(Charlotteobserver) - Yeasts are integral to winemaking. Without them, there would be no alcohol in wine.
When talking about wine, though, it's all about the grapes. The critical role of yeast is often overlooked. In my last column, I mentioned the role yeast plays in the alcohol content of finished wine.
I spent the best part of last week talking with winemaking readers, lovers of good grapes all, who aren't just interested in yeast, but fascinated by the choices that face a winemaker. The right combination of grapes and yeast is not only important for the finished wine, but absolutely essential in making a finished wine that people want to drink.
