“…Different extraction methodologies, such as simultaneous distillationextraction (SDE), Soxhlet extraction , liquid-liquid extraction (Caldeira et al, 2004), solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) (Jordão et al, 2006;Bozalongo et al, 2007) and accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) (Vichi et al, 2007), have been tested to meet sample preparation requirements. The phenolic compounds of red wine aged in contact to oak chips have also been identified (Del Alamo et al, 2004a, 2004bMatejícek et al, 2005;Del Alamo & Domínguez, 2006;Pérez-Magariño et al, 2009). To the best of our knowledge, the phenolic composition of oak or oak chips has not yet been studied from an oenological point of view, with the exception of several works describing oak and chestnut wood used in brandy ageing (Canas et al, 1999(Canas et al, , 2007.…”
