Summary

Fourteen cultures of yeast were isolated from dry white wines which contained a cloud and/or sediment. These organisms were identified asS. chevalieri Guilliermond (2 cultures),S. carlsbergensis var.monacensis (Hansen) Dekker (1),S. oviformis Osterwalder (6),S. cerevisiae (2),Pichia alcoholophila Klöcker (2), andCandida rugosa (Anderson) Diddens and Lodder (1).
