C. Gomezcordoves et Ml. Gonzalezsanjose, INTERPRETATION OF COLOR VARIABLES DURING THE AGING OF RED WINES - RELATIONSHIP WITH FAMILIES OF PHENOLIC-COMPOUNDS, Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 43(3), 1995, pp. 557-561
The two different methods of color measurement proposed by Glories and
Gonzales were applied to different red wines aged in the wood (''cria
nza'' aging) and in the bottle for 11 months, and the color of variabl
es of the two methods were compared. Brightness could only be measured
using the latter method. Relationships between the color variables an
d certain families of phenolic compounds were established.
