Phenolic Compounds As Markers of Wine Quality and Authenticity
foods Review Phenolic Compounds as Markers of Wine Quality and Authenticity Vakare˙ Merkyte˙ 1,2 , Edoardo Longo 1,2,* , Giulia Windisch 1,2 and Emanuele Boselli 1,2 1 Faculty of Science and Technology, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Piazza Università 5, 39100 Bozen-Bolzano, Italy; [email protected] (V.M.); [email protected] (G.W.); [email protected] (E.B.) 2 Oenolab, NOI Techpark South Tyrol, Via A. Volta 13B, 39100 Bozen-Bolzano, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0471-017691 Received: 29 October 2020; Accepted: 28 November 2020; Published: 1 December 2020 Abstract: Targeted and untargeted determinations are being currently applied to different classes of natural phenolics to develop an integrated approach aimed at ensuring compliance to regulatory prescriptions related to specific quality parameters of wine production. The regulations are particularly severe for wine and include various aspects of the viticulture practices and winemaking techniques. Nevertheless, the use of phenolic profiles for quality control is still fragmented and incomplete, even if they are a promising tool for quality evaluation. Only a few methods have been already validated and widely applied, and an integrated approach is in fact still missing because of the complex dependence of the chemical profile of wine on many viticultural and enological factors, which have not been clarified yet. For example, there is a lack of studies about the phenolic composition in relation to the wine authenticity of white and especially rosé wines. This review is a bibliographic account on the approaches based on phenolic species that have been developed for the evaluation of wine quality and frauds, from the grape varieties (of V. -

Thierry & Guy Remarkably Full Bo D
THIERRY & GUY REMARKABLY FULL BODIED Elegantly round and perfectly sculpted, FAT bastard boasts & GUY THIERRY a cheeky, new label that draws inspiration from the iconic French Topiary—an art form appreciated for its style and REMARKABLY FULL BODIED REMARKABLY structure—much like our selection of FAT bastard wines! The topiary has long been regarded as the final touch to remarkable masterpieces like King Louis XIV’s Garden of Versailles; let that legacy live on with FAT bastard, the perfect finishing touch to any culinary masterpiece! Yummicus Cabernayem The story Good friends Thierry (renowned French winemaker) and Guy (British wine industry rebel) created FAT bastard almost by accident. It started out as an experiment Thierry had going in the back of his cellar, leaving a barrel “on the lees” (yeast cells). He didn’t know what to expect, but when he and Guy tried the wine, Thierry exclaimed, with a strong French accent, “Now zat iz what you call eh Phet bast-ard!” This very British expression perfectly described the wine’s wonderful color and round, rich palate, so that’s what they named it. Initially launched in 1998, FAT bastard was born out of a partnership between renowned French winery Gabriel Meffre and Winebow. Sourced from the low-yielding vineyards of the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France, the wines are remarkably accessible with a vibrant, fruit-forward style. With an emphasis on quality and a reputation as a brand that does not take itself too seriously, it is no wonder that Time magazine has referred to FAT bastard as, -
