WHAT IS HYBRIDISATION?

Yeast can procreate in two ways: sexually and

asexually. Under winemaking conditions yeast will

always procreate asexually due to the Crabtree

effect. In nature however, under conditions of

nutrient starvation, yeasts can procreate sexually

as to ensure the survival of the species by promoting

genetic diversity. Hybridisation is an essential part

of this sexual reproduction cycle. Sexual reproduction

can be induced in a laboratory and new yeast hybrids

from different parental strains can be obtained, as

is often the case in nature. This process is completely

non-GMO. The Anchor hybrids all exhibit the strong

fermentation capabilities of the ‘bayanus’ parents

as well as the very good aromatic traits of the

‘cerevisiae’ parents. They can be applied for cold

fermentation, the production of very aromatic wines

and the fermentation of high sugar musts -

winemaking conditions usually associated with New

World winemaking, hence the positioning of the

Anchor brand: The world’s leading New World wine

yeast brand.

Anchor Wine Yeast is the world’s leading New World wine yeast brand. The entire Anchorrange of wine yeasts have been specifically selected for, and is targeted at New Worldwinemaking styles and conditions associated with this modern technological way of makingwine. New world white wines are characterized by their very upfront fresh- and fruitiness,the result of the use of aromatic yeasts at cold fermentation temperatures. New World redwines are characterized by their fruit complexity and often elevated alcohols – the result oflonger hang time on the vines. Both cold ferm entation and the fermentation of high sugarmusts present certain winemaking challenges. The Anchor range of wine yeasts meets thesechallenges whilst at the same time ensuring wine aroma optimisation. The reason for its successlies within a technique called yeast hybridization. Anchor Yeast was the first company to commer-cialise a hybrid wine yeast in 1991 – It is VIN 13 and it was developed by the Department ofMicrobiology, Stellenbosch University. The overwhelming success of this strain experienced to thisday paved the way for five more intraspecies hybrids (hybrids between Saccharomyces cerevisiaeand S. cerevisiae (bayanus). Four of these hybrids (NT 202, NT 50, NT 116 and NT 112) were createdby the ARC-Infruitec-Nietvoorbij and one, VIN 2000, by the Institute for Wine Biotechnology. The unique-ness of these strains lies within the specific combination of traits in one wine yeast, i.e. very aromatic,cold tolerant and very high alcohol tolerant. This range of yeasts also contains some nature isolates withexceptional qualities.

NT 116's tolerance of high sugar musts and high alcohol

concentrations makes it very suitable for the production of

full-bodied red wines destined for wood maturation. NT 116

promotes blackberry and blackcurrant aromas in Shiraz and

Cabernet Sauvignon, and red berry aromas in Merlot.

NT 50 enhances red berries (strawberry, raspberry and

cherry), black berries (blackberry and blackcurrant) and

spicy aromas in red wines. It is suitable for wine with or

without wood maturation. It is most suited for vinifying

Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Pinotage.

WE 372 enhances red berry and floral aromas in red wines.

It is recommended for the vinification of most red grape

varieties; Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot,

Shiraz, Pinotage and Pinot noir. WE 372 is also recommended

for the production of semi-sweet white wines, as the

fermentation is easily slowed down by lowering the

temperature to 10˚C.

NT 202 enhances red berry and minty aromas in Cabernet

Sauvignon, red berry aromas in Merlot and blackberry,

blackcurrant, tobacco and prune aromas in Pinotage. It is

recommended for the production of red wines with or

without wood maturation.

NT 202 has a high alcohol tolerance, a good fructose utilisation

and a stimulating effect on malolactic fermentation, when

compared to other red wine strains. It is therefore especially

suitable for the vinification of high sugar musts where the

resulting high alcohols at the end of fermentation can

potentially cause sluggish or stuck alcoholic fermentations

and/or problematic MLF’s.

NT 112 is recommended for the production of red wines

with a firm tannic structure. It enhances blackberry and

blackcurrant aromas in Cabernet Sauvignon and red berry

and minty aromas in Shiraz. NT 112 can produce SO2 under

stress conditions such as nutrient (especially nitrogen)

shortage, high alcohols ≥14% and low fermentation

temperatures 20˚C. This could potentially delay malolactic

fermentation. NT 112 is therefore recommended for wines

where this trait is desired, i.e. wines destined for micro-

oxygenation.

VIN 2000 is recommended for the production of barrel

fermented Chardonnay (good fructose utilisation, tropical

and citrus aromas), Viognier (floral and citrus aromas) and

‘rich and ripe’ style Chenin blanc (fresh pineapple, paw-

paw and citrus aromas).

VIN 13 enhances volatile thiol aromas (granadilla, grapefruit,

gooseberry and guava) and produces esters (tropical fruit

salad, floral). It is recommended for vinifying Chardonnay,

Chenin blanc, Semillon, Viognier and all Muscat grape

varieties. VIN 13 is also ideal for the production of aromatic

rosé’s from all red grape varieties.

N 96 is a neutral wine yeast, which allows varietal character

to dominate wine aroma. It is also well suited for the

production of sparkling wines.

VIN 13

VIN 7 releases granadilla, grapefruit, gooseberry and guava

aromas and flavours from their non-aromatic precursors in

the must. It is therefore especially recommended for

vinification of the following grape varieties: Sauvignon blanc,

‘fresh and fruity’ Chenin blanc and Colombard.

WE 14 is very suitable for the production of all natural sweet

wines including noble late harvest wines. It is resistant to

the toxins secreted by Botrytis cinerea and can easily start

fermentation at a high sugar concentration. It is however

unlikely to ferment high sugar musts to dryness. WE 14 is

cold sensitive and fermentation can easily be stopped by

lowering the temperature to 10˚C.

228 is for the production of rebate wine for brandy production.

Page 8: Eng Product Cat 9€¦ · The reason for its success lies within a technique called yeast hybridization. Anchor Yeast was the first company to commer-cialise a hybrid wine yeast in

must with more than one

commercial yeast strain. The AWRI

has done extensive trials during 2007

on the phenomenon of co-inoculation

and its positive impact on wine aroma.

Based on this research, ANCHOR YEAST has

developed, in collaboration with the AWRI, two

yeast blends for the production of aromatic white

wines. These blends are commercialised under the

ANCHOR ALCHEMY brand name. They consist of a

blend of wine yeasts in scientifically formulated

ratios. ANCHOR ALCHEMY I enhances mainly

aromatic esters and to a lesser extend some volatile

thiols (due to the masking effect from the esters)

and ALCHEMY II enhances mainly volatile thiol

aromas.

The blends contain both killer positive and killer

sensitive strains. Mother tanking (propagation) of

these blends will distort the ratio of the strains and

the desired effect will not be obtained. This product

must be rehydrated and directly inoculated at the

recommended dosage only. Use whole packets at a

time. Fermentations are rapid and complete and

recommended for stainless steel, temperature-

controlled tanks only. Fermentation in barrels is

not advised.

Wine aroma is one of the most important contributing

factors to wine quality and perceived value. Some

of the strongest aromatic compounds in wine are

the volatile thiols, which are released by yeast

during fermentation. These compounds are

responsible for the granadilla, box tree, guava and

grapefruit aromas in Sauvignon blanc. Researchers

at the Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI)

have shown that yeasts can convert non-aromatic

precursors in grape juice, via enzymatic activity,

to aromatic compounds in the final wine. Different

yeast strains release and convert different quantities

of aromatic compounds. These yeast metabolic

activities dramatically affect the aroma of the wine.

To maximize wine aroma, a combination of yeast

strains, some good at releasing aromatic compounds

and others good at converting them, would be

optimal.

Research at the AWRI in 2006 has demonstrated

that the simultaneous inoculation of grape must

with two or more specific commercial yeasts leads

to very different chemical and sensorial

characteristics of the wine than if two wines, made

separately with the different yeasts in the blend,

are later blended. A more complex mix of volatile

thiols, higher alcohols and esters were produced as

a result of the co-inoculation of Sauvignon blanc

Anchor Alchemy yeast blends have been developed specifically for the production

of New World style aromatic white wines. Its development is based on the ever

increasing popularity of thiol driven (New Zealand, South Africa and Chile) Sauvignon

blanc styles and ester driven un-wooded or slightly wooded styles of Chardonnay,

Viognier and Chenin blanc. These yeast blends allow maximum aroma expression

associated with these wine styles as well as complete reliability at cold fermentation

temperatures. Anchor is the first wine yeast brand in the world to commercialise yeast

blends which are based on the synergistic effect between individual yeasts in specific ratios.

Anchor Alchemy I enhances esters (fruity, floral) in white

wines. This is the result of the synergistic action of

the specific yeast strains used in the blend.

The ratio of the yeast strains in the blend has been

scientifically formulated to provide this optimum aromatic profile.

It is recommended for vinifying white grape varieties such as tank fermented Chardonnay

and ‘rich and ripe’ style Chenin blanc.

have pleasant aromatic profiles in

wines when inoculated on their own in

musts. The decision was taken to use

hybridisation to obtain hybrids between the two

species that would potentially combine the positive

traits of both species. Anchor Exotics SPH proved

the most suitable hybrid and has the following

unique characteristics:

• The world’s first S. cerevisiae / S. paradoxus

inter-species hybrid

• Partial malic acid breakdown in red wine

conditions (up to 17%)

• Enhances speed of malolactic fermentation

• Higher glycerol production in high sugar musts

• Potentially lower alcohol conversion in high sugar

musts due to higher glycerol production

WILD YEAST BENEFITS WITHOUT THE RISKS

It is well-known that spontaneous fermentations can sometimes deliver wines with great

aromatic complexity. This is due to the fact that various yeast species take part in the

fermentation, each making their unique contribution to the final wine sensory profile.

However, due to the risks involved with spontaneous fermentations, many winemakers

choose to inoculate their wines with commercial yeast starter cultures known for their

fermentation reliability, suitability for certain wine styles and repeatability of results.

These starter cultures are mostly Saccharomyces cerevisiae, commonly referred to as “the

wine yeast.”

In recent years wine yeast companies started to

investigate the commercialisation of ‘wild or feral’

yeasts in order to reproduce the effects of

spontaneous fermentations in a controlled way.

Non-Saccharomyces yeasts do however require a co-

inoculation with S. cerevisiae yeast to ensure

fermentation reliability. In a different approach the

Institute for Wine Biotechnology, Stellenbosch

University in South Africa created a hybrid wine

yeast between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and

Saccharomyces paradoxus - a wild yeast also

associated with winemaking. S. paradoxus has the

ability to partially break down malic acid (some

strains up to 38%) as well as pectinolytic activity,

two traits not normally found in S. cerevisiae yeasts.

Malic acid breakdown can assist in the biological

de-acidification of wine whilst pectinolytic activity

can assist in wine clarity and filterability.

S. paradoxus strains have also been reported to

Anchor Exotics SPH inherited the aromatic capabilities of both its parents;

thereby expanding the aromatic potential and complexity of what pure

S.cerevisiae has to offer. White wines produced by this yeast are

described as having exotic aromas and flavours. Anchor Exotics

SPH is recommended for the production of barrel fermented

Chardonnay, Chenin blanc and Viognier. It enhances guava,

granadilla, tropical fruit salad and stone fruit aromas and flavours.

It is cold sensitive and ferments at a steady rate in

barrels. Produces good mouth feel.

Apart from its enhanced aromatic potential Anchor Exotics SPH

has added advantages of enhancing malolactic fermentation

through partial malic acid breakdown (as much as 17% observed) as well as higher

glycerol production and lower alcohol conversion in high sugar must conditions.

Wines produced with this yeast are described as well-rounded, well-balanced and

full-bodied with complex aromas of plum, floral, blackcurrant and

cacao. It is recommended for the production of Shiraz, Merlot

and Pinotage.

as high sugar musts, low nutrient status and Botrytis infection. It can be used

on its own or with additional nitrogen of the winemaker's choice.

INGREDIENTS

Inactivated yeast

Di-ammonium phosphate (60%)

Thiamine

RECOMMENDED DOSAGE

30 - 50 g/hl

MODE OF ACTION

Ammonium salts, thiamine and inactivated yeasts stimulate yeast growth and metabolism.

APPLICATION

Make up as a slurry in must or water(1:5). Add to the fermentation only after the yeast exponential growth

phase (after a drop of at least 3˚B). Add the full dose at once or half the dose twice. Avoid adding after

5˚B is reached.

BENEFITS

● Inactivated yeasts are rich in vitamins such as thiamine, pantothenate and biotin, and minerals and other

trace elements required for optimum yeast performance

● Inactivated yeasts are rich in sterols and long chain fatty acids that improve alcohol tolerance of the

fermenting yeast

● Inactivated yeasts adsorb toxic medium chain fatty acids thereby protecting the fermenting yeast from

inhibition by these compounds

● Enhances the aroma and flavour profile of wines

● Increases yeast viability and the yeast population

● Increases the rate of fermentation and helps to ensure the completion of fermentation

● Reduces the formation of H2S and other sulphur off-flavours

● Reduces lagging and stuck fermentations

Do not propagate (“mother tank”) a yeast.

Base choice of yeast on fermentation performance first and then on suitability for aspecific grape variety or style of wine.

Rehydrate correctly.

The first 5°Balling of a red wine fermentation should not exceed 25°C.

The last 5°Balling of a red wine fermentation should not exceed 25°C.

The maximum temperature of a red wine ferment should never exceed 30°C.

Avoid a heat peak by not adding DAP at the start of fermentation unless the YAN isbelow 100 mg/L.

Use cold tolerant yeast strains to cold ferment (12 – 15°C).

Avoid abrupt temperature shifts of more than 5°C.

Measure the YAN of the juice – add complex yeast nutrients in stages during thefermentation.

Use lysozyme in red musts with the initial sugar exceeding 25°Balling.
