Optimisation of Retsina Wine Quality: Effects of Resin Concentration, Yeast Strain, and Oak Chip Type.

Retsina, Greece's most renowned traditional wine, has been produced for millennia, with archaeological and historical evidence supporting its legacy. It is legally defined as wine made exclusively in Greece using grape must infused with Aleppo pine resin (). This study examines the effects of varying resin concentrations (0.

Benzothiadiazole Affects Grape Polyphenol Metabolism and Wine Quality in Two Greek Cultivars: Effects during Ripening Period over Two Years.

Grape berries are one of the most important sources of phenolic compounds, either consumed fresh or as wine. A pioneer practice aiming to enrich grape phenolic content has been developed based on the application of biostimulants such as agrochemicals initially designed to induce resistance against plant pathogens. A field experiment was conducted in two growing seasons (2019-2020) to investigate the effect of benzothiadiazole on polyphenol biosynthesis during grape ripening in Mouhtaro (red-colored) and Savvatiano (white-colored) varieties.

The Effect of Water Deficit on Two Greek L. Cultivars: Physiology, Grape Composition and Gene Expression during Berry Development.

Plants are exposed to numerous abiotic stresses. Drought is probably the most important of them and determines crop distribution around the world. Grapevine is considered to be a drought-resilient species, traditionally covering semiarid areas.

Explore the Rare-Molecular Identification and Wine Evaluation of Two Autochthonous Greek Varieties: "Karnachalades" and "Bogialamades".

Wines produced from autochthonous varieties have an essential financial impact on the national economy of Greece. However, scientific data regarding characteristics and quality aspects of these wines is extremely limited. The aim of the current study is to define the molecular profile and to describe chemical and sensory characteristics of the wines produced by two autochthonous red grapevine varieties-"Karnachalades" and "Bogialamades"-grown in the wider area of Soufli (Thrace, Greece).
