Studio dei profili delle sostanze aromatiche glicosilate di vitigni (Vitis vinifera L) autoctoni dell’Emilia-Romagna

Research on the glycosylated fraction of volatiles aims to investigate the mostly unexpressed aromatic potential of a grapevine. This reservoir of aromatic molecules is partially released during the production and aging of the wine and targeted technological interventions would allow the enhancement of the non aromatic grapevines. The analysis of eleven cultivars and accessions grown in Reggio Emilia highlighted that, apart from Malvasia di Candia aromatica, already studied for its rich component of monoterpenic compounds, Trebbiano di Spagna showed, as well, a very interesting profile with the presence of high concentrations of some monoterpenic alcohols. The other cvs showed a higher homogeneity of composition and a general lack of flavor with a few exceptions
