Quality of Wine Grape Cultivars Grown in Czech Republic.

This research aims to make an analysis of significant parameters in wine grape from Czech Republic. It was evaluated pH, content of sugar, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity, total phenolic content and texture properties. For analyzes 5 samples of wine grape were used, harvested during the three periods. The results show that during the ripening of wine grapes there were changes of selected qualitative parameters, particularly of total polyphenols, sugar and some varieties of wine grape also ascorbic acid (significantly in the variety ’Grüner Veltliner’, ’Chardonnay’, ’Pinot Blanc’). Pronounced changes qualitative parameters were among wine grapes harvested the 1st and 2nd seasons. Changes in textural properties also occurred during the harvest and for most varieties between 2nd and 3rd period of harvest. The PCA grouped chemical parameters of wine grape in independent sets and can be used as assessment tool of wine cultivars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
