1 Values are listed as mean ± standard deviation of six to eight samples per grape variety. Values on the same line followed by a different letter are significantly different according to Tukey’s least significant difference test (p ≤ 0.05). When a compound could be quantified in more than 50% of samples, but found to be under LOQ in the remaining samples, the mean was calculated using all samples, with the quantification value for samples above LOQ, and with LOQ/2 in samples containing levels below LOQ; nd: Not detected; tr: Compound was found below LOQ in most samples.
