Resumo(s)
A small experimental trial was conducted using four different Saccharomyces cerevisiae
commercial yeasts to inoculate the same Riesling must. This trial was performed at Mr.
Mick in Clare Valley, SA during the 2020 vintage. Riesling is one of the most important
varieties in this area, and therefore there is a lot of commercial importance for
determining which yeast to use to have the most desirable fermentation and to meet the
winemaking objectives. The four different yeast strains used in the study were Oenoferm
FREDDO, Maurivin PDM, Lalvin EC1118, and Lalvin QA23. A final panel tasting was the
main form of assessment for which yeast performed the best. Appearance, aroma, body,
taste and finish were the elements assessed, and an overall score was given for each
wine by each of the judges on the panel. Additionally, fermentation was monitored by
tracking the Baumé and the temperature twice daily, and after each wine was Baumédry,
enzymatic analysis was used to ensure no residual sugar remained. Although this
was a small-scale study and additional replications of the trial should be completed, the
initial results showed that Maurivin PDM was the most promising yeast. It completed
fermentation to dryness, resulted in the most desirable nose and mouth, was consistent
with Riesling varietal characteristics and properly expressed terroir. This yeast will be
used for Riesling in the future at Mr. Mick and at other wineries within the Clare Valley. In
addition to this small experimental trial, this dissertation covers an overall critique of the
winery operations at Mr. Mick, as part of a professional internship report
