Cover Story: Traditional winemaking techniques, such as fermenting in ceramic vessels or pitch-coated amphorae, have recently regained attention among producers. However, their chemical impact on wine remains poorly understood. This study characterizes pine pitch, historically used as a coating, and examines how pitched pottery influences vinification and wine composition through a foodomics approach. Using UPLC-MS/MS, we compared wines from pitched and unpitched clay containers, revealing significant differences in polyphenol profiles. These findings highlight the role of the fermentation environment in shaping metabolites and offer new insights for both heritage and modern oenology. View this paper
