A better tasting summer
If your red wine doesn't taste mature enough this summer, don't fret. Michelle Barton, a student from The University of Auckland, is researching a solution for the problem.
Michelle, a Bachelor of Science student is studying Wine Science over summer as part of a Summer Scholarship programme run by the Faculty of Science.
