What is Wine Yeast?
The role of yeast in winemaking is the most important element that distinguishes wine from fruit juice. In the absence of oxygen,
yeast converts the sugars of the fruit into alcohol and carbon dioxide through the process of fermentation.

Which yeast is best for wine?
The most common yeast associated with winemaking is Saccharomyces cerevisiae which has been favored due to its predictable and vigorous fermentation capabilities,
tolerance of relatively high levels of alcohol and sulfur dioxide as well as its ability to thrive in normal wine pH between 2.8 and 4.

How long does it take to make wine with yeast?
The first, and most important, step is the fermentation process, which happens when the yeast eats sugar, either in the fermentables or that you’ve added, and converts it into alcohol.
Fermentation takes roughly two to three weeks to complete fully, but the initial ferment will finish within seven to ten days.
Can wine be made without yeast?
Now, you can sometimes make wine without adding any yeast. Eventually the native yeast in the air will do the conversion for you,
and some winemakers produce wines this way, calling it a “native” or “wild” or “natural” fermentation.
