Creator:: Sereni, Anthony
Abstract:: Mouthfeel is one of the most important quality parameters of Chardonnay wines. Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is an important process in wine production, and influential to wine mouthfeel, with the reduction in acidity being particularly important for cool climate wines that generally have higher acidity such as Chardonnay. MLF is typically...

Creator:: O'Neil, Allison L.
Abstract:: Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is important in the production of wines as it reduces acidity through the conversion of malic acid to lactic acid. However, successful MLF can be difficult to achieve due to yeast antagonism of the bacterium responsible for the secondary fermentation, Oenococcus oeni. In particular, yeast produced sulfur...

Creator:: Kraft, Daniel N.
Abstract:: One of the most common problems in wine production is the formation of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and other volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which can mask positive aromas at low concentrations and result in unpleasant aromas such as rotten egg, cabbage, garlic, and rubber at higher concentrations. Despite the large body...

Creator:: Johnson, Jared D.
Abstract:: Pre-fermentation cold soak is a winemaking technique used to alter the color, mouthfeel, and aroma of red wine. While it is still debated what impact cold soak has on these wine quality parameters, current thoughts are that resident yeast populations found in fresh grape must play a role in altering...

Abstract:: The human senses can be used as analytical tools to evaluate many different aspects of our daily lives. The use of our senses through organoleptic methods offers unique and powerful insights into the characteristics of different stimuli. Due to the unique function of the different sensory organs we use to...

Creator:: Hall, Harper L.
Abstract:: This research investigated yeast populations and diversity during pre-fermentation cold maceration and alcoholic fermentation of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Pinot noir grapes from a commercial vineyard (Dayton, OR). Fermentations were conducted at the Oregon State University research winery in 100 L tanks while grapes from the same vineyard lot were...

Creator:: Lauderdale, Adam D.
Abstract:: Wine is particularly vulnerable to infection by Brettanomyces bruxellensis during or shortly after malolactic fermentation (MLF). While different methods and techniques enable winemakers to prevent wine spoilage due to this organism, no single intervention is universally sufficient. Moreover application of sulfur dioxide, the most commonly used of these methods, is...

Creator:: Ruppel, Meghan L.
Abstract:: Nitrogen is a crucial nutrient required by yeast to successfully complete alcoholic fermentation. In particular, the concentration of yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) influences fermentation kinetics and the production of a range of volatile aroma compounds, both desirable and undesirable. YAN is naturally present in the grape, but producers can boost...
