Research Interests
My research interests primarily concern the chemistry of grapes and wine, in particular the chemical and sensory analysis of volatile and non-volatile components of organoleptic significance and the influence of environmental conditions, viticultural management practices and winemaking techniques on their biochemical formation and degradation. Current wine-related research includes: (i) Oak derived flavour in wine and spirits; (ii) Viticultural management of 'green characters' in grapes and wine; (iii) Smoke taint in grapes and wine and (iv) Objective measures of sparkling wine style and quality. I am also involved in food science research on almonds, kangaroo apples and oysters, as well as a learning and teaching project. -
