“…Practices such as mechanical harvesting, skin contact, pressure during pressing and oxygen exposure could significantly increase the precursor content in the juice and influence the volatile thiol concentration in the corresponding wines (Maggu et al, 2007;Patel et al, 2010;Roland et al, 2010b;Capone & Jeffery, 2011). The liberation of the volatile thiols from the respective precursors depends on conditions such as yeast strain, nitrogen availability and fermentation temperature (Murat et al, 2001a;Masneuf-Pomarède et al, 2006;Swiegers et al, 2006;Subileau et al, 2008b;Anfang et al, 2009;Harsch et al, 2013). More detail regarding the influence of these processes on the volatile thiol concentrations can be obtained from a review article published in 2012 (Coetzee & Du Toit, 2012).…”
