has occupied a significant role in our lives, be it for

winemaking is thus imperative. The preparation of wine involves
steps from harvesting the grapes, fermenting the must, maturing the
wine, stabilizing it finally, to getting the bottled wine to
consumers. The variety of cultivars, methods of production, and
style of wine, along with presentation and consumption pattern add
to the complexity of winemaking. In the past couple of decades,
there have been major technological advances in wine production in
the areas of cultivation of grapes, biochemistry and methods of
production of different types of wines, usage of analytical
techniques has enabled us to produce higher quality wine. The
technological inputs of a table wine, dessert wine or sparkling
wine, are different and has significance to the consumer. The role
played by the killer yeast, recombinant DNA technology, application
of enzyme technology and new analytical methods of wine evaluation,
all call for a comprehensive review of the advances made. This
comprehensive volume provides a holistic view of the basics and
applied aspects of wine production and technology. The book
