False colour scanning electron micrograph of wine yeast cells Saccharomyces cerevisiae (var. ellipsoideus),(tiny balls) on crystals of potassium hydrogen tartrate precipitated out from red wine & growing on the inner surface of the cork. The flavour of a wine depends on the variety of grape used,the soil,the weather etc. & the type of yeast found growing in association with the fruit. The yeast ferments the wine to a good alcohol level. In some winemaking processes the grapes are sterilized & the yeast added,but in the better quality wines the original or wild yeast (i. e. naturally occurring on the fruit) is used.
