Ethanol Vapours to Complement or Suppress Sulfite Fumigation of Table Grapes

Preliminary studies showed that ethanol vapours reduced berry shatter in Chasselas table grapes. We then tested the effect of various doses: 0, 4, and 8 gethanol/kg fruit for various cold storage lengths; 2, 4, and 6 weeks. We measured the berry shatter, stem browning, Botrytis incidence and sensory appreciation by tasting panels. We also ran an experiment in which various doses of ethanol were applied for short periods (less than 6 hours) at the end of the cold storage time, prior to packing. The results will be discussed in the light of antioxidant properties of ethanol.
