Yeast Assimilable Nitrogen (YAN) Optimization for Fermentation of Cold Climate Cultivars New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, Geneva, NY Anna Katharine Mansfield Department of Food Science, Cornell University Background and Rationale: In addition to sugars, adequate yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) concentration is required for successful alcoholic fermentation of grape musts While a concentration of 150 mg/L N is generally considered the minimum required for yeast to complete alcoholic conversion, recommendations for ‘optimal’ YAN levels vary widely and are under scientific dispute As evidence grows that excessive YAN concentrations (>400 mg/L N) may reduce expression of key volatile compounds, fine-tuning YAN concentrations by cultivar to optimize varietal expression and typicity is becoming an important consideration in quality wine production A recent survey of hybrid wine grapes suggested that YAN concentrations vary by cultivar, region, and vintage, just as it does in V vinifera cultivars (Stewart, 2013) Further, the types and concentrations of primary amino acids was found to be much more variable in hybrids than in V vinifera, where arginine dominates This work will further elucidate the chemical and sensory impacts of YAN concentration on fermentations of key cold-hardy winegrape cultivars Treatments: YAN concentrations were measured at crush (reds) or press (whites), and one lot of must left at base YAN levels as a control fermentation An additional one or two lots, depending on fruit volume, were adjusted upward in increments of 50mg/L YAN per lot (Table 1) In some cases, cultivar series were adjusted to higher YAN levels to allow comparison with the same cultivar grown in other regions (eg, UVM Marquette.)
