeast are active during fermentation. In this study, we explore a strategy to increase the impact of non-Saccharomyces cerevisiae inputs without the risks associated with spontaneous fermentations, through generating interspecific hybrids between a S. cerevisiae wine strain and a second species. For our experiments, we used rare mating to produce hybrids between S. cerevisiae and other closely related yeast of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex. These hybrid yeast strains display desirable properties of both parents and produce wines with concentrations of aromatic fermentation products that are different to what is found in wine made using the commercial wine yeast parent. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, that the introduction of genetic material from a non-S. cerevisiae parent into a wine yeast background can impact favourably on the wine flavour and aroma profile of a commercial S. cerevisiae wine yeast.     

Selection of an autochthonous Saccharomyces strain starter for alcoholic fermentation of Sherry base wines

Several indigenous Saccharomyces strains from musts were isolated in the Jerez de la Frontera region, at the end of spontaneous fermentation, in order to select the most suitable autochthonous yeast starter, during the 2007 vintage. Five strains were chosen for their oenological abilities and fermentative kinetics to elaborate a Sherry base wine. The selected autochthonous strains were characterized by molecular methods: electrophoretic karyotype and random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) and by physiological parameters: fermentative power, ethanol production, sugar consumption, acidity and volatile compound production, sensory quality, killer phenotype, desiccation, and sulphur dioxide tolerance. Laboratory- and pilot-scale fermentations were conducted with those autochthonous strains. One of them, named J4, was finally selected over all others for industrial fermentations. The J4 strain, which possesses exceptional fermentative properties and oenological qualities, prevails in industrial fermentations, and becomes the principal biological agent responsible for winemaking. Sherry base wine, industrially manufactured by means of the J4 strain, was analyzed, yielding, together with its sensory qualities, final average values of 0.9 g/l sugar content, 13.4 % (v/v) ethanol content and 0.26 g/l volatile acidity content; apart from a high acetaldehyde production, responsible for the distinctive aroma of “Fino”. This base wine was selected for “Fino” Sherry elaboration and so it was fortified; it is at present being subjected to biological aging by the so-called “flor” yeasts. The “flor” velum formed so far is very high quality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study covering from laboratory to industrial scale of characterization and selection of autochthonous starter intended for alcoholic fermentation in Sherry base wines. Since the 2010 vintage, the indigenous J4 strain is employed to industrially manufacture a homogeneous, exceptional Sherry base wine for “Fino” Sherry production.

Yeast assessment during alcoholic fermentation inoculated with a natural “pied de cuve” or a commercial yeast strain

The present study has been carried out in an organic winery established in 2003 in the Denomination of Origin “Sierras de Málaga” (Southern Spain) region during the 2007 vintage. The aim of this work was to ascertain the yeast microflora present in the winery and during the vinifications and to obtain a collection of autochthonous S. cerevisiae strains from this area. Yeast populations from three vats containing fermenting musts from different grape varieties were analysed. Two of them were inoculated with a natural “pied de cuve” while the third one was sown with a rehydrated commercial yeast strain. A total of 382 yeasts were isolated and identified, initially by restriction analysis of ribosomal DNA and further by sequencing of this region. Non-Saccharomyces yeasts were found in all three musts but they practically disappeared as the fermentations progressed. Analysis of mitochondrial DNA RFLP revealed 13 different restriction patterns of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, five of them similar to those of commercial strains used in the winery. Commercial strains were found even in vats inoculated with a “pied de cuve” generated by spontaneous fermentation of a must sample. The analysis of samples recovered from different winery surfaces and equipments demonstrated that non-Saccharomyces and both commercial and autochthonous Saccharomyces strains were part of the resident microflora in the winery. Biodiversity of autochthonous S. cerevisiae in fermentation vats was low but two of them were able to compete with the commercial ones and they were isolated even at the end of the fermentation.     

Yeast species associated with spontaneous wine fermentation of Cabernet Sauvignon from Ningxia,China

The eastern base of the Helan Mountains in Ningxia is a fast developing wine production area in China. Of urgent necessity to the Ningxia wine industry is to be able to produce wines with typical regional characteristics. It is well known that autochthonous yeast species and strains play an important role in introducing local character or terroir into the winemaking practice. The aim of this study was to investigate indigenous yeast species diversity and preselect desirable S. cerevisiae strains in the Ningxia region. Four hundred wine-related yeast colonies were isolated from Cabernet Sauvignon musts in three vineyards at the beginning, middle and final stages of spontaneous fermentations. Yeast species were first classified according to colony morphologies on Wallerstein Laboratory Nutrient Agar (WL) and confirmed by sequencing of the D1/D2 domain of the 26S rRNA gene. Nine unique colony morphology types were profiled on WL agar and three new types were found. After sequence analysis of representative colonies from each WL group, nine yeast species were identified, namely H. uvarum, H. occidentalis, M. pulcherrima, C. zemplinina, H. vineae, I. orientalis, Z. bailii, P. kluyveri and S. cerevisiae. The non-Saccharomyces yeasts appeared mainly in the early stage of the fermentation while H. uvarum, I. orientalis and P. kluyveri were able to remain in the final stage. Fourty-six S. cerevisiae isolates were preselected according to physiological characteristics and twelve strains with valuable fermentation properties were obtained.     

Yeast Diversity and Persistence in Botrytis-Affected Wine Fermentations

Culture-dependent and -independent methods were used to examine the yeast diversity present in botrytis-affected (“botrytized”) wine fermentations carried out at high (~30°C) and ambient (~20°C) temperatures. Fermentations at both temperatures possessed similar populations of Saccharomyces, Hanseniaspora, Pichia, Metschnikowia, Kluyveromyces, and Candida species. However, higher populations of non-Saccharomyces yeasts persisted in ambient-temperature fermentations, with Candida and, to a lesser extent, Kluyveromyces species remaining long after the fermentation was dominated by Saccharomyces. In general, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis profiles of yeast ribosomal DNA or rRNA amplified from the fermentation samples correlated well with the plating data. The direct molecular methods also revealed a Hanseniaspora osmophila population not identified in the plating analysis. rRNA analysis also indicated a large population (>10⁶ cells per ml) of a nonculturable Candida strain in the high-temperature fermentation. Monoculture analysis of the Candida isolate indicated an extreme fructophilic phenotype and correlated with an increased glucose/fructose ratio in fermentations containing higher populations of Candida. Analysis of wine fermentation microbial ecology by using both culture-dependent and -independent methods reveals the complexity of yeast interactions enriched during spontaneous fermentations.     

Yeast microbiota associated with spontaneous sourdough fermentations in the production of traditional wheat sourdough breads of the Abruzzo region (Italy)

The aims of this study were to describe the yeast community of 20 sourdoughs collected from central Italy and to characterize the sourdoughs based on chemical properties. A polyphasic approach consisting of traditional culture-based tests (spore-forming and physiological tests) and molecular techniques (PCR-RFLP, RAPD-PCR, PCR-DGGE) and chemical analysis (total acidity, acids, and sugar contents), was utilized to describe the yeast population and to investigate the chemical composition of the doughs. PCR-RFLP analysis identified 85% of the isolates as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with the other dominant species being Candida milleri (11%), Candida krusei (2.5%), and Torulaspora delbrueckii (1%). RAPD-PCR analysis, performed with primers M13 and LA1, highlighted intraspecific polymorphism among the S. cerevisiae strains. The diversity of the sourdoughs from the Abruzzo region is reflected in the chemical composition, yeast species, and strain polymorphism. Our approach using a combination of phenotypic and genotypic methods identified the yeast species in the 20 sourdough samples and provided a complete overview of the yeast populations found in sourdoughs from the Abruzzo region.     

Comparison between Yeasts from Grape and Agave Musts for Traits of Technological interest

Summary In Mexico there are different alcoholic beverages produced from agave juices from different agave plants, which are cooked, fermented and distilled. For tequila production only Agave tequilana is allowed. In this study we compared yeast strains of different species from different origin (agave and grape juice) for parameters of technological interest, such as SO₂ and copper resistance, ethanol tolerance and enzymatic activities. All agave strains were found to be more resistant to SO₂ and agave non-Saccharomyces yeasts were more tolerant to ethanol, whereas grape strains exhibited positive results for β-glucosidase and β-xylosidase activities. As regards fermentations of Agave tequilana juice with ethanol added at different concentrations, only agave Saccharomyces strains were more tolerant to ethanol than grape strains.     

Patagonian wines: implantation of an indigenous strain of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</Emphasis> in fermentations conducted in traditional and modern cellars

In this work we evaluate the implantation capacity of the selected S. cerevisiae indigenous strain MMf9 and the quality of the produced wines in a traditional (T) and a modern (M) cellar with different ecological and technological characteristics in North Patagonia (Argentina). Red musts were fermented in 10,000 l vats using the indigenous strain MMf9 as well as the respective controls: a fermentation conducted with a foreign starter culture (BC strain) in M cellar and a natural fermentation in T cellar. Since commercial S. cerevisiae starters are always used for winemaking in M cellar and in order to compare the results, natural fermentations and fermentations conducted by the indigenous strain MMf9 were performed at pilot (200 l) scale in this cellar, concomitantly. Thirty indigenous yeasts were isolated at three stages of fermentation: initial, middle and end. The identification of the yeast biota associated to vinifications was carried out using ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 PCR-RFLP. The intra-specific variability of the S. cerevisiae populations was evaluated using mtDNA-RFLP analysis. Wines obtained from all fermentations were evaluated for their chemical and volatile composition and for their sensory characteristics. A higher capacity of implantation of the indigenous MMf9 strain was evidenced in the fermentation carried out in M cellar (80% at end stage) than the one carried out in T cellar (40%). This behaviour could indicate that each cellar differs in the diversity of S. cerevisiae strains associated to wine fermentations. Moreover a higher capacity of implantation of the native starter MMf9 with regard to the foreign (BC) one was also found in M cellar. The selected indigenous strain MMf9 was able to compete with the yeast biota naturally present in the must. Additionally, a higher rate of sugar consumption and a lower fermentation temperature were observed in vinifications conducted by MMf9 strain with regard to control fermentations, producing wines with favourable characteristics. Even when its implantation in T fermentation was lower than that observed in M one, we can conclude that the wine features from MMf9 fermentations were better than those from their respective controls. Therefore, MMf9 selected indigenous strain could be an interesting yeast starter culture in North Patagonian wines.     

Experimental approach for target selection of wild wine yeasts from spontaneous fermentation of “Inzolia” grapes

The aim of this research was the study of indigenous yeasts isolated from spontaneous fermentation of Inzolia grapes, one of the most widespread native white grapes in Sicily (Italy). The use of selective medium for the isolation and the screening for sulphur dioxide tolerance were useful for the first selection among 640 isolates. The yeasts characterized by high SO₂ tolerance were identified at species level by restriction analysis of ITS region; although the majority of isolates were identified as S. cerevisiae, some non-Saccharomyces yeasts were found. Forty-seven selected yeasts, both S. cerevisiae and non-Saccharomyces yeasts, were characterized for genetic and technological diversity. The genetic polymorphism was evaluated by RAPD-PCR analysis, whereas the technological diversity was analyzed by determining the main secondary compounds in the experimental wines obtained by inoculating these yeasts. Both the molecular and metabolic profiles of selected yeasts were able to clearly discriminate S. cerevisiae from non-Saccharomyces yeasts. This research was useful for the constitution of a collection of selected indigenous yeast strains, including S. cerevisiae and non-Saccharomyces species possessing interesting enological traits. This collection represents a source of wild yeasts, among of which it is possible to select indigenous starters able to maintain the specific organoleptic characteristics of Inzolia wine.     

Fermentation of Agave tequilana juice by Kloeckera africana: influence of amino-acid supplementations

This study aimed to improve the fermentation efficiency of Kloeckera africana K1, in tequila fermentations. We investigated organic and inorganic nitrogen source requirements in continuous K. africana fermentations fed with Agave tequilana juice. The addition of a mixture of 20 amino-acids greatly improved the fermentation efficiency of this yeast, increasing the consumption of reducing sugars and production of ethanol, compared with fermentations supplemented with ammonium sulfate. The preference of K. africana for each of the 20 amino-acids was further determined in batch fermentations and we found that asparagine supplementation increased K. africana biomass production, reducing sugar consumption and ethanol production (by 30, 36.7 and 45%, respectively) over fermentations supplemented with ammonium sulfate. Therefore, asparagine appears to overcome K. africana nutritional limitation in Agave juice. Surprisingly, K. africana produced a high concentration of ethanol. This contrasts to poor ethanol productivities reported for other non-Saccharomyces yeasts indicating a relatively high ethanol tolerance for the K. africana K1 strain. Kloeckera spp. strains are known to synthesize a wide variety of volatile compounds and we have shown that amino-acid supplements influenced the synthesis by K. africana of important metabolites involved in the bouquet of tequila. The findings of this study have revealed important nutritional limitations of non-Saccharomyces yeasts fermenting Agave tequilana juice, and have highlighted the potential of K. africana in tequila production processes.     

Autochthonous fermentation starters for the industrial production of Negroamaro wines

The aim of the present study was to establish a new procedure for the oenological selection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains isolated from natural must fermentations of an important Italian grape cultivar, denoted as “Negroamaro”. For this purpose, 108 S. cerevisiae strains were selected as they did not produce H₂S and then assayed by microfermentation tests. The adopted procedure made it possible to identify 10 strains that were low producers of acetic acid and hydrogen sulphide and showed that they completed sugar consumption during fermentation. These strains were characterized for their specific oenological and technological properties and, two of them, strains 6993 and 6920, are good candidates as industrial starter cultures. A novel protocol was set up for their biomass production and they were employed for industrial-scale fermentation in two industrial cellars. The two strains successfully dominated the fermentation process and contributed to increasing the wines’ organoleptic quality. The proposed procedure could be very effective for selecting “company-specific” yeast strains, ideal for the production of typical regional wines. “Winery” starter cultures could be produced on request in a small plant just before or during the vintage season and distributed as a fresh liquid concentrate culture.     

Introducing a New Breed of Wine Yeast: Interspecific Hybridisation between a Commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae Wine Yeast and Saccharomyces mikatae

Interspecific hybrids are commonplace in agriculture and horticulture; bread wheat and grapefruit are but two examples. The benefits derived from interspecific hybridisation include the potential of generating advantageous transgressive phenotypes. This paper describes the generation of a new breed of wine yeast by interspecific hybridisation between a commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeast strain and Saccharomyces mikatae, a species hitherto not associated with industrial fermentation environs. While commercially available wine yeast strains provide consistent and reliable fermentations, wines produced using single inocula are thought to lack the sensory complexity and rounded palate structure obtained from spontaneous fermentations. In contrast, interspecific yeast hybrids have the potential to deliver increased complexity to wine sensory properties and alternative wine styles through the formation of novel, and wider ranging, yeast volatile fermentation metabolite profiles, whilst maintaining the robustness of the wine yeast parent. Screening of newly generated hybrids from a cross between a S. cerevisiae wine yeast and S. mikatae (closely-related but ecologically distant members of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto clade), has identified progeny with robust fermentation properties and winemaking potential. Chemical analysis showed that, relative to the S. cerevisiae wine yeast parent, hybrids produced wines with different concentrations of volatile metabolites that are known to contribute to wine flavour and aroma, including flavour compounds associated with non-Saccharomyces species. The new S. cerevisiae x S. mikatae hybrids have the potential to produce complex wines akin to products of spontaneous fermentation while giving winemakers the safeguard of an inoculated ferment.     

A quick screening method to identify β-glucosidase activity in native wine yeast strains: application of Esculin Glycerol Agar (EGA) medium

One hundred and fifty-four yeast strains were isolated from grapes and musts of Uruguayan vineyards and wineries. Only thirty strains showed β-glucosidase activity in Esculin Glycerol Agar (EGA) solid medium. Twenty-one were non-Saccharomyces and nine were Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. The objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability of Esculin Glycerol Agar (EGA) solid medium for screening β-glucosidase activity in native yeasts strains. Halo sizes measured in the EGA solid medium were correlated to the Glycosyl-Glucose (GG) indexes measured after fermentation of grape musts with each strain. The two S. cerevisiae strains with the best performance were selected for further fermentations on a Muscat Miel grape must, rich in bound monoterpenes. The levels of free linalool, hodiol I and geraniol increased significantly as compared to fermentation with a commercial wine yeast strain. These results show the suitability of this simple and economic medium to identify S. cerevisiae glucosidase producers with a potential impact on real winemaking conditions. On the other hand, great variability was found for the non-Saccharomyces strains, and this would demand further studies for each species. In conclusion, the use of EGA solid medium shows that the screening method is suitable for exploring the glucosidase activity of native strains of S. cerevisiae and shows good correlation with its real impact on free aroma compounds in the final wine.     

Influence of cultivation procedure for <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</Emphasis> used as pitching agent in industrial spent sulphite liquor fermentations

The cell viability and fermentation performance often deteriorate in fermentations of spent sulphite liquor (SSL). This investigation therefore addresses the question of how different cultivation conditions for yeast cells influence their ability to survive and boost the ethanol production capacity in an SSL-based fermentation process. The strains used as pitching agents were an industrially harvested Saccharomyces cerevisiae and commercial dry baker’s yeast. This study therefore suggests that exposure to SSL in combination with nutrients, prior to the fermentation step, is crucial for the performance of the yeast. Supplying 0.5 g/l fresh yeast cultivated under appropriate cultivation conditions may increase ethanol concentration more than 200%.     

Influence of grape treatment on the wine yeast populations isolated from spontaneous fermentations

AIM: To study the influence of different methods of grape treatment in wineries on the diversity of the yeast species in spontaneous fermentations. METHODS AND RESULTS: Grapes were crushed and pressed in three different ways followed by spontaneous fermentation. The same grape material picked and crushed aseptically directly in the vineyard served as control. Yeasts isolated at different stages of the fermentation were characterized by 5.8S-ITS-RFLP. Yeasts of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex were additionally analysed by microsatellite polymerase chain reaction fingerprinting. The diversity of yeast species isolated from winery fermentations was much greater than from the vineyard fermentation in respect to yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces as well as non-Saccharomyces. CONCLUSIONS: Oenonogical methods alter significantly the yeast diversity in spontaneous fermentations of grape juice. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Managing spontaneous fermentations successfully depends not only on choosing the suitable grapes but also on the crushing and pressing techniques leading to different yeast populations.
