Relation between Seed Appearance and Phenolic Maturity: A Case Study Using Grapes cv. Carménère

Sensory evaluation of grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) plays a key role in determining the harvest time in grapevine varieties. The harvest time of cv. Carménère is one of the latest of Chile. During the season 2007-2008, the evolution of the appearance of ’Carménère’ seeds was evaluat...
