Lactobacillus

Welcome to our website on wine bacteria! The focus of this website is to get you started on the right foot into the vast microbiol world of wine bacteria! The site is mainly focused on two bacteria, Oenococcus Oeni and Lactobacillus. Oenococcus is positive to the wine while Lactobacillus can negatively affect the wine. This should give you a look at both sides of the bacteria required in wine. We hope you learn about the many interesting facts of these bacteria and feel free to leave any comments on the message board. Thank you for checking out our site!
