The effect of global warming and water stress on Mediterranean vineyards has prompted the search for strategies to counteract the damage associated with sunburn of grapes and leaf dehydration of vines.
The colour stability of red wine is a desired and complex feature affected by anthocyanin structure and concentration, copigmentation phenomena, and interactions with other wine macromolecules, such as polysaccharides.
Ensuring colour stability in red wines represents a major technological and commercial challenge for the wine industry.
Orange wines, defined as white wines produced with prolonged skin maceration, have recently gained increasing attention due to their distinctive sensory profile and potential functional properties.
Calcium tartrate (CaT) instability is an increasingly relevant issue in bottled wines, mainly due to increasing calcium concentrations associated with climate change and certain winemaking practices.
Oenological closures play a crucial role in the preservation and evolution of still and sparkling wines in bottle.
The extensive utilisation of copper-based fungicides in viticulture has resulted in the progressive accumulation of copper in vineyard soils and grape, and, consequently in must, raising concerns about its impact on yeast performance, fermentation efficiency, wine quality, and consumer safety.
Wine matrix is a complex and continuously evolving medium. The impact of oxygen in wine evolution is a vital factor that critically affects key organoleptic properties such as color or astringency.
The use of waxes and resins to seal wine bottles dates back several millennia, as shown by archaeological evidence.
