Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) as a Tool for Investigating Self-Organized Ascending Bubble-Driven Flow Patterns in Champagne Glasses by Fabien Beaumont, Gérard Liger-Belair, Guillaume Polidori

“…Secondly, a three-dimensional (3D) model was developed by using the conventional volume-of-fluid (VOF) multiphase method to resolve the interface between the mixture’s phases (wine–air). In complete accordance with several experimental observations conducted through laser tomography and PIV techniques, CFD revealed a very complex flow composed of surface eddies interacting with a toroidal flow that develops around the ascending bubble column.…”

Does consumer preference exceed initially indicated wishes? The case of dessert topping by Katarina BOROVŠAK, Xavier GELLYNCK, Sara De PELSMAEKER, Aleš KUHAR

“…This paper shows the importance of consumer studies including consumer sensory tests for product prototype optimization on the case of an innovative sweet topping made from well-known Slovenian wine Teran. Empirical study was made combining two stages, first the exploratory qualitative research with focus groups and questionnaire and second a test for new food prototype with consumer sensory techniques. …”

Berenike's natural riches: rocks and minerals in the archaeological record by Iwona Zych

“…One of the objectives of this approach is to work toward a network visualization of the resources (and other commodities, which include spices/condiments, incense/frankincense, minerals and metals, gold included, precious and semiprecious stones, cameo blanks, ivory, cowry shells, turtle shell, raw glass, as well as botanics/foodstuffs and exotic and domestic animals, not to mention human slaves; also the less obvious resources attested indirectly in the archaeological record like water, wine and olive oil). The results can then be compared in the future to the existing network visualization of the list of goods extracted from the Periplus Maris Erythraei, a 1st-century-AD sailing and trading guide.…”

The Relationship between Dietary Flavonols Intake and Metabolic Syndrome in Polish Adults by Joanna Popiolek-Kalisz

“…The patients with MetS consumed significantly less quercetin (<i>p</i> = 0.01), kaempferol (<i>p</i> = 0.04), isorhamnetin (<i>p</i> < 0.001), total flavonols (<i>p</i> = 0.01), tomatoes (<i>p =</i> 0.001) and wine (<i>p</i> = 0.01) daily. Further analysis revealed a moderate inverse correlation between quercetin (<i>p</i> = 0.001), kaempferol (<i>p</i> = 0.01), isorhamnetin (<i>p</i> < 0.001), total flavonols (<i>p</i> = 0.001) and tomato consumption (<i>p</i> = 0.004) and MetS stage. …”

Grapevine bacterial communities display compartment-specific dynamics over space and time within the Central Valley of California by Joel F. Swift, Zoë Migicovsky, Grace E. Trello, Allison J. Miller

“…These site-specific influences along with microbial differences across sites compose ‘terroir’, the environmental influence on wine produced in a given region. Commercial grapevines are typically composed of a genetically distinct root (rootstock) grafted to a shoot system (scion) which adds an additional layer of complexity via genome-to-genome interactions. …”

Effect of Agronomic Techniques on Aroma Composition of White Grapevines: A Review by Eleonora Cataldo, Linda Salvi, Francesca Paoli, Maddalena Fucile, Giovan Battista Mattii

“…Grape quality is a complex concept that mainly refers to berry chemical composition, including secondary metabolites such as aroma compounds that in white berries play a key role in the identity of the wine. Terpenes, thiols, C13-norisoprenoids, methoxypyrazines, and nonterpenic alcohols are the most important aroma compounds in white grapes and several of them can be found as free volatiles or bound as glycoconjugate molecules. …”
