Yeasts population associated with grapes from Northwest Argentina, a region with a significant vine-growing increase over the past years, was evaluated. Ten species of non-Saccharomyces yeasts were identified from four grape varieties (Malbec, Merlot, Syrah and Torrontes) being Hanseniaspora uvarum the dominant species. Typing of isolates revealed genetic variability within Hanseniaspora genus and also high variability was observed according to their oenological characteristics. Based on the oenological properties, the most adequate strains as starter cultures were H. uvarum HuT7, HuMe15, HuS16, H. vineae HvT-mc1 and Metschnikowia pulcherrima MpT2/MpT3. These selected yeasts exhibited moderate resistance to SO₂, reduced values of volatile acidity, null or low production of H₂S, high levels of enzymes related to aroma and did not produce killer toxins. Further studies using mixed cultures of these non-Saccharomyces strains and S. cerevisiae are needed to validate the contribution of selected indigenous yeasts on wine organoleptic characteristics.
