Complexity of wine composition has always challenged chemists and, as a result, there have
been many meetings to discuss the chemistry and the related flavors.
This book focuses on:
- the grape derived and varietal flavors of wines
- the contribution of
polyohenols to the
bitter taste and astringent mouthfeel of wine
- the
characterization of aromas related to wine maturation
- aging in oak cooperage
- the cork
stopper
- the role of component interactions on flavor volatility and perception
- and more!
