Wine and spirits services
The world wine industry is very innovative, and we can provide help at all stages, from the grape to the consumer, with advice on different fermentation techniques, different yeast strains, ageing, and wood treatment, as well as final treatments prior to bottling, filtration package closure, storage in cellar, transport and storage at point of sale.
All of these impact on the flavour and quality of the wine, and we can profile your products by using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and other techniques. We frequently help our clients in the wine industry to identify why a problem has arisen, such as a taint, a flavour or aroma defect, a sediment or haze, or simply capping of aroma or flavour.
