Abstract

S. cerevisiae strains were isolated and identified from vineyards and the spontaneous fermentation must at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain in China, and their oenological properties and fermentation abilities were analyzed. From the total of 199 S. cerevisiae strains isolated and identified, 14 isolates (F4-13, F5-7, F5-9, F5-12, F5-18, F5-19, F5-21, F6-8, F6-23, F9-23, SXY-4, HT-10, ZXY-17, MXY-19) exhibited excellent tolerance to sugar, SO2, and ethanol. Among the isolates, the strain F4-13 exhibited the better oenological properties, with low H2S production (+), suitable flocculation ability (58.74%), and reducing-L-malic acid ability (49.07%), and generated high contents of polyphenol, anthocyanin, tannin, terpenes, and higher alcohols, which contributed to the improvement of the red fruity and floral traits of the wines. The obtained results provide a strategy for the selection of indigenous S. cerevisiae for wine fermentation to produce high-quality wine with regional characteristics.
