As part of Queensland Museum South Bank’s exciting Science for Life! program celebrating National Science Week, we are holding a special evening event: Science After Dark: Radical Wine.
Science After Dark: Radical Wine 27 August, 5pm- 8pm
We have all heard that wine is good for us in moderation because it contains antioxidants. But what exactly are antioxidants? Why do some wines taste peppery, while others have hints of vanilla or marzipan? What happens when wines spoil?
This delicious event will reveal the chemistry behind these questions, invite you to conduct scientific experiments on wine and put what you have learnt into practice by tasting a selection of Queensland wines from local winemakers.
The evening will also include two talks: Antioxidants in Wine (6.00pm) and The Chemistry of Winemaking (6.45pm).
Stay a while, taste some wine and view our exhibitions After Dark. Cash bar and light refreshments available.
Presented by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Free Radical Chemistry http://www.freeradical.org.au/
When: Fri 27 August, 5:00pm – 8:00pm Where: Level 2. Queensland Museum South Bank. Cnr Grey & Melbourne Streets, South Bank, Brisbane QLD 4101. More info ph: 07 3840 7555. Entry: Free.
