The comparison was made both in a model medium and in must under the normal winemaking conditions in four Bordeaux wineries. The quantification of the volatile thiols released into the model medium and the wines showed statistically significant differences among the various yeast strains regarding the formation of 4-mercapto-4-methylpentan-2-one and 4-mercapto-4-methylpentan-2-ol.Acknowledgment: This study received the financial support of Comit{\'e} Interprofessionnel des Vins de Bordeaux, Conseil R{\'e}gional d{\textquoteright}Aquitaine, and SARCO (Bordeaux, France).}, issn = {0002-9254}, URL = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/52/2/136}, eprint = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/52/2/136.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Enology and Viticulture} }
