CSU Wine Faults 1 of 3
“IT HAD BETTER NOT BE MY FAULT” AN ANALYSIS OF WINE GONE BAD CSU Assoc. Prof. of Enology Stephen Menke WINE QUALITY, GREATNESS, AND FAULTS Not all of us agree on the definitions of wine quality, as it can either be a personal statement, or it can be the common agreement of a larger group. We tend to be generous in accepting personal ideas of wine quality, but compromises are necessary to reach a group definition of wine quality. Groups find it easier to agree upon the most extreme characteristics (or outliers, for the statisticians) of a wine. These are either characteristics that we all find to be exceptionally good, or we all find to be exceptionally bad. This is the underlying psychology and politics of the terms “great wine” and “faulty wine”. It is socially easier to agree on faults. So what are the wine faults that we all (or almost all) agree upon? COMMON WINE FAULTS Most caused by microorganisms or grape composition Color flaws High pH, improper fruit maturity/grape extraction Oxidation & aging Clarity flaws Crystal salts (tartrates, etc.) Re-fermentation and microbial hazes Colloidal hazes and sediments Protein/phenolic or glucoside/phenolic or other vs. tartrates Temperature, fining, and aging are clarification tools Sensory (aroma and flavor) faults Winemaking origin Microbiological origin WINE SENSORY FAULTS Excess SO2 Volatile acidity (Acetobacter, yeast, other microbes) Ethyl acetate and acetic acid Oxidation (Excess O2 or microbiological origin) Acetaldehyde, other aldehydes and pyrazines Reduced sulfur

Jean-Roch Mouret 1, Evelyne Aguera 2, Marc Perez 1, Vincent Farines 1 and Jean-Marie Sablayrolles 1,* 1 SPO, INRAE, Institute Agro, University of Montpellier, 34000 Montpellier, France; [email protected] (J.-R.M.); [email protected] (M.P.); [email protected] (V.F.) 2 Pech Rouge, INRAE, 11430 Gruissan, France; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +33-4-9961-2500 Abstract: Wine fermentation is a specific and complex research subject and its control is essential to ensure full process completion while improving wine quality. It displays several specificities, in particular, (i) musts with a very high sugar content, low pH, and some limiting nutrients, as well as a great variability in must composition according to the year, grape variety, and so on; (ii) atypical fermentation conditions with non-isothermal temperature profiles, a quasi-anaerobiosis and legal constraints with a limited and predefined list of authorized operations. New challenges have emerged, related to the increasing diversity of commercially available yeast strains; the fluctuating composition of musts, particularly owing to climate change; and sustainability, which has become a key issue. This paper synthesizes approaches implemented to address all these issues. It details the example of our laboratory that, for many years, has been developing an integrated approach to study yeast diversity, understand their metabolism, and develop new fermentation control strategies. This approach requires the development of specific fermentation devices to study yeast metabolism in a controlled environment that mimics practical conditions and to develop original fermentation Citation: Mouret, J.-R.; Aguera, E.; control strategies.

245 Technical Review April 2020
Technical notes How good is the grape and wine community at identifying wine taints and faults? Introduction Winemakers strive to make the best possible wines from the fruit they have available. However, there is always a risk that something will go wrong in the vineyard or in the winemaking process, leading to negative attributes that can dominate wine aroma or flavour. Common examples include ‘smoky’ characters from bushfires, ‘Band-Aid’ or ‘barnyard’ characters from Brettanomyces spoilage and ‘reductive’ characters that can develop during bottle ageing. Different people can perceive wine taints and faults in different ways, and each person has their own aroma detection thresholds for different taint or fault compounds. In some cases, the person assessing the wine may suffer from a specific anosmia, which is the lack of ability to detect an odour. Data collected through the AWRI’s Advanced Wine Assessment Course (AWAC) from 2006-11 indicates that compounds such as 2,6-dichlorophenol (‘plastic’, ‘antiseptic’), indole (‘mothball’) and 2-acetyltetrahydropyridine (‘mousy’, ‘malty biscuit’) are completely undetectable to a significant proportion of assessors (20%, 7% and 25% respectively). While winemakers may be highly sensitive to many off-flavours, due to genetic variability it is likely that even a highly experienced winemaker will be blind to or lack sensitivity to some specific fault or taint compound(s). The ability to correctly identify a taint or fault in a wine depends on a number of factors, including wine style, age, variety and the presence of contributing or confounding aroma compounds. It is essential that people who are called upon to assess the quality of wine are able to accurately recognise the common wine faults and taints that occur in wines.
