In this study, six fermentation trials were carried out: co-inoculation and sequential inoculation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Starmerella bacillaris in the presence and absence of oak chips. Moreover, Starm. bacillaris strain was attached to the oak chips and co-inoculated or sequentially inoculated with S. cerevisiae . Wines fermented with Starm. bacillaris adhered to oak chips showed a higher concentration of glycerol (more than 6 g/L) than the others (about 5 g/L). These wines also showed a higher content of polyphenols (more than 300 g/L) than the others (about 200 g/L). The addition of oak chips induced an increase of yellow color (b* value of about 3). Oak-treated wines were characterized by a higher concentration of higher alcohols, esters and terpenes. Aldehydes, phenols and lactones were detected only in these wines, independently from the inoculation strategy. Significant differences ( p < 0.05) were also observed in the sensory profiles. The fruity, toasty, astringency, and vanilla sensations were perceived as more intense in wines treated with oak chips. The white flower descriptor showed a higher score in wines fermented without chips. Oak surface-adhered Starm. bacillaris cells could be a good strategy to improve the volatile and sensory profile of Trebbiano d'Abruzzo wines.
