Default natural yeast killing

I have been going high alcohol with lalvin 1118, and storing in 2L coke
bottles. So they won't realy hurt anyone if they blew up for some
reason/more resiliant, visibly bloating... but I was wondering racking,
waiting, and also posibly lowering temperature I think may kill off the
yeast.

I put the containers in a really cold fridge, and I think it will make
the majority of yeast go dormant, and possibly become more vulernable
from the alchol at cold temperatures not able to perform its internal
processes. Then racking it and waiting...

so does cold temperatures high alcohol possibly assist for the
non-chemical destruction of yeast??
