Seyval blanc wines aged with American oak chips from air- and kiln-dried wood staves were compared for nonflavonoid phenols and sensory characteristics. The wood staves were obtained from eight American white oak trees and were air- and kiln-dried. Although there was no significant treatment effect, the nonflavonoid phenols tended to be higher for wines aged with kiln-dried chips. The results of the sensory tests indicated that those wines with large differences in phenolic levels were detected by the taste panelists.
Key words: oak, aging, Seyval blanc
