CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF RED AND GREEN GRAPES

Abstract
The article provides an in-depth analysis of the role each chemical component present in grapes. The sugars, predominantly glucose and fructose, determine the sweetness level, while acids such as tartaric and malic contribute to the wine's acidity and balance. The intricate world of polyphenolic compounds, including tannins, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, is explored in detail, emphasizing their influence on color, structure, and aging potential.
