When Is It Over-Oxygenation?
Defects associated with excessive oxygen exposure appear
Dependent upon wine composition

Issues With Over-Oxygenation
Chemical
Enzymatic
Microbial

Chemical Issues
Alcohols become aldehydes Organic acids become keto acids Reaction with thiols and loss of varietal character Off-Color formationExtensive loss of color and wine
becomes sherry-like

Aldehydes in Wine
Aldehydes Acetaldehyde from oxidation of Ethanol
Fusel Aldehydes from oxidation of Fusel Alcohols
Benzaldehyde from oxidation of Benzyl Alcohol
Formed chemically from grape/yeast precursors or directly synthesized by microbes
Perception can be enhanced by acetic acid

Acetaldehyde
Low concentrations: apple, unripe apple
Higher concentrations: oxidized apple, nutty, pungent, chemical
Appearance indicates ethanol is being oxidized and wine should be protected from further oxygen exposure

Fusel Aldehydes
Fusel alcohols (oils) are made during amino acid degradation
Fusel alcohols can be reoxidized to aldehydes during aging
Recent experiments suggest fusel aldehydes may be important “impact” compounds in wine

Fusel Aldehydes
Isobutyraldehyde: banana, acrid, pungent
Isovaleraldehyde: nutty, fruity, cocoa, pungent, acrid
2-Methyl butyraldehyde: aldehydic, berry, cocoa, musty

Benzaldehyde
Characteristic of oxidized wines
Bitter cherry at low concentrations
Chemical taint at higher concentrations
Can be made microbially

Staphylococcus pasteuri
Isolated from MOX wine
Normal grape flora resident
Obligate aerobe – sign of beyond excessive oxygen exposure

Oxygen Treatments of Wine
Need to know the amount of exposure and its consequences and impact on wine, which will vary by the wine
Monitor for signs of excessive oxygen
If push wine to edge of oxygen consumption, will shorten shelf life
