The Jumilla Oenological Laboratory, which is accredited by the National Accreditation Body (ENAC), provides a service to the wine industry for quality control of grapes and wine, and in the last year has about 5,000 samples analyzed, making almost 30,000 determinations.
The defendant analysis is the alcohol content, and include those related to export and quality control of the regulatory boards in the area.
"This accreditation, which is the formal recognition of their technical competence, ensuring maximum credibility in their services as test reports and certificates of analysis issued by it are internationally accepted, which facilitates entry into foreign markets," he said Director General of Agricultural and Food Innovation, Juana Mulero, who visited the facility today.
The Ministry of Water, Agriculture and Environment in Jumilla account with the Wine Train, formed by the oenological laboratory and dependent Murciano Research Institute and Agricultural Development and Food (imide) experimental winery.
The oenological laboratory also performs issuing test reports and certificates of analysis information via electronic administration.
Since March 2013, date of issue of Information Analysis through the eGovernment portal Community, have issued 2,272 certificates.
The research group of the Laboratory has received funding for 14 research projects between regional and national, many of them in collaboration with the research group of Agricultural Chemistry and Food Technology of the University of Murcia, seeking to improve the quality grape and wine of Murcia, specifically the variety Monastrell.
