Tourne. The wine becomes gassy-with a thoroughly disagreeable aroma and taste resembling that of acescence-hazes, and loses its colour. Tourne is caused by bacteria attacking tartaric acid and chemically shows a loss of tartrates, an increase of volatile acidity, and a decrease of fixed acidity and acid strength. 1, record 2, English, - tourne

La maladie de l'amertume altère, parfois, les vins en bouteilles, plus particulièrement les vins rouges de Bourgogne. Leur saveur est d'abord fade; par la suite, elle devient franchement amère. À ce stade, une partie importante de la matière colorante est insolubilisée. 2, record 3, French, - amertume

L'acidité volatile intervient puissamment dans la saveur d'un vin et aussi dans son bouquet; dès qu'elle dépasse le seuil citrique de 0,80 g, le vin a quelque chose de faux à la dégustation puis, au fur et à mesure que le pourcentage augmente, le vin devient brûlant et piquant, puis franchement aigre. On dit que le vin est piqué [...] 2, record 5, French, - acidit%C3%A9%20volatile

La graisse est une altération qui se manifeste surtout sur les vins blancs mal soignés et mal constitués : faibles en alcool et pauvres en tanin. Ces vins deviennent fades et se troublent. Ils filent comme de l'huile et remplissent le verre sans bruit. La présence de gaz carbonique produit une légère effervescence. 1, record 6, French, - graisse

D'après Muller-Thurgau et Osterwalder, la graisse ne serait pas une maladie, mais simplement la conséquence de la fermentation malo-lactique dans les vins mal constitués. 1, record 6, French, - graisse
