Wine Analysis
The Significance of Acidity in Wine Production
The acidity of grape juice and wine, measured as
titratable acidity
, impacts on the
taste
and
taste balance
of the wine.
Acidity, measured as
pH
, affects many aspects of wine production and ageing
These include the many chemical and biochemical reactions during fermentations and aging of wine (
see pH significance
).
pH has some affect on
taste
.
Acidity of grape juice and wine, measured as
titratable acidity
, loosely relates to pH.(
see acidity/pH
