Antociani ed acidi cinnamici per la caratterizzazione di vitigni in zone diverse della Toscana

Abstract

The phenolic compounds (cathechins, cynnamic acids, anthocyanidins) in wines made from 6 vine-varieties (Sangiovese, Cabernet S., Nero d’Avola, Foglia Tonda, Pinot N., Mazzese) grown in 4 different pedoclimatic zones of Tuscany (Arezzo, Grosseto, Pisa and Lucca) have been analyzed by HPLC. The analytical datas were statisticaly worked out by Anova, Ancova, principal components analysis ACP and linear factorial discriminant analysis. A significati­ve differentiation in the phenolic composition of 6 vine-varieties have been found, so that an analytical key of separation has been found too. But also the 4 zones gave useful indication on the different behaviour of same vine-varieties (Sangiovese, Foglia Tonda, Nero d’Avola) in the different zones, so a positive interaction between the vine-variety and the environment was supposed. The other vine-varieties didn’t show phenolic composition significatively different in the 4 zones.

South Africa’s top 10 Sauvignon blanc wines. How do the chemical and sensory profiles compare?

FNB Top 10 Sauvignon Blanc competition, presented by the Sauvignon Blanc Interest Group of South Africa and sponsored by First National Bank, is the country’s foremost platform for producers of this cultivar to showcase and benchmark their wines. Wines entered in the competition originated from all over the winegrowing regions of the country and the winning wines showed good representation of quality South African Sauvignon blanc wines. The ten selected wines were subjected to various chemical analyses including volatile thiol and methoxypyrazine determination, while the sensory profile of each wine was determined using projective mapping.

Enhanced polyphenol extraction during Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon wine making

The quality of red wine depends on the composition of polyphenols influencing wine color and taste. The question is, how much we must fear over extraction, especially of seed tannins, under cool climate conditions. The extraction of polyphenols from grape skins and grape seeds were investigated for the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot noir
