Harnessing improved understanding ofBrettanomyces bruxellensisbiology to mitigate the risk of wine spoilage

Abstract: In the competitive global wine industry, production of wines reflective of their place of origin is critical. While the evidence is mounting that microbial populations in vineyards and wineries differ geographically and represent an important component of ‘terroir’, there are some microbial influences on wine style that are generally considered undesirable, regardless of whether the offending species is part of the natural winemaking microflora. Brettanomyces spoilage of wine remains one of the most important … Show more

“…Sulfur dioxide is the most common antimicrobial agent used in winemaking. However, very tolerant B. bruxellensis strains have been reported 36 . Particularly, in Australia 92% of the isolates are genetically close to a strain that has be shown to be triploid by genome sequencing and highly tolerant to SO 2 (normal growth at more than 0.6 mg.L −1 mSO 2 ) 34 .…”

“…This phenotypic variation makes it difficult to predict the spoilage potential of B. bruxellensis and is therefore a major concern for winemakers. For example, across several studies the concentration of molecular SO 2 (mSO 2 ) required to stop B. bruxellensis ’ growth ranged from 0.2 to 1.0 mg.L −1 36 . This observed variability was at least partly due to the use of different strains.…”

“…An effective SO 2 management can keep Brettanomyces yeasts under control (Curtin, Varela, & Borneman, ). This indicates that the measurement of the ratio of free and total SO 2 can be successfully used to control this spoilage yeast.…”

“…Brettanomyces bruxellensis readily proliferates and can survive in wine for long periods, particularly following alcoholic fermentation and during wine ageing in oak barrels 19 . This yeast can cause numerous wine faults, including turbidity in unfortified wines, excessive volatile acidity in sherry, mousy taint and rancid isovaleric acid.…”
