It is a defining component of wine, influencing its stability, style, and sensory properties.<ref>Jackson, ''Wine Science: Principles and Applications'', 5th ed., Academic Press, 2020, ISBN 978-0128161180.</ref> == Background == The word derives from the Arabic ''al-kuḥl'', later adopte...") | ||||

It is closely related to Mouthfeel, but the term is often used to describe the structural and tactile qualities that influence how a wine is experienced on the palate.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015, ISBN 978-0198705383.</ref> == Background == Texture arises from the interaction of multiple wine co...") | |||
| N 11:44 | Aroma diffhist +3,779 Winosaur talk contribs (Created page with "'''Aroma''' refers to the olfactory characteristics of wine, encompassing the volatile compounds perceived through the nose and retronasal pathways. In oenology, the term is often distinguished from flavour, as aroma relates specifically to smell, while flavour integrates both smell and taste. The word derives from the Greek ''arōma'', meaning spice or fragrance, and it has long been recognised as central to sensory appreciation of wine.<ref>Peynaud, ''The T...") | ||||
| 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...") | ||||

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...") | ||||

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...") | |||
