Research area

The group activity is framed within the following research lines:

Optimization of the aromatic, polyphenolic and tasting wine quality based on agronomic and biotechnological factors.

Analysis of chemical and technological alternatives to the sulphite employment in oenology.

Study of the microbiota from natural oenological environments (vineyard and winery) and selection of interesting microorganism

Evaluation of the agronomic and oenological potential of different white grape varieties

Study of the wine ageing in wood barrels and evaluation of alternative techniques
