Schizosaccharomyces, the only wine yeast that reproduced by fission whereas most wine yeast reproduce by budding. [4] Zygosaccharomyces, very alcohol-tolerant and can grow in wines up to 18% v/v. Additionally this yeast can survive in extremely high sugar levels (as much as 60% w/w or 60 Brix) and is very resistant to sulfur dioxide. [4]
Bottle fermentation is a method of sparkling wine production, originating in the Champagne region where after the cuvee has gone through a primary yeast fermentation the wine is then bottled and goes through a secondary fermentation where sugar and additional yeast known as liqueur de tirage is added to the wine. This secondary fermentation is ...
White wine is made from white or black grapes (but always with white flesh; the grapes with coloured flesh are called Teinturier, meaning coloured juice). Once harvested, the grapes are pressed, and only the juice, called wort, is extracted. The wort is put into tanks for fermentation where sugar is transformed into alcohol by yeast present on ...
Orange wine (a.k.a. skin-contact white wine) is wine made with maceration in the manner of rosé or red wine production, but using white wine grape varieties instead of red. To start primary fermentation, yeast may be added to the must for red wine, or may occur naturally as ambient yeast on the grapes (or in the air).
The term honey wine is sometimes used as a synonym for mead, [9] [10] although wine is typically defined to be the product of fermented grapes or certain other fruits, [11] and some cultures have honey wines that are distinct from mead. The honey wine of Hungary, for example, is the fermentation of honey-sweetened pomace of grapes or other ...

Wine is an alcoholic drink made from fermented fruit. Yeast consumes the sugar in the fruit and converts it to ethanol and carbon dioxide, releasing heat in the process. Wine is most often made from grapes, and the term "wine" generally refers to grape wine when used without any qualification.
Ice wine production is risky because many grapes do not survive the cold temperatures—resulting in ice wines being generally expensive. [5] Orange wine – Amber wine gets its name from its deep orange color. This wine is made by leaving white wine grapes in contact with the skins, stems, and seeds during fermentation. [6]
