The stability of calcium tartrate in wines – 2021
The management of calcium tartrate (CaT) instability represents a new and increasingly common oenological challenge from which the oenologist can no longer escape. Factors favoring the presence of this criticality are known, analytical methods for its quantification exist, and there is no shortage of safe and easy-to-implement solutions.
The module on the topic, run by Enartis and divided into three speeches, summarizes the main information on the topic.
The first video with a viticultural slant considers the functions of calcium in the vine and the factors that can determine its increase in grapes. The second video presents a review of the main information useful for its oenological management, and the last concludes by proposing the situation in the Prosecco area as an example.
