Wine Chemistry

Dear Colleagues,

This topical collection will highlight all aspects of wine chemistry from chemical and biochemical reactions in grape berries, to fermentation and storage chemistry, to linkages between chemical composition and sensory properties. We encourage submissions that explore the chemical diversity of grapes and wines, particularly components that impact grape and wine color, flavor and off-flavor, stability and other attributes which influence perceived quality such as pigments; taste, mouthfeel and aroma compounds; nutrients; plant hormones; macromolecules; and other plant and microbial metabolites. Papers that focus on development and application of new analytical tools for characterizing grape and wine composition are also encouraged.

We invite submissions of original research and review articles that explore contemporary issues in grape and wine chemistry for inclusion in this Special Issue of Molecules.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
