Cover Story: This study investigates the microbial ecology that develops during grape drying and spontaneous fermentations of Vin Santo production in two Tuscan wineries. Indeed, Vin Santo is a passito wine produced mainly in Tuscany, and, in its traditional production, the fermentation occurs naturally. Results showed that non-Saccharomyces yeasts were the dominant microbial population during grape drying in different successions, whereas the spontaneous fermentations were both dominated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The vinifications of both wineries displayed very similar intraspecific biodiversity indices of S. cerevisiae populations and no single strain of S. cerevisiae dominated the entire fermentation process. This work provided insight into the microbial communities and their metabolomic interactions during Vin Santo production. View this paper
