Several microvinification experiments were conducted with Vranac red grapes to understand the effect of several enological techniques on the content of (+)-catechin, (-)-epicatechin, and procyanidin B-type dimers and trimer C-1 in wines, which were quantitated by HPLC. Both the length of maceration time and the presence of a high quantity of pomace, seeds, and stems in contact with the must during fermentation led to wines with a higher content of catechins and proanthocyanidins. The addition of a reasonable quantity of supplementary seeds effects catechin and simple lower procyanidin oligomer concentrations higher than those present in wines made by classical production methods.
