Enochemical Analysis

The course treats in detail the theoretical and applied aspects of the main methods of oenochemical analysis.
The course aims to provide: - theoretical-practical tools necessary for the choice of the most appropriate analytical methods according to the different professional problems (control of the maturity of the grapes, management of the winemaking process) - tools necessary for the correct interpretation of the analytical results and knowledge of the limits of the various methodologies - legislation on oenology for quality control and fraud.

Knowledge of the chemical reactivity of the main constituents of grapes and wines, knowledge of the main analytical methods of oenological interest and of oenological legislation on quality control and genuineness.
Ability to perform chemical and simple instrumental analyses for routine oenological control or characterization, ability to interpret the analytical results.
