Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of microorganisms and fermentation industry, and particularly relates to a Smithsonian yeast strain for fruit wine fermentation and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As the quality of life continues to improve, people are paying more and more attention to their health. Long-term consumption of high-alcohol wine can damage vital organs such as the heart and liver. Therefore, fruit wines with low alcohol content, rich nutrition and unique flavor are favored by consumers.

[0003] Traditional fruit wine is fermented with brewer's yeast. Compared with commercial brewer's yeast, wild yeast fermentation produces more flavor substances, such as esters and alcohols, during the fermentation process. The types and characteristics of wild yeast in different regions are different, so they can better reflect the local terroir conditions. In addition, wild yeast is a naturally occurring microorganism that is not artificially cultivated or added, and is considered more natural and healthier. However, due to the complexity of the natural living environment of wild yeast, the diversity of its own biological characteristics, and the specific requirements for its functions during fermentation applications, screening biases are easily caused during the screening process; wild strains with special flavor potential are low in the sample, and the target strain may not be screened out; or the characteristics of the strain are changed during the enrichment process, resulting in the screened strain being inconsistent with the original state.
