NMR-based metabolomics in wine science

As metabolomics is becoming an emerging field of 'omics' research, NMR serves as one of the major analytical approaches of the decade in metabolomic study, producing information-rich, highly reliable and reproducible data set in non-targeted or global and multivariate statistical analysis. Recently, NMR is successfully being used to characterize wine and find an association of wine metabolite with environmental and fermentative factors in vineyard and making wine. This review describes important analytical features and recent applications in/of NMR-based metabolomics in wine science.
