Malic acid is an organic compound with the formula HO2CCH2CHOHCO2H. It is a dicarboxylic acid that is made by all living organisms, contributes to the pleasantly sour taste of fruits, and is used as a food additive. Malic acid has two stereoisomeric forms (L- and D-enantiomers), though only the L-isomer exists naturally. The salts and esters of ma...

Malic acid (hydroxysuccinic acid) is a dibasic hydroxyacid occurring in unripe fruits, particularly the berries of the mountain ash and in apples. Malic acid on reduction yields succinic acid, and when heated loses water, and yields the isomeric fumaric and maleic acids.

A strong acid found in high concentrations in unripe grapes, and still present in ripe grapes. It is the type of acid associated with sour green apples. This can be good in white wines, but often overpowering in reds. Malic acid is softened and turned to lactic acid through malolactic fermentation.

One of the two primary acids found naturally in grapes. Malic acid levels are higher in grapes grown in cool climates or under dense shaded grapevine canopies. As malic acid has a strong acid taste which tends to be metallic like when in excess, winemakers encourage malolactic fermentation in order to reduce its effect.
