Mean concentrations of the analytes were lower in the Okanagan wines studied than have been previously reported from other regions. 4-Ethylphenol and 4-ethylguaiacol concentrations were positively correlated with dissolved oxygen levels and negatively correlated with cellar humidity. No relationships were observed between analyte concentrations and temperature, length of barrel aging for the wine under study, barrel age, number of rackings, grape variety, oak type, oak toasting level, and cooper identity.}, issn = {0002-9254}, URL = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/59/1/92}, eprint = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/59/1/92.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Enology and Viticulture} }
