Learning outcomes
------------------------
MM: Teoria
------------------------
The purpose of this course is to provide knowledge concerning the main steps of the winemaking process and the management of the related technological variables, in relation to the chemical and biochemical mechanisms taking place during winemaking. In addition to discussing the major red and white winemaking protocols, the course features a section on ‘special’ winemaking procedures, including production of rosé wines, sparkling wines, low sulfites wines and wines from withered grapes. The mechanisms contributing to wine ageing and maturation will be discussed in relationship to the most recent advances in wine science.
------------------------
MM: Laboratorio
------------------------
The course provides practical knowledge about major procedures of process and quality control in the wine industry.
