The bouquet of a wine refers to those unique aromas that develop after fermentation and during the aging process. Sometimes these are referred to as tertiary aromas.
During fermentation, yeast consumes some of the sugar naturally present in the grapes and produces alcohol. During the aging process, some of the alcohol combines with fruit acids to form aldehydes and esters via oxidation. This happens gradually over time as oxygen gradually gains access to the bottle through a cork (or a screw cap fitted with a plastic liner that allows a slow gas transmission rate). The aromas in the wine's bouquet are attributed to these aldehyde and ester products of oxidation.
Once a wine is opened, it should be allowed to "breathe" or to rapidly accelerate the oxidation process to allow for the full development of the aroma producing compounds. When tasting wine, one should swirl the wine in the glass to volatilize the esters (physically accelerate their move from the liquid into the air space in the glass so that bouquet can be enjoyed to its fullest.
