N 12:11 | Maturation diffhist +2,834 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Maturation''' in wine refers to the period following fermentation during which the wine develops its structure, stability, and sensory profile prior to bottling. It is distinct from ageing, which generally describes the evolution of wine in bottle. Maturation may occur in a variety of vessels, from oak barrels to inert materials such as stainless steel, each contributing differently to the wine’s character.<ref>Ribéreau-Gayon, Dubourdieu, Do...") |
N 10:56 | Wine tasting diffhist +3,554 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Wine tasting''' refers to the sensory evaluation of wine, encompassing its visual, olfactory, and gustatory properties. The practice has developed into both a cultural tradition and a professional discipline, central to the understanding and communication of wine quality.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015, ISBN 978-0198705383.</ref> == Historical background == The systematic assessment of wine has roots in ant...") |
N 10:27 | Flavour diffhist +3,119 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Flavour''' in the context of wine refers to the combined sensory impression created by taste and aroma during consumption. It encompasses both the primary components perceived on the palate and the volatile compounds detected retronasally, making it a central concept in wine tasting.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015, ISBN 978-0198705383.</ref> == Background == Flavour is distinct from taste and ar...") |

N 15:35 | Notes diffhist +3,247 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Notes''' in wine refer to the descriptive terms used to characterise the aromas, flavours, and sometimes the textural sensations perceived during wine tasting. They are a central tool in the evaluation of wine, forming part of both professional assessments and informal descriptions. The term may apply to individual sensory impressions such as “citrus” or “vanilla”, or to structured tasting notes that compile these descriptors into...") |

N 15:33 | Oenology diffhist +3,601 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Oenology''' (/iːˈnɒlədʒi/), from the Greek ''oinos'' (wine) and ''-logia'' (study), is the scientific discipline concerned with wine and winemaking. It encompasses the study of grape chemistry, fermentation, maturation, and sensory evaluation, providing the technical foundation for modern wine production.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015, ISBN 978-0198705383.</ref> == Background == The formal study of oenology d...") |

14:46 (cur | prev) +3,665 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Ageing''' in wine refers to the process by which a wine evolves over time, whether in barrel, bottle, or other vessels. Unlike simple storage, ageing is a controlled transformation that can enhance complexity, soften textures, and develop aromas, though not all wines are designed to benefit from prolonged ageing.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015, ISBN 978-0198705383.</ref> == Historical context == The...") |
N 13:28 | Yeast diffhist +3,285 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Yeast''' (/jiːst/) are unicellular fungi of great importance in winemaking, responsible for the alcoholic fermentation that transforms grape must into wine. The term derives from Old English ''gist'' and Proto-Germanic roots meaning "foam" or "boil", reflecting the frothing effect of fermentation. The most significant species in oenology is ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'', though other genera also contribute to fermentation under certain conditions.<...") |
N 11:29 | Appellation diffhist +8,707 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Appellation''' (/ˌæpəˈleɪʃən/; from the French *appellation*, meaning "naming" or "designation") is a term in viticulture and wine law that denotes a legally defined and protected geographical indication used to identify where the grapes for a wine were grown. The system establishes boundaries and regulations that connect a wine’s identity to its place of origin, governing permitted grape varieties, vineyard practices, and winemaking methods.<ref>...") |
