Abstract
This research aimed to analyze the impact of two different non-Saccharomyces yeast species on the aromatic profile of red wines made from the cv. Babić (Vitis vinifera L.) red grape variety. The grapes were obtained from two positions in the Middle and South of Dalmatia. This study compared a control treatment with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) strain as a type of sequential inoculation treatment with Lachancea thermotolerans (Lt x Sc) and Torulaspora delbrueckii (Td x Sc). The focus was on the basic wine parameters and volatile aromatic compound concentrations determined using the SPME-Arrow-GC/MS method. The results revealed significant differences in cis-linalool oxide, geraniol, neric acid, and nerol, which contribute to the sensory profile with floral and rose-like aromas; some ethyl esters, such as ethyl furoate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl lactate, ethyl 2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoate, ethyl 3-hydroxy butanoate, diethyl glutarate, and diethyl succinate, contribute to the aromatic profile with fruity, buttery, overripe, or aging aromas. A sensory evaluation of wines confirmed that Td x Sc treatments exhibited particularly positive aromatic properties together with a more intense fullness, harmony, aftertaste, and overall impression.

Competition for Nitrogen Resources: An Explanation of the Effects of a Bioprotective Strain Metschnikowia pulcherrima on the Growth of Hanseniaspora Genus in Oenology. Foods 2024; 13:724. [PMID: 38472837 DOI: 10.3390/foods13050724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
As a biological alternative to the antimicrobial action of SO2, bioprotection has been proposed to winemakers as a means to limit or prevent grape musts microbial alteration. Competition for nitrogenous nutrients and for oxygen are often cited as potential explanations for the effectiveness of bioprotection. This study analyses the effect of a bioprotective M. pulcherrima strain on the growth of one H. valbyensis strain and one H. uvarum strain. Bioprotection efficiency was observed only against H. valbyensis inoculated at the two lowest concentrations. These results indicate a potential species-dependent efficiency of the bioprotective strain and a strong impact of the initial ratio between bioprotective and apiculate yeasts. The analysis of the consumption of nitrogen compounds revealed that leucine, isoleucine, lysine and tryptophan were consumed preferentially by all three strains. The weaker assimilation percentages of these amino acids observed in H. valbyensis at 24 h growth suggest competition with M. pulcherrima that could negatively affects the growth of the apiculate yeast in co-cultures. The slowest rate of O2 consumption of H. valbyensis strain, in comparison with M. pulcherrima, was probably not involved in the bioprotective effect. Non-targeted metabolomic analyses of M. pulcherrima and H. valbyensis co-culture indicate that the interaction between both strains particularly impact lysin and tryptophan metabolisms.

Bioprotection Efficiency of Metschnikowia Strains in Synthetic Must: Comparative Study and Metabolomic Investigation of the Mechanisms Involved. Foods 2023; 12:3927. [PMID: 37959046 PMCID: PMC10649255 DOI: 10.3390/foods12213927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Three Metschnikowia strains marketed as bioprotection yeasts were studied to compare their antimicrobial effect on a mixture of two Hanseniaspora yeast strains in synthetic must at 12 °C, mimicking pre-fermentative maceration by combining different approaches. The growth of the different strains was monitored, their nitrogen and oxygen requirements were characterised, and their metabolomic footprint in single and co-cultures studied. Only the M. fructicola strain and one M. pulcherrima strains colonised the must and induced the rapid decline of Hanseniaspora. The efficiency of these two strains followed different inhibition kinetics. Furthermore, the initial ratio between Metschnikowia and Hanseniaspora was an important factor to ensure optimal bioprotection. Nutrient consumption kinetics showed that apiculate yeasts competed with Metschnikowia strains for nutrient accessibility. However, this competition did not explain the observed bioprotective effect, because of the considerable nitrogen content remaining on the single and co-cultures. The antagonistic effect of Metschnikowia on Hanseniaspora probably implied another form of amensalism. For the first time, metabolomic analyses of the interaction in a bioprotection context were performed after the pre-fermentative maceration step. A specific footprint of the interaction was observed, showing the strong impact of the interaction on the metabolic modulation of the yeasts, especially on the nitrogen and vitamin pathways.

Abstract
Finding alternatives to the use of chemical inputs to preserve the sanitary and organoleptic quality of food and beverages is essential to meet public health requirements and consumer preferences. In oenology, numerous manufacturers already offer a diverse range of bio-protection yeasts to protect must against microbiological alterations and therefore limit or eliminate sulphites during winemaking. Bio-protection involves selecting non-Saccharomyces yeasts belonging to different genera and species to induce negative interactions with indigenous microorganisms, thereby limiting their development and their impact on the matrix. Although the effectiveness of bio-protection in the winemaking industry has been reported in numerous journals, the underlying mechanisms are not yet well understood. The aim of this review is to examine the current state of the art of field trials and laboratory studies that demonstrate the effects of using yeasts for bio-protection, as well as the interaction mechanisms that may be responsible for these effects. It focuses on the yeast Metschnikowia pulcherrima, particularly recommended for the bio-protection of grape musts.

Mucalo A, Budić-Leto I, Zdunić G. Effect of Sequential Fermentation with Lachancea thermotolerans/ S. cerevisiae on Aromatic and Flavonoid Profiles of Plavac Mali Wine. Foods 2023; 12:1912. [PMID: 37174449 PMCID: PMC10177817 DOI: 10.3390/foods12091912] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, the effects of sequential fermentation of Lachancea thermotolerans/S. cerevisiae on the production of Plavac Mali wines were investigated in comparison with the commonly used inoculation of the commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain and spontaneous fermentation. A total of 113 aroma compounds and 35 polyphenolic compounds were analyzed. Sequential inoculation resulted in a decrease in alcohol content and pH (up to 0.3% v/v and 0.12 units, respectively) and an increase in total acidity (0.6 g/L, expressed as tartaric acid). The wines produced by spontaneous fermentation exhibited the greatest diversity of volatile compounds and the highest concentration of C13 norisoprenoids, lactones, and other compounds. These wines exhibited maximum hydroxycinnamic acids, prodelphinidin monomer units, epigallocatechin, B1, B3, and B4 dimers, and total flavan-3-ols. Sequential inoculation decreased the content of the aromas and polyphenols in the wines. The practical significance of this procedure lies in the selective effect on aroma compounds, the decrease in green aromas, undetectable volatile phenols, and the decrease in bitter and astringent compounds such as gallic acid, flavan-3-ol monomers (catechin and epicatechin), and dimers (B1, B2, B3, and B4). This work demonstrates the potential of sequential and spontaneous fermentation to improve the aromatic characteristics and overall quality of Plavac Mali wines.

Abstract
The effects of (fresh/aged) brine and (pool/jar) containers on the flavor characteristics of pickled chili peppers were investigated based on a multivariate analysis integrated with kinetics modeling. The results showed that the effect of brine on organic acid, sugar, and aroma was more dominant than that of containers, while free amino acids production was more affected by containers than brines. Chili pepper fermented using aged brine exhibited higher acidity (3.71−3.92) and sugar (7.92−8.51 mg/g) than that using fresh brine (respective 3.79−3.96; 6.50−9.25 mg/g). Besides, chili peppers fermented using pool containers showed higher free amino acids content (424.74−478.82 mg/100 g) than using a jar (128.77−242.90 mg/100 g), particularly with aged brine. As for aroma, the number of volatiles in aged brine was higher (88−96) than that in fresh brine (76−80). The contents of the esters, alcohols, and ketones were significantly higher in the aged brine samples than those in fresh brine (p < 0.05), while terpenes in chili pepper fermented using the pool were higher than those using the jar. In general, jar fermentation with aged brine contributed more flavor to pickled chili peppers than other procedures.

Abstract
Grapes harbour a plethora of non-conventional yeast species. Over the past two decades, several of the species have been extensively characterised and their contribution to wine quality is better understood. Beyond fermentation, some of the species have been investigated for their potential as alternative biological tools to reduce grape and wine spoilage. However, such studies remain limited to a few genera. This work aimed to evaluate the antagonistic activity of grape must-derived non-conventional yeasts against Botrytis cinerea and non-Botrytis bunch-rotting moulds and to further elucidate mechanisms conferring antifungal activity. A total of 31 yeast strains representing 21 species were screened on different agar media using a dual culture technique and liquid mixed cultures, respectively. Pichia kudriavzevii was the most potent with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 102 cells/mL against B. cinerea but it had a narrow activity spectrum. Twelve of the yeast strains displayed broad antagonistic activity, inhibiting three strains of B. cinerea (B05. 10, IWBT FF1 and IWBT FF2), a strain of Aspergillus niger and Alternaria alternata. Production of chitinases and glucanases in the presence of B. cinerea was a common feature in most of the antagonists. Volatile and non-volatile compounds produced by antagonistic yeast strains in the presence of B. cinerea were analysed and identified using gas and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, respectively. The volatile compounds identified belonged mainly to higher alcohols, esters, organosulfur compounds and monoterpenes while the non-volatile compounds were cyclic peptides and diketopiperazine. To our knowledge, this is the first report to demonstrate inhibitory effect of the non-volatile compounds produced by various yeast species.

Abstract
The use of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in sequential fermentation is a suitable biotechnological process to provide specific oenological characteristics and to increase the complexity of wines. In this work, selected strains of Lachancea thermotolerans and Starmerella bombicola were used in sequential fermentations with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and compared with spontaneous and pure S. cerevisiae fermentation trials in Verdicchio grape juice. Torulaspora delbrueckii together with the other two non-Saccharomyces strains (L. thermotolerans, S. bombicola) in multi-sequential fermentations was also evaluated. Wines, obtained under winery vinification conditions, were evaluated for their analytical and sensorial profile. The results indicated that each fermentation gave peculiar analytical and aromatic features of the final wine. L. thermotolerans trials are characterized by an increase of total acidity, higher alcohols and monoterpenes as well as citric and herbal notes. S. bombicola trials showed a general significantly high concentration of phenylethyl acetate and hexyl acetate and a softness sensation while multi-sequential fermentations showed a balanced profile. Spontaneous fermentation was characterized by the production of acetate esters (ethyl acetate and isoamyl acetate), citrus and herbal notes, and tannicity. The overall results indicate that multi-starter fermentations could be a promising tool tailored to the desired features of different Verdicchio wine styles.

Abstract
The aim of a significant part of current wine technology research is to better understand and monitor mixed culture fermentations and optimize the microbiological processes and characteristics of the final wine. In this context, the yeast couple formed by Lachancea thermotolerans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae is of particular interest. The diverse results observed in the literature have shown that wine characteristics are dependent on both interactions between yeasts and environmental and fermentation parameters. Here, we took a multiparametric approach to study the impact of fermentation parameters on three different but related aspects of wine fermentation: population dynamics, fermentation, and volatile compound production. An experimental design was used to assess the effects of four independent factors (temperature, oxygenation, nitrogen content, inoculum ratio) on variables representing these three aspects. Temperature and, to a lesser extent, oxygenation and the inoculum ratio, were shown to constitute key factors in optimizing the presence of Lachancea thermotolerans during fermentation. The inoculum ratio also appeared to greatly impact lactic acid production, while the quantity of nitrogen seemed to be involved more in the management of aroma compound production. These results showed that a global approach to mixed fermentations is not only pertinent, but also constitutes an important tool for controlling them.

Abstract
Beer is an alcoholic beverage produced by the metabolism of yeasts and made from water, malt, and hops. In recent years, the interest in craft beers has increased considerably due to the demand for new beverages and the consumer's willingness to pay higher prices. This article explores the sensorial changes produced in craft beers by using different Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts with several instrumental and sensory analyses performed. After a primary fermentation process with Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Lachancea thermotolerans, it was observed that green beer brewed with L. thermotolerans had a lower pH (3.41) due to the significant production of l-lactic acid (3.98 g/L) compared to that brewed with S. cerevisiae. Following, the bottle conditioning was carried out with a culture of S. cerevisiae, L. thermotolerans, Hanseniaspora vineae, or Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Of note is the increased production of aromatic esters, including 2-phenylethyl acetate in the H. vineae conditioning, which is associated with a high aromatic quality, as well as ethyl lactate in all samples, whose main fermentation was carried out with L. thermotolerans. Although this research is at an early stage, future complementary studies may shed more light on this topic.

Abstract
Yeast plays a key role in the production of alcoholic beverages. Effective fermentation requires appropriate conditions to ensure the production of high-quality beer. The paper discusses the effect of dry brewing yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces pastorianus) after rehydration with water exposed to low-temperature, low-pressure glow plasma (PTW) in the atmosphere of air (PTWAir) and nitrogen (PTWN) in the course of the fermentation process, the formation of volatile compounds and other quality parameters of the finished beer. The obtained results show that the lager yeast strain initiated the process of fermentation faster after rehydration in the presence of PTWAir compared to all of the other treatments. It was observed that PTWAir significantly changed the composition of volatile compounds in the finished beer, especially by increasing the number of terpenes, which are compounds that positively shape the aroma of beer. In the case of PTWN samples, lower alcohol content, real extract, apparent extract and amount of biomass were observed in all analyzed strains.

Vicente J, Navascués E, Calderón F, Santos A, Marquina D, Benito S. An Integrative View of the Role of Lachancea thermotolerans in Wine Technology. Foods 2021; 10:foods10112878. [PMID: 34829158 PMCID: PMC8625220 DOI: 10.3390/foods10112878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2021] [Revised: 11/17/2021] [Accepted: 11/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The interest in Lachancea thermotolerans, a yeast species with unusual characteristics, has notably increased in all ecological, evolutionary, and industrial aspects. One of the key characteristics of L. thermotolerans is the production of high quantities of lactic acid compared to other yeast species. Its evolution has mainly been driven by the influence of the environment and domestication, allowing several metabolic traits to arise. The molecular regulation of the fermentative process in L. thermotolerans shows interesting routes that play a complementary or protective role against fermentative stresses. One route that is activated under this condition is involved in the production of lactic acid, presenting a complete system for its production, showing the involvement of several enzymes and transporters. In winemaking, the use of L. thermotolerans is nowadays mostly focused in early–medium-maturity grape varieties, in which over-ripening can produce wines lacking acidity and with high concentrations of ethanol. Recent studies have reported new positive influences on quality apart from lactic acid acidification, such as improvements in color, glutathione production, aroma, malic acid, polysaccharides, or specific enzymatic activities that constitute interesting new criteria for selecting better strains. This positive influence on winemaking has increased the availability of commercial strains during recent years, allowing comparisons among some of those products. Initially, the management of L. thermotolerans was thought to be combined with Saccaharomyces cerevisiae to properly end alcoholic fermentation, but new studies are innovating and reporting combinations with other key enological microorganisms such as Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Oenocous oeni, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, or other non-Saccharomyces.

Phenotypic characterization of cell-to-cell interactions between two yeast species during alcoholic fermentation. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2021; 37:186.

Abstract
Microbial multispecies ecosystems are responsible for many biotechnological processes and are particularly important in food production. In wine fermentations, in addition to the natural microbiota, several commercially relevant yeast species may be co-inoculated to achieve specific outcomes. However, such multispecies fermentations remain largely unpredictable because of multilevel interactions between naturally present and/or co-inoculated species. Understanding the nature of such interactions has therefore become essential for successful implementation of such strategies. Here we investigate interactions between strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Lachancea thermotolerans. Co-fermentations with both species sharing the same bioreactor (physical contact) were compared to co-fermentations with physical separation between the species in a membrane bioreactor ensuring free exchange of metabolites. Yeast culturability, viability and the production of core metabolites were monitored. The previously reported negative interaction between these two yeast species was confirmed. Physical contact greatly reduced the culturability and viability of L. thermotolerans and led to earlier cell death, compared to when these yeasts were co-fermenting without cell-cell contact. In turn, in the absence of cell-cell contact, L. thermotolerans metabolic activity led to an earlier decline in culturability in S. cerevisiae. Cell-cell contact did not result in significant differences in the major fermentation metabolites ethanol, acetic acid and lactic acid, but impacted on the production of some volatile compounds.

Abstract
Climate change is affecting vineyards, resulting in grapes with a low acidity a high pH and sugar at harvest time. The most common procedure so far to improve the acidity and reduce the final pH of wines is to use tartaric acid, but wine can also be acidified microbiologically using Lachancea thermotolerans yeasts, a natural bio-tool that acidifies gradually during the first stage/days of fermentation. Two strains of L. thermotolerans were compared with one Saccharomyces cerevisiae at a pilot-scale under similar fermentation conditions and in duplicate. A sequential inoculation was performed on the third day for the non-Saccharomyces, producing only about 1 g/L of lactic acid, which was suitable for comparison with the Saccharomyces, to which 1.5 g/L of tartaric acid had been added to lower the final pH. The three fermentations ended with a total acidity without significant differences. A significant and normal feature of the L. thermotolerans yeasts is their higher propane-1,2,3-triol production, which was observed in the Laktia yeast, and the acetic acid was <0.3 g/L. The amount of volatile metabolites was generally higher for non-Saccharomyces and the increase was seen in carbonyl compounds, organic acids, lactones, fumaric compounds, and phenols. Finally, the sensory analysis showed that there were hardly any significant differences, even though the non-Saccharomyces had a higher quantity of volatile metabolites, which could lead to a good acceptance of the product, since biological acidification was used, generating a more natural product.

The Combined Use of Lachancea thermotolerans and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (former Lactobacillus plantarum) in Wine Technology. Foods 2021; 10:foods10061356.

Abstract
Most commercialized red wines are produced through alcoholic fermentation performed by yeasts of the Saccharomyces genus, and a second fermentation performed by lactic bacteria of the Oenococus oeni species once the first is completely finished. However, the classical process can suffer complications, of which the risks can increase in grape juices with high contents of sugar and pH. Due to climate change, these situations are becoming more common in the winemaking industry. The main risks in those scenarios are alcoholic-fermentation stops or sluggish and undesirable bacteria development while alcoholic fermentation is not finished yet and wine still contains residual sugars. The study propose a novel alternative that offers a solution or reduces the risk of those scenarios while increasing acidity, which is another serious problem of warm viticulture regions. The alternative consists of the combined use of Lachancea thermotolerans to reduce the pH of musts that suffer from a lack of acidity, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum) to achieve malic acid stability during the first stages of alcoholic fermentation, and Saccharomyces bayanus to complete the alcoholic fermentation in difficult wines of high potential alcohol degree of over 15% (v/v). The new proposed biotechnology produced wines with higher final concentrations in lactic acid, glycerol, color intensity, ethyl lactate and 2-phenyl ethyl acetate in 2.39 g/L, 0.52 g/L, 21%, 48% and 37% respectively than the classical methodology where Saccharomyces genus performs alcoholic fermentation and later Oenococus oeni performs malolactic fermentation. Additionally, the new alternative produced wines with lower concentration in ethanol, pH, acetic acid, ethyl acetate, diacetyl and 1-propanol in 0.37% (v/v), 0.26, 0.08 g/L, 22%, 69% and 28% respectively than the classic method.

Effect of Aeration on Yeast Community Structure and Volatile Composition in Uninoculated Chardonnay Wines. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
Uninoculated wines are regarded as having improved mouthfeel and texture and more complex flavor profiles when compared to wines inoculated with commercial S. cerevisiae strains. Uninoculated fermentation involves a complex microbial succession of yeasts and bacteria during fermentation. Microbial population dynamics are affected by several factors that can ultimately determine if a particular species or strain contributes to wine aroma and flavor. In this work, we have studied the effect of aeration, a common winemaking practice, on the yeast microbiota during uninoculated Chardonnay wine fermentation. The timing of aeration and then aeration intensity were evaluated across two successive vintages. While the timing of aeration significantly impacted fermentation efficiency across oxygen treatments, different levels of aeration intensity only differed when compared to the non-aerated control ferments. Air addition increased the viable cell population size of yeast from the genera Hanseniaspora, Lachancea, Metschnikowia and Torulaspora in both vintages. While in 2019, a high relative abundance was found for Hanseniaspora species in aerated ferments, in 2020, T. delbrueckii was visibly more abundant than other species in response to aeration. Accompanying the observed differences in yeast community structure, the chemical profile of the finished wines was also different across the various aeration treatments. However, excessive aeration resulted in elevated concentrations of ethyl acetate and acetic acid, which would likely have a detrimental effect on wine quality. This work demonstrates the role of aeration in shaping yeast population dynamics and modulating a volatile profile in uninoculated wines, and highlights the need for careful air addition to avoid a negative sensory impact on wine flavor and aroma.

Abstract
In the last few decades, the increase of ethanol in wine, due to global climate change and consumers’ choice is one of the main concerns in winemaking. One of the most promising approaches in reducing the ethanol content in wine is the use of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in co-fermentation or sequential fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this work, we evaluate the use of Starmerella bombicola and S. cerevisiae in sequential fermentation under aeration condition with the aim of reducing the ethanol content with valuable analytical profile. After a preliminary screening in synthetic grape juice, bench-top fermentation trials were conducted in natural grape juice by evaluating the aeration condition (20 mL/L/min during the first 72 h) on ethanol reduction and on the analytical profile of wines. The results showed that S. bombicola/S. cerevisiae sequential fermentation under aeration condition determined an ethanol reduction of 1.46% (v/v) compared with S. cerevisiae pure fermentation. Aeration condition did not negatively affect the analytical profile of sequential fermentation S. bombicola/S. cerevisiae particularly an overproduction of volatile acidity and ethyl acetate. On the other hand, these conditions strongly improved the production of glycerol and succinic acid that positively affect the structure and body of wine.

Abstract
The yeast Lachancea thermotolerans is of significant biotechnological interest, and selected strains of this species have become commonly used starter cultures in wine fermentation. However, the impact of this species on wine is frequently limited by the rapid dominance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains which are better adapted to wine alcoholic fermentation conditions. Previous studies have shown that the major limiting factor for L. thermotolerans competitive performance in the wine ecosystem is oxygen availability, and not ethanol levels as had been previously suggested. Here we investigated the transcriptional response of L. thermotolerans to anaerobiosis in wine fermentation conditions. The data show that L. thermotolerans broadly redirects gene expression towards genes involved in central carbon metabolism, lipid metabolism, remodeling of the cell wall as well as autophagy. Furthermore, the induction of genes that are likely involved in the generation of lactate indicates a redirection of metabolic flux towards this metabolite. The data provide the first insight into the oxygen-dependent response of L. thermotolerans and suggest potential genetic targets to improve lactate production and/or anaerobic fermentation performance of this yeast.

Abstract
During the winemaking process, alcoholic fermentation is carried out by a consortium of yeasts in which interactions occurs. The consequences of these interactions on the wine matrix have been widely described for several years with the aim of controlling the winemaking process as well as possible. In this review, we highlight the wide diversity of methodologies used to study these interactions, and their underlying mechanisms and consequences on the final wine composition and characteristics. The wide variety of matrix parameters, yeast couples, and culture conditions have led to contradictions between the results of the different studies considered. More recent aspects of modifications in the composition of the matrix are addressed through different approaches that have not been synthesized recently. Non-volatile and volatile metabolomics, as well as sensory analysis approaches are developed in this paper. The description of the matrix composition modification does not appear sufficient to explain interaction mechanisms, making it vital to take an integrated approach to draw definite conclusions on them.

Abstract
Growing consumer interest in new beer flavors is contributing to the application of innovative materials and non-Saccharomyces yeast in brewing. The goal of this study was to test the impact of the low lactic acid-producing Lachancea thermotolerans MN477031 strain on the process of fermenting beer wort, with two different concentrations of bitter compounds, and on the quality of the beer produced. Qualify factors were broadly analyzed, including ethanol content, apparent degree of fermentation, sugars, organic acids, free amino nitrogen, glycerol, volatile compounds, ions and so on. It was proven that the L. thermotolerans MN477031 strain demonstrated a high capacity for rapid initiation of wort fermentation, and a tolerance to hop-derived compounds. As a result, the alcohol content in beer from this method of production was approximately 20% lower, while the content of the real extract was significantly higher in comparison to commercial Safbrew T-58. This strain stands out from many strains of L. thermotolerans due to the low lactic acid production and only marginal influence on pH decrease compared to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Therefore, the potential of MN477031 in the production of different types of beer (not only sour) is very high. The composition of volatile compounds in L. thermotolerans beer differs—not only in terms of the use of the strain, but also in hop variety.

Abstract
One of the most important problems in the winemaking field is the increase of ethanol content in wine. Wines with high ethanol level negatively affect wine flavor and human health. In this study, we evaluated the use of a selected strain of Metschnikowia pulcherrima in immobilized form and under different aeration conditions, to reduce the ethanol content evaluating the volatile profile of the resulting wines. In a preliminary screening the best conditions regarding free/immobilized cells, static/aerated fermentation and inoculation level were identified. Bench-Top fermentation trials with different aeration conditions showed that the use of M. pulcherrima selected strain with aeration flow of 20 mL/L/min during the first 72 h of fermentation, led an ethanol reduction of 1.38% (v/v) in comparison with Saccharomyces cerevisiae control strain. The analytical profile of the resulting wines did not show any negative feature. Indeed, the concentration of ethyl acetate, that above its sensory threshold impacts negatively the wine sensory profile, was found at an acceptable level. On the other hand, an increase in the concentration of significant fruity and flower compounds was found.

Abstract
In the past, some microbiological studies have considered most non-Saccharomyces species to be undesirable spoilage microorganisms. For several decades, that belief made the Saccharomyces genus the only option considered by winemakers for achieving the best possible wine quality. Nevertheless, in recent decades, some strains of non-Saccharomyces species have been proven to improve the quality of wine. Non-Saccharomyces species can positively influence quality parameters such as aroma, acidity, color, and food safety. These quality improvements allow winemakers to produce innovative and differentiated wines. For that reason, the yeast strains Torulaspora delbrueckii, Lachancea thermotolerans, Metschnikowia pulcherrima, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and Pichia kluyveri are now available on the market. Other interesting species, such as Starmerella bacillaris, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, Hanseniospora spp., and others, will probably be available in the near future.

Abstract
Over the last decades there has been an increase in ethanol concentration in wine. High ethanol concentration may impact negatively wine flavor and can be associated with harmful effects on human health. In this study, we investigated a microbiological approach to reduce wine ethanol concentration, using three non-Saccharomyces yeast strains (Metschnikowia pulcherrima, Torulaspora delbrueckii and Zygosaccharomyces bailii) in sequential fermentations with S. cerevisiae under different aeration conditions. At the same time, we evaluated the volatile profile of the resulting reduced alcohol Chardonnay wines. Results showed that the non-Saccharomyces yeasts tested were able to reduce wine ethanol concentration when oxygen was provided. Compared to S. cerevisiae wines, ethanol reduction was 1.6% v/v, 0.9% v/v and 1.0% v/v for M. pulcherrima, T. delbrueckii and Z. bailii sequential fermentations, respectively. Under the conditions evaluated here, aeration did not affect acetic acid production for any of the non-Saccharomyces strains tested. Although aeration affected wine volatile profiles, this was depended on yeast strain. Thus, wines produced with M. pulcherrima under aeration of 0.05 volume of air per volume of culture per minute (VVM) showed excessive ethyl acetate content, while Z. bailli wines produced with 0.05 VVM aeration had increased concentrations of higher alcohols and volatile acids. Increased concentrations of these compounds over their sensory thresholds, are likely to impact negatively on wine sensory profile. Contrarily, all three non-Saccharomyces strains under 0.025 VVM aeration conditions produced wines with reduced ethanol concentration and acceptable chemical volatile profiles.

Abstract
The goal of this study is to assess to what extent non-Saccharomyces yeasts can introduce aromatic changes of industrial interest in fermentative, varietal and aged aromas of wine. Aroma precursors from Riesling and Garnacha grapes were extracted and used in two independent sequential experiments. Synthetic musts were inoculated, either with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) or with Pichia kluyveri (Pk), Torulaspora delbrueckii (Td) or Lachancea thermotolerans (Lt), followed by Sc. The fermented samples were subjected to anoxic aging at 50 °C for 0, 1, 2 or 5 weeks before an aroma analysis. The fermentative aroma profiles were consistently changed by non-Saccharomyces: all strains induced smaller levels of isoamyl alcohol; Pk produced huge levels of aromatic acetates and can induce high levels of fatty acids (FA) and their ethyl esters (EE); Td produced large levels of branched acids and of their EE after aging, and induced smaller levels of FA and their EE; Lt produced reduced levels of FA and their EE. The varietal aroma was also deeply affected: TDN (1,1,6-trimethyl-1,2- dihydronaphthalene) levels in aged wines were reduced by Pk and enhanced by Lt in Garnacha; the levels of vinylphenols can be much reduced, particularly by Lt and Pk. TD and Lt can increase linalool and geraniol in young, but not in aged wines.

Abstract
At one time, Saccharomyces spp. yeasts were the only option for use in winemaking due to their unique abilities to metabolize all grape juice sugars to ethanol. However, during the previous decade, several commercial non-Saccharomyces yeast products appeared in the biotechnology market. Some of them have slowly begun to establish new enological resources to solve modern winemaking challenges in the new century. Among these challenges, acidification in the warm-growing regions is of great concern for improving wine quality from those areas, particularly in light of the predictions of serious climate change. This review explores one of the most popular commercialized non-Saccharomyces yeast options in warm viticultural regions, Lachancea thermotolerans, and its influences on wine quality parameters, such as lactic acid, ethanol, glycerol, volatile acidity, volatile profiles, isovaleric acid, mannoproteins, polysaccharides, color, anthocyanins, amino acids, and sensory perception.
