Abstract

Dimer procyanidins, galloylated or not, and trimers were analysed in three white grape varieties: Chardonnay, Mauzac and Grenache blanc. Procyanidins were extracted from the different components of the grape cluster (seeds, stems, skins and pulps) and then quantified by HPLC. Procyanidin B1 is the major component in stems and skins while procyanidin B2 is the major component in seeds.
