Description of sensory profile of tropical wines of guard issued in the Valley of São Francisco, Northeast Brazil.

The objective of this study was to characterize the sensory profile of tropical wine of guard produced in the São Francisco Valley, Northeast Brazil. Two commercial wines, a varietal wine Touriga Nacional and an assemblage wine composed by Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), Syrah (30%) and Alicante Bouschet (10%) were kept for 12 months in oak barrel. Latter, the samples were coded with three-digit numbers and blind tested in standard crystal tasting glasses, model ISO, in aliquots of 40 mL at 18 °C by an expert panel of ten experts with over five years of experience in sensory wine analysis. Three evaluation sheets (descriptive, score and nonparametric) were used. The assemblage wine was characterized in flavor intensity and floral taste, vegetal and woody taste, and taste intensity. Touriga Nacional wine was more evident due to higher clarity, tone and visual intensity, olfactory persistence, fruity, toasty and woody aromas, bitter taste, fruity spice flavors, body, typicality and quality taste.
