About
Jean-Roch Mouret is a leading researcher in wine and fermentation science, with a particular focus on the aromatic chemistry of spirits and the metabolic engineering of yeast. His work centers on how nitrogen nutrition and yeast strain selection shape the volatile compound profiles of wine distillates, especially those from Ugni blanc grape musts used in Cognac production. In his most-cited study (2022, 13 citations), Mouret demonstrated that the form of nitrogen—organic versus inorganic—supplied to *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* during fermentation significantly alters the aromatic profile of the resulting distillate, offering winemakers a precise tool to modulate flavor. This contribution bridges fundamental yeast physiology with practical oenology, providing actionable insights for the spirits industry. Mouret’s research is notable for its integration of analytical chemistry, microbiology, and sensory science, and his findings are increasingly referenced in studies on fermentation optimization and aroma precursor metabolism. His work continues to influence sustainable practices in viticulture and distillation, making him a key figure in the science of fine spirits.
