Explanation:

Absence of Oxygen – Air must be excluded from the vessel in which fermentation is being carried out. Air contains a large proportion of bacteria called Acetobacter. Acetobacter bacteria use atmospheric oxygen from air to oxidise ethanol in the wine, producing a weak solution of ethanoic acid (vinegar).
