Synopsis

Wine Faults: the hobgoblin in wine making—the headache in wine judging. In this unique, authoritative, and comprehensive text, John Hudelson, Organic Chemist and Quality Control expert, gives us a precise description of wine’s myriad flaws and faults, where they come from, how to avoid them, and, if it’s too late, prescribes the remedy. Wine Faults begins by covering the differences between flaws and faults, how flavors develop, and how taste and smell work in the evaluation of wine. Every microbial infection found in today’s wineries is fully described and arrayed in full color slides. The book also tackles faults arising from various wine making methods, including the increasing problems resulting from high alcohol wines; volatile acidity in high pH wines common in some warm grape-growing regions; and vegetal qualities of cool viticultural regions. Dense as the material may be, the book is written in a manner that both the layperson and the quality control professional who forgot that he ever took organic chemistry can understand.
