Many compounds showed significant differences between the wine groups, as proved by Tukey's test, e.g. for methanol, trans and cis 3-hexen-1-ols andre levant ratio, benzaldehyde and 4-vinylguaiacol in the first category, and for the most part of compounds of the other two categories. Loureira and most Albariiio wines contain linalool and ho-trienol at a Ievel of sensorial contribution. The relevant average terpene profiles show many similarites, especially for Albariiio and particularly if considering the contents and relevant ratios of furan and pyran linalool oxide isomers, of ho-diendiols I and II and of geraniol. On the other band differences could be stated for some compounds, mostly under the bound forms. Godello wines, with the poorest content of monoterpenols under both forms, are principally characterized by a marked Ievel of bound benzaldehyde, with contemporary presence of a considerable average Ievel of the free form. PCA data treatments on both monoterpenols and aglycons from the bound forms, showed a good separation among the groups as weil a good homogeneity and varietal correspondence of the wines.
