When vineyards and grapes are exposed to smoke it can result in wines that are smoky, burnt, ashy or medicinal, which provoke a negative response in consumers. The main goal of this project is to determine the link between grape compositional and wine sensory data and prepare a stock of experimental wines for future work, from grapes exposed to smoke during the 2019-20 bushfires in south-eastern Australia.
