Contributions of <i>Hanseniaspora</i> species to Pinot Noir microbial terroir in Oregon's Willamette Valley wine region.

ABSTRACT: The apiculate yeast genus Hanseniaspora has appeared frequently in enological research for more than 100 years, mostly focused upon the species H. uvarum due to its notable capacity to cause spoilage. Recently, there has been increased research into the potential benefits of other Hanseniaspora species, such as H. vineae, in producing more complex wines. Furthermore, large-scale DNA sequencing-based (metabarcoding) vineyard ecology studies have suggested that Hanseniaspora species may not be evenly distributed. To address potential differences across geographical areas in Oregon, we sampled extensively from 12 vineyards within the Willamette Valley American Viticultural Area (AVA), across 2 sub-AVAs (Eola-Amity Hills and Yamhill-Carlton).
