8.01.09 - Oxygen and Wine - Research gets specific about oxygen closures, bottling and aging - By Jamie Goode - Wines & Vines, August 2009 (pdf)

Join us this year at the Unified Wine and Grape Symposium held in Sacramento, California.

The "Unified", as industry insiders call it, is where growers, vintners, and industry members meet to review new techniques, equipment, and vendor goods. Known for it's complete picture of the wine industry, this is the "must-see" industry show. Held annually in Sacramento, California, the Unified Wine and Grape Symposium is the largest event of its kind in North America.

We're excited to have you come to our booth to witness first hand tools which are going to revolutionize the wine industry and the wine making process. Come by to see a live demo of our new NomaSense® oxygen testing system. Featured as a cover story in Wines and Vines magazine,

The NomaSense Oxygen Analyzer set

allows for state-of-the-art, non-invasive and non-destructive measurement of total package oxygen (TPO = dissolved + headspace oxygen) using proven luminescence technology. The Fibox comes pre-calibrated and can determine the oxygen concentration at all stages of the winemaking process—including crushing, pressing, fermentation, barrel aging, micro-oxygenation and bottling and bottle aging. It has the lowest limit of detection of all portable analyzers for headspace and dissolved oxygen.
