“…The list of possible compounds producing unpleasant aromas in cork is relatively large, but many reports showed that the highest incidence of musty, earthy odour are due to 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (TCA), 2-methoxy-3,5-dimethylpirazine (MDMP) responsible for fungal must and 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA). Other compounds, such as 1-octen-3-ol, 1-octen-3-one (mushroom aroma), guaiacol (smoky, phenolic aroma) and geosmin (trans-1,10-dimethyl-trans-9-decanol) and 2-methylisoborneol (earthy aroma) have also been reported (Prat et al , 2009). Disinfectant-like or swimming pool-like taints have been recognized in some wines, and chlorophenols have been associated with this particular taint (Capone et al , 2010).…”
