SENSORIAL ATTRIBUTES OF MONO AND MULTI VARIETAL RED WINES OBTAINED IN GALICEA MARE VITICULTURAL AREA
Abstract
Assortment of red wine quality wine center Galicea Mare is composed of 4 varieties widespread worldwide - Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Syrah - and local variety FeteascДѓ Neagra. Since 2011 many experiments were performed to obtain the 5 monovarietal wine from this varieties and wine multivarietals by combinations of thereof. The results of these experiments show that the local variety FeteascДѓ Neagra is well adapted on climatic conditions, soil and elevation of the vineyard, so monovarietal wines made from this variety were every year, the best in terms of senzory. FeteascДѓ Neagra wine color is very similar in intensity to that of Merlot and Syrah wines but has a touch clearer, more lighter. Primary aroma, varietal type, is dominated by notes of fruit, especially prunes, evolving to coffee and chocolate Multivarietal wines containing FeteascДѓ Neagra have a complex flavor, in which were found many kind fruit flavors, especially prunes, blackberries, cherries and food flavors. At taste these wines are balanced, fleshy, with plenty of onctuosity due to high content in alcohol and glycerol and a lower astringency. These wines are good for consumption after 1-2 years. The wines containing Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah have the smell more intense on vegetal notes, harsh taste, astringency and extra bitterness and are good for consumption after a minimum of 2-3 years.
