Public talk to explore the clever use of science in wine

Chemistry and physics experts will be visiting Masterton to talk about innovative scientific developments as part of the Victoria University of Wellington 2015 Public Lecture Series. Dr Nicola Gaston will be joined by Dr Rob Keyzers, also a senior lecturer in the School of Chemical and Physical Sciences, who will discuss how chemistry could help New Zealand’s wine industry. Dr Keyzers will describe how the clever use of chemistry can help control the sensory properties of wine, help to unlock new and lucrative markets and, ultimately, enhance sales.
