Carmen Gonzalez: ´ Writing – review & editing, Supervision, Conceptualization.Ozonated water (4 ppm) has been used to sanitize red grapes (cv Tempranillo, Vitis vinifera L.) after destemming and to facilitate the implantation of the non- Saccharomyces yeast Lachancea thermotolerans in the absence of sulphites. The implantation of L. thermotolerans in ozone fermentations was more successful with a higher acidification (+13% of lactic acid) and a lower variability among replicates (n = 3). Ozone fermentations kept the same amount of anthocyanins (p < 0.05) measured by HPLC-DAD and lower values of acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate analyzed by GC-FID. The concentration of higher alcohols, esters and carbonyl compounds was similar in ozone fermentations and controls (p < 0.05). Ozonated water is a powerful tool to control microorganisms facilitating fermentations with non- Saccharomyces sensitive to sulfites like Lachancea thermotolerans and the wine making with low levels of SO2 . The better implantation produces more reproducible fermentations in terms of volatile compounds and metabolitesengjournal article2212-4306https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fbio.2024.105700restricted access624.13663.2OzoneOzonated wáterNon-SaccharomycesLachancea thermotoleransWinePHAcidificationSulphitesAgricultura2511.08 Mecánica de Suelos (Agricultura)
