Notes:
Summary Characterization of French oak samples used in the ageing of wines and spirits can be achieved by determination of the composition of their volatile fraction. Soxhlet extraction and simultaneous extraction-distillation have been used to obtain different voltatile fractions. analysis of these fractions by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry enables tentative identification of up to ninety six components including phenols, furans, terpenes, acids, esters, and lactones. The results obtained depend on the method and solvent used.
