During grpe see mturtion, the flvnol onentrtion generlly exhiite rpi erese in the first 22 ys, followe y grul erese in the lst stges. These results re in or with other uthors [5, 7,8,34]. However, some proyniins (B4, B2, T2, n B2-3-0-gllte) exhiite smll inrese uring the lst 30 ys of mturtion, prtiulrly in Cstelão Frnês sees. For Tourig Frnes, the evolution of (+)-tehin n (-)-epitehin from grpe sees ws hrterize y rpi inrese, followe y erese in the lst stges of mturtion (Tle 2).

For oth vrieties, B1 ws the min oligomeri proyniin in stems uring mturtion, n t tehnil mturity, it ws 6.5 n 1.93 mg/g for Tourig Frnes n Cstelão Frnês, respetively. At tehnil mturity the most unnt proyniin in oth vrieties ws the trimeri proyniin T2 (7.28 n 8.93 mg/g stem, respetively), whih onfirms other stuies [30,31,32]. The teneny for higher onentrtions of flvnols to our in the erly stges of erry evelopment is pprently typil n suggests tht these polyphenols re tively metolize throughout the growing seson. Aoring to Singleton n Esu [36], these re synthesize fter verison similrly to nthoynins, sugrs, n other grpe omponents. However, Vlero et l. [42] suggeste tht these ompouns erese uring grpe mturtion s onsequene of inrese weight of erries. Conlusions Oligomeri proyniins from sees, stems, n skins in oth Vitis vinifer L. ultivrs erese uring grpe mturtion, primrily in the first stges. However, the vlues foun for Cstelão Frnês were in generl higher thn those reporte y Riro Silv et l. [31], whih proly inites the importne of the vintge n/or the terroir. For exmple, uring 1995, the temperture in the Plmel region (south of Lison) ws on verge hotter thn norml in Portugl (in August the mximum verge temperture ws 32 C). The glloylte imeri proyniins (B1-3-0-gllte, B2-3- 0-gllte, n B2-3 -0-gllte) onstitute the smllest group of proyniins in sees n stems uring grpe mturtion. At tehnil mturity, Cstelão Frnês h the highest onentrtion of proyniins in sees, while Tourig Frnes grpes h the highest onentrtion in stems. Grpe sees ontine the most flvnols n so represent the est soure of oligomeri pronthoyniins for ommeril reovery. Literture Cite 1. Bourzeix, M., D. Weyln, n N. Herei.
