Enological potential of Syrah to produce tropical red wines in Northeast Brazil.

In Northeastem of Brazil, the region of the Sub-middle São Francisco River Valley is the second largest producer of fine wines. Wine production is relatively recent, the first wines were commercialized in the 1980's. The edaphoclimatic conditions of the region allow the grapevine to produce two or three crops per year, depending on the cycle of each cultivar, mainly due to the annual average temperature of 26°C, high solar radiation index and water availability for irrigation. The European grape varieties are the most cultivated and intra-annual climate variability promote specific metabolic responses of the vines, which influence the biochemical composition of the grapes and wines, according to the harvest date.
