Abstract
Non-anthocyanin compounds (NAN) such as flavonol, flavanol, and phenolic acids should be considered in the characterization of minority red grapevine varieties because these compounds are involved in copigmentation reactions and are potent antioxidants. Sixteen NAN were extracted, identified, and quantified by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) from grapes of 28 red genotypes of Vitis vinifera L. grown in Galicia (Northwest of Spain) in 2018 and 2019 vintages. The percentage of total NAN with respect to the total polyphenol content (TPC) values was calculated for each sample and established into three categories: high percentage NAN varieties (NANV), those varieties showing low percentages of NAN (ANV), and finally those varieties showing medium percentages of NAN (NANAV). ‘Xafardán’ and ‘Zamarrica’, classified as NANAV, had high values of TPC and showed good percentages of flavonol and flavanol compounds. Principal component analyses (PCA) were performed with flavonol, flavanol, and phenolic acid profiles. The flavonol and flavanol profiles allowed a good discrimination of samples by variety and year, respectively. The flavonol profile should therefore be considered as a potential varietal marker. The results could help in the selection of varieties to be disseminated and in the identification of the most appropriate agronomic and oenological techniques that should be performed on them.
