Comparison of different winemaking processes for improvement of phenolic composition, macro- and microelemental content, and taste sensory attributes of Teran (Vitis vinifera L.) red wines

The effect of four different winemaking processes on phenolic compounds, macro- and microelements, and taste sensory attributes of Teran red wines were studied. The study covered seven days of maceration as a control (TM7), prolonged 10-day maceration (TM10), prolonged post-fermentative 21- day maceration (TM21), and 48-h pre-fermentative maceration heating at 45 °C followed by eight-day standard maceration (TPHT). Phenolic compounds were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV-Vis diode array and fluorescence detection. Analysis of macro- and microelements was conducted by inductively coupled plasma - optical emission spectrometry. Sensory profiles of wine samples were obtained using quantitative descriptive analysis and the 100- point O.I.V./U.I.O.E. method. The results showed a significant increase of 25% in total flavan-3-ols content in TM21 wine. The concentrations of hydroxybenzoic acids increased significantly upon TM21 and TPHT treatment, while particular hydroxycinnamic acids showed a significant increase after TPHT treatment. The obtained results showed differences in the content of macro- and microelements, with significantly higher values of particular elements in TM21 and TPHT wines. Sensory analysis results corresponded to the chemical content of the wines to a great extent. The findings showed that TM21 and TPHT treatments have a positive influence on the taste attributes of the investigated wines.
