ABSTRACT
Pinot noir grapes require careful management in the winery to prevent loss of color density and promote aging stability. Winemaking with flocculent yeast has been shown to increase color density, which is desirable to consumers. This research explored interspecies sequential inoculation and co-flocculation of commercial yeast on Pinot noir wine color. Sedimentation rates of six non-Saccharomyces species and two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were assayed individually and in combination. The most flocculent pairings, Torulaspora delbrueckii BIODIVA with S. cerevisiae RC212 or VL3, were used to ferment 20 L Pinot noir must. Sequential fermentations produced wines with greater color density at 420 + 520 nm, confirmed by sensory panel. Total and monomeric anthocyanin concentrations were decreased in sequentially fermented wines, despite being the main source of red wine color. BIODIVA adsorbed more anthocyanins than S. cerevisiae, indicating a greater number of cell wall mannoproteins in flocculent yeast, that could then result in a later release of anthocyanins and enhance copigment formation in red wines.
