Investigation of smoke-taint precursor modification by glycosidase activity in diverse wine yeast and bacterial strains [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
The increasing prevalence of wildfires presents a growing risk to wine production through the development of smoke-taint, a sensory defect in wine caused by volatile phenols absorbed by grapevines during smoke exposure. In grapes and wine, these volatile
