Sugars in wine as chaptalization solely in order to boost the alcohol content – chaptalization does not increase the "sweetness" of a wine. Glucose, along with fructose, is one of the primary sugars found in wine grapes. In wine, glucose tastes less sweet than fructose. It is a six-carbon sugar molecule derived from the breakdown of sucrose. At the beginning of the ripening stage there is usually more glucose than fructose present in the grape (as much as five times more) but the rapid development of fructose shifts the ratio to where at harvest there are generally equal amounts. Grapes that are over
Energy Brix Power Station Energy Brix Power Station The Energy Brix Power Station was a brown coalfired thermal power station located at Morwell, in Victoria, Australia.
