For example, when Riesling is grown in a cool climate, TDN is usually perceived only after 6 years of aging, whereas in hot areas, TDN can accumulate much earlier and stronger. Similarly, grapes exposed to direct sunlight produce higher TDN than those grown in the shade." -- A. Linsenmeier and O. Löhnertz -- South African Journal of Enology and Viticulture. 28(1):17-24. 2007 Another side note for those wine nuts out there about TDN and when you can expect to experience it in your Riesling or Chardonnay:
