Effect of power ultrasound treatment on free and glycosidically-bound volatile compounds and the sensorial profile of red wines

AIM Aiming to explore the possibility of shortening red winemaking maceration times (1,2), this study presents the effect of the application of high-power ultrasounds to crushed grapes, at winery-scale, on the content of varietal volatile compounds (free and glycosidically-bound) in musts and on the overall aroma of wines.

The effect of organic, biodynamic and conventional production processes on the intrinsic and perceived quality of a typical wine
