Research aimed at improving the biotechnology of red table wines production, taking into account the characteristics of raw materials, used yeast races, region of origin, climate and fermentation conditions, is relevant. The object of research was wines from Cabernet-Sauvignon grapes of the 2019 harvest, grown on chestnut, calcareous soils of medium loamy texture of the terroir of the Mugarty village near the Mugartychay river (Kamyshchay river basin) in the Derbent region of the Daghestan Republic, and obtained at OJSC "Derbent Sparkling Wine Factory". The strains S. cerevisiae Y-4270 and S. cerevisiae D-19 were used for fermentation. The qualitative and quantitative composition of volatile substances in the wines under study was determined by gas-liquid chromatography. It is shown that "Kara-Koisu" wine obtained using the Y-4270 strain, was more aromatic due to the greater accumulation of esters and acetate. The content of ethyl acetate (by 2.4 times), ethyl lactate (on 9.9 %), and ethyl laurate, which give roundness to fruit or floral aromas, is on 29.7 % higher in the test sample (with the exception of ethyl capronate). Aliphatic alcohols formed an important basis for the aroma of wine, the total amount of which was 433.84 mg / dm3 , which is on 39.7 % higher than that in the control. Isoamyl (62.3 %), isobutyl (42.5 %), 1-propanol (31.2%), methanol (32.5 %) prevailed in the tested wines. The aromatic alcohols are twice as high in phenylethanol, which adds floral nuances to the wine. New data indicated the role of the biochemically active S. cerevisiae strain VKPM Y-4270 in the creation of dry red wines.
