Metabolic profiles of Brazilian tropical wines determined by H NMR spectroscopy and chemometrics.

Tropical wines are a new concept of vitiviniculture that is being developped principally in Brazi1. This new Brazilian frontier is located Northeast region in Pemambuco State, closed to the Equator line (between 8-9° latitude of the south hemisphere). Comparing these conditions with other Brazilian and worldwide vineyards, grapes present different characteristics, producing typical wines called "wines of sun", presenting differences between them according to the month of production. In this region it is possible to harvest grapes alI months in the year, and one vine produces two-three harest by year, depending of the cycle of each cultivar, and grapevines are irrigated by drip. This characteristic is due to the singularity of the hot climate and soils of this region, being the second great producer region of fine wines of Brazil, afier Rio Grande do Sul (Sollth of Brazil).
