Limited relationship between temporality of sensory perception and phenolic composition of red wines

In wine, polyphenols are closely associated with astringency, bitterness, color and aroma. Some of these sensory parameters have been reported to be dynamically perceived during wine tasting. In this study, time-dependent sensory methodologies (Temporal Dominance of Sensations or TDS, and Temporal-Check-All-That-Apply or TCATA) were used to characterize wines made from six grape varieties. Sensory analysis was contrasted against the phenolic...
