Research Institute (-)-Rotundone
By GC-MS-O, rotundone was established as the
principal aroma impact compound for pepper
aroma in grapes and wine.
O • Identity confirmed with reference
compound (Symrise)
• 1H and 13C NMR, ORD
• GC-MS-O, co-injections
• Quantification using SIDA

How potent is rotundone?
8 ng/L in water 16 ng/L in red wine
20 to 25% of the panellists were anosmic to rotundone

2012 Rotundone level in grapes
Role of:
• genome x environment?
• grape vine?
• in the soil, above surface?
• climate & climate change?
• terroir?
• 177 vines sampled
• 74 – 1081 ng/kg
• distinct spatial pattern
otherwise uniform TSS, TA, colour,...
Variability across the vineyard & vintages:
Nathan Scarlett, RWG; Rob Bramley, CSIRO; Damien Sheehan, MLG
The Australian Wine
Research Institute Conclusions and future directions
Viticulture parameters affected rotundone levels:
Picking date, clone, vigour, leaf removal & crop
load
Why does rotundone occur in Shiraz more often
than other cultivars?
Can rotundone be modulated during winemaking?
