Perception of sparkling wines of varying carbonation levels using quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) and temporal check-all-that-apply (TCATA)
Carbonation is an important temporal sensory property of sparkling wine. In this study, sparkling wines of different carbonation (CO2) levels (n = 11) were prepared through the addition of varying concentrations of dextrose during the winemaking process. Sparkling wines, ranging in CO2 concentration from 0.0 to 7.5 g of CO2/L (P≤ 0.05), were evaluated by a trained panel (n =
