Abstract

Fruit wine production is a practical approach for extending the shelf life and enhancing the value of strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa). Fruit cultivars and juices are important sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that determine fruit wine sensory quality. In this study, VOCs in the juices and wines of four strawberry cultivars were identified using two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and a sensory analysis of the wines was performed. A total of 1028 VOCs were detected. PCA and OPLS-DA distinguished the four cultivars from which the juices and wines were made. Six VOCs with variable importance in projection values greater than one were the main aroma and flavor components of strawberry wines. ZJ wine had the highest sensory scores for coordination (9.0) and overall evaluation (8.9) among the 18 descriptors of strawberry wine evaluated. Overall, the ZJ wine had the highest alcohol content (13.25 ± 0.59%, v/v) and sensory evaluation score, indicating that the ZJ cultivar is more suitable for fermentation. This study reflects the differences between wines made from four strawberry cultivars and provides a reference for brewing fruit wines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
