Exploring Relationships between Aroma, Tasty Components Properties, and Marketing Price of Chinese Cabernet Sauvignon Using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrum and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography

Table 2

Volatile compounds identified in 12 Cabernet sauvignon red wines with different marketing prices, including concentration (mg/L), the Kovats Index of aroma compounds on HP-INNOWAX (KI) and sensory descriptor for each compound detected by SPME/GC-MS. Each sample was analysed in triplicate. The obtained coefficients of regression (R2) were >0.998, and the relative standard deviations (RSD) were <5%.
