Effect of frost

[edit]

The article says "becoming sweet after a frost due to drop in acid levels as the grape decomposes". I think this is wrong. Decomposition is not involved. The grapes become sweet after a frost because the cells of the grape increase their sucrose content to prevent freezing. Maproom (talk) 22:20, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
