TY - JOUR T1 - Control of Malo-Lactic Fermentation in Wine JF - American Journal of Enology and Viticulture JO - Am J Enol Vitic.

Peterson AU - Mirjam Van Gelderen Y1 - 1971/01/01 UR - http://www.ajevonline.org/content/22/1/1.abstract N2 - Fumaric acid was found to inhibit malo-lactic fermentation in 'Pinot noir', 'Pinot Chardonnay' ,and 'Gamay Beaujolais' wines by Leuconostoc citrovorum, ML-34. It is suggested that fumaric acid used as an acidulant in certain wines may also act as a guarantee against unwanted malo-lactic fermentation. Conversely, wines in which a malo-lactic fermentation is desirable should remain free from added fumaric acid. ER -
