Mercaptan Formation

Mercaptan Formation is a chemical process in wine spoilage chemistry whereby sulfur-containing compounds, particularly hydrogen sulfide, react with ethanol or other organic molecules under reductive conditions to yield volatile thiol derivatives known as mercaptans, which are characterized by their pungent, undesirable odors and contribution to sensory defects in wine.
