Uptake and Glycosylation of Smoke-Derived Volatile Phenols by Cabernet Sauvignon Grapes and Their Subsequent Fate during Winemaking [PDF]
Wine made from grapes exposed to bushfire smoke can exhibit unpleasant smoky, ashy characters, which have been attributed to the presence of smoke-derived volatile phenols, in free or glycosylated forms.

Grape smoke exposure risk assessment: Wine matrix impact on smoke marker compound smoke expression [PDF]
During wildfires large amounts of volatile phenols (VP’s) are released into the air from wood burning. These compounds absorb through the berry skin, where they are quickly glycosylated.

Screening Potential Coating Materials to Reduce the Absorption of Volatile Phenols into Grapes During Simulated Wildfire Conditions [PDF]
Wildfires release volatile phenolic compounds (VPs) that can be absorbed by grapevines, potentially resulting in “smoke taint” in wines. This has emerged as a prominent issue for the global wine industry due to negative impact on wine quality and ...

Discrimination of Smoke-Exposed Pinot Noir Wines by Volatile Phenols and Volatile Phenol-Glycosides [PDF]
This study investigated the correlation between five primary volatile phenols (VPs) and their glycosides in smoke-exposed and non-smoke-exposed Pinot noir wines to assess and identify potential markers for smoke taint.

Masking strategies to avoid the boar taint in meat products [PDF]
Surgery to castrate male pigs can be substituted by the manufacture of "entire males". However, the meat of whole male animals may have an unpleasant sexual odor, i.e. - boar taint.

Assessment of Volatile Aromatic Compounds in Smoke Tainted Cabernet Sauvignon Wines Using a Low-Cost E-Nose and Machine Learning Modelling [PDF]
Wine aroma is an important quality trait in wine, influenced by its volatile compounds. Many factors can affect the composition and levels (concentration) of volatile aromatic compounds, including the water status of grapevines, canopy management, and ...

Transcriptome analysis reveals activation of detoxification and defense mechanisms in smoke-exposed Merlot grape (Vitis vinifera) berries [PDF]
A significant consequence of climate change is the rising incidence of wildfires. When wildfires occur close to wine grape (Vitis vinifera) production areas, smoke-derived volatile phenolic compounds can be taken up by the grape berries, negatively ...

Evaluating the Potential for Different Fabrics to Protect Grapes from Contamination by Smoke [PDF]
Vineyard smoke exposure can lead to the accumulation of free and glycosylated volatile phenols (VPs) in grapes, negatively affecting wine quality. Activated carbon fibre (ACF) cloth has proven effective in mitigating smoke contamination of grapes, but ...
