The use of Botrytis cinerea Pers. in the production of sweet table wines

Klayton E. Nelson and M. A. Amerine

Hilgardia, 1957, vol. 26, issue 12

Abstract: Fine sweet table wines of the Sauternes type owe their quality to a fungus, Botrytis cinerea Pers., which causes the affected grapes to, shrivel and the percentage of sugar per unit of volume to increase. The quantity of wine produced is relatively small, but its quality is proportionately high.
