Oxidation of Wine: Control for Quality

Summary: Studies testing metal chelation showed significant but relatively small effects, so that it is not clear whether chelating agents would be worth pursuing as protective agents. Final results from prior years were published. A related project on oxidation revealed new oxidation reactions in wine that might help identify markers of oxidation.
