Wine champagnizing, a process involving the use of champagne yeasts immobilized by inclusion into cryogels of polyvinyl alcohol, has been studied. Treatment of yeast cells with the autoregulatory factor d1 was proposed as a means of preventing the cell escape from the carrier matrix. Such a treatment inhibited growth and proliferation processes in yeasts cells, without affecting the activity of fermentation; the resulting champagne had the same organoleptic and chemical characteristics as its counterparts obtained using traditional techniques.
