Qualification of 'Bordô' grape clones in Vale do Rio do Peixe, in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil

Qualificação de clones da uva 'Bordô' no Vale do Rio do Peixe, em Santa Catarina

Abstract:

The objective of this work was to characterize the productive and qualitative performances of 11 clones of 'Bordô' grape (Vitis labrusca) destined to wine and juice production, in the region of Vale do Rio do Peixe, in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. The experiment was carried out in the 2011, 2012, 2014, and 2015 crop seasons. The analyzed yield components were: number of clusters per vine, yield, cluster weight, accumulated yield, and alternate bearing index. The analyzed morphological characteristics of clusters were: number of berries per cluster, berry diameter, cluster compactness index, and cluster length. In order to assess grape quality, the following parameters were analyzed: soluble solids (SS), pH, titratable acidity (TA), SS/TA ratio, total anthocyanins, and total polyphenols. The 'Bordô' grape clones 13 and 16 ('Paco' and 'Bocaina') are the most suitable ones for cultivation in the wine producing region of Vale do Rio do Peixe, as they show the highest yields, production stability, and grapes with adequate quality for wine and juice elaboration.
