"The far-reaching consequences of climate change inevitably include the
production of foods and beverages, including wine.
In New Zealand, winemaking is an important business, with exports worth more
than NZ$2 billion per year.
Earlier studies have already suggested that grapevine characteristics such as
flowering and grape sugar ripeness may be linked to climatic changes. But so
far, the microbes that ferment grapes have received little attention.
Our new research explores how yeasts, bacteria and fungi may be affected by
changes in temperature and rainfall."
