Monoterpenes: Vineyard Management in Developing Wine Aroma

摘要

WINE AROMA CONTAINS A WIDE ARRAY OF CHEMICAL COMPONENTS that give a distinctive bouquet. Volatile compounds in wine that comprise aroma range from the pleasant esters, and terpenes to lactones, pyrazines, shikimic acid derivatives and a host of somewhat repulsive aromas such as ethyl acetate, trichloroanisole (cork taint), hydrogen sulfide, brettanomyces and the methoxypyrazines of "lady bug taint."
