VASCM: Today, 3pm: The Chemistry of Smoke Taint: Repeat Zoominar with Phil Crews, Professor of Chemistry, UCSC

[Mary Lindsay]

*Phil Crews is repeating his presentation (Live!) on The Chemistry of 
Smoke Taint for those who missed it last time. And for those who 
participated in December, this is so information-intensive that you 
might want to watch it again. Phil has updated and tweaked the 
presentation so there will be new information. /Note: Unfortunately, 
there is not a recording of the December presentation. We hope to make a 
recording of this presentation available, but due to complications there 
is no guarantee. So, be sure to watch it Live! today if you are 
interested in this topic./

*The Chemistry of Smoke Taint*
*- with Phil Crews, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Chemistry UCSC, 
and winemaker and proprietor, Pelican Ranch Winery
*

*Date:  Today, Thursday, Jan. 7
*
*3:00-5:00pm*
*Location: Zoom *(see log-in details below)



Winemakers have many questions about the impact of smoke on this vintage 
and what to expect with the resulting wine. Phil Crews, PhD, is 
Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at UCSC, teaches courses on the 
chemistry of winemaking, and will share his expertise on this topic with 
a presentation on the Chemistry of Smoke Taint for winemakers. This will 
include an overview of the volatile phenols and address:

- how smoke interacts with fermentation

- what might be expected during and post fermentation, as the wine 
progresses and ages.

- what do the lab results really mean (how do you decipher the results, 
are all the volatile phenols equally important)?

- what actions can be taken at this point in time, if any, to mitigate 
possible smoke taint?

Bring your questions!
