The "Zaoheibao" fruit with rich rose-scented grapes was used as the main material to optimize the fermentation process of "Zaoheibao" wine. Its composition in volatile aroma compounds was determined by headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis, indicating that "Zaoheibao" wine has strong ester, fruity and floral characteristics. The addition of 30 mg/L SO 2 and 200 mg/L yeast, and a fermentation time of 6 days were indicated as the optimal fermentation conditions, where 35 volatile aroma substances were detected and a relative ester content of 45.59% was achieved. Among the identified ester compounds, isoamyl ester, ethyl octanoate, ethyl acetate, 2-methyltetrahydrothiophen-3-one, 4-hydroxy-2-butanone, linalool and 2,4-dimethyl-1-heptene contributed mainly to the aroma characteristics of "Zaoheibao" wine. The obtained results will allow the production of higher quality "Zaoheibao" wine and serve as a guide to improve the characteristics of other wine varieties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
