 Vintner's Corner   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Most grape aroma/flavor compounds are present in the grape either as free volatiles, which may contribute directly to odor, or as non-volatile bound sugar conjugates (Fig.1).
Glycosidically bound grape conjugates include a wide range of compounds which represent, in part, the potential aroma/flavor of a grape variety.
Another possible approach to manipulating grape aroma/flavor is to increase the quantity of glycosides, thus increasing the pool of potential aroma/flavor compounds.
