Abstract

The qualitative volatile composition of simultaneous distillationextraction (SDE) extracts of different types of cork stoppers has been determined. Eighty one volatile compounds have been identified, belonged to different chemical families: terpenoids, aliphatic carbonyl compounds, furanoids, carboxylic acids, esters, phenolic compounds, alkanes and alcohols. Compounds responsible for the organoleptic wine defect known as �cork taint�, like 2,4,6-trichloroanisole, 1-octen-3-ol, 1-octen-3-one and geosmin, were found in all the cork samples.
