The difference between wine and vinegar is that they are produced with different items and through different chemical processes. Wine is created from fermented grape that produce ethyl alcohol from the yeast. Vinegar is made from ethanol, in which bacteria changes it into acetic acid.
wine turns to vinegar when oxygen gets into the bottle due to a defective cork, poor quality cork, or if the cork dries out.
This process is not spontaneous however and involves the action of acetobacter.
During the fermentation process the only thing you can do is keep the fermentation below 75 Degrees F. This keeps the volatile acid production done by the yeast well below acceptable levels.
After fermentation there are 2 basic ways to keep it from turning. It is important to know that it takes oxygen to make vinegar so keep the oxygen out and away.
It actually depends on the wine as to the taste. There are many types of wine. Some have a rich full flavor others are sweet desert wines. The quality of the wine also makes a difference. Wine is also made of different varieties of grapes to give different taste to each wine. There is a real science to making wines.
If it does then the wine has gone bad.
No, it is Chemical change
Oxidation
sour wine, or vinegar, is called 'du vinaigre' in French.
Vinegar (vin aigre = sour wine)
Vinegar can be produced from wine.
vinegar is just sour wine. lol
VINEGAR
Wine contains acetic acid, so it is an acid. Too much acid, though, will make wine taste sour.
vin acide
anything that is sour has acids in them. the more sour they are, the more acids it contains
The first wine that was ever made was extremely tangy so they would have to put water in it so they would't make the omg this is so sour face.
It usually is because if you were eating a sweet dessert and went to drink non-dessert wine, the wine could taste sour or bitter compared to the dessert you are eating. So, usually dessert wines are sweeter.
It's called oxidation. The acids will give up electrons (take in oxygen) and turn from bitter to sour.
Sour grapes aren't ripe and haven't produced the sugar that makes them sweet yet. <><><> Also, wine grapes tend to be more sour and table grapes tend to be sweeter. Wine grapes aren't necessarily intended to be eaten and table grapes are.
