OXYLESS : Estimating the oxidability of wines quickly with analytical methods and voltammetry

Fabio Signorini, the consultant of the Cantina Sociale dei Colli Fiorentini (head of the Oxyless project) briefly explained the objectives of the project and Marco Puleo, the winery’s oenologist, gave us more details on the production of the trial wines.

Francesca Borghini and Stefano Ferrari from the analytical service company ISVEA presented the results obtained in the evaluation of the oxidability of wines – red, sparkling white or rosé from Sangiovese grapes – in relation to different viticultural and oenological practices applied.

Piergiorgio Comuzzo, from the University of Udine, gave us insights on voltammetric analysis, its oenological potential and possible applications found within the Oxyless project. T
