Are there any wordsmiths out there able to assist in the pronunciation of Brettanomyces?
Assuming no silent letters I am taking a guess at brett-anom-i-seez, although I could be way off the mark!!

Wayno would know more than me, but yep, that's how I pronounce it.

Just call it Bret. Anybody into wine will understand what you are talking about.

Hmmm, that sounds a bit rude. Depending on which way you read it!
