White wines experimentally produced from the white grape varieties Loureira, Dona Branca, and Treixadura have been analyzed over four consecutive harvests. The contents of monoterpenes, volatile phenols, alcohols, sulfur components, acetates, fatty acids, and ethyl esters were determined by gas chromatography (FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The mean values from four vintages confirmed that these wines have characteristic profiles. Loureira wines are characterized by a high content of free terpenes, 1-hexanol, ethyl acetate, and fatty acids. Dona Branca wines present the highest concentrations of methanol and sulfur constituents, and the lowest concentrations of higher alcohols, acetates, diethyl succinate, and ethyl esters. The levels of monoterpenes in Treixadura wines are very low, but they have the highest concentrations of volatile phenols, principally due to the vanillin, diethyl succinate, ethyl lactate, and ethyl esters. These results were confirmed by principal component and linear discriminant analysis, which show a clear differentiation among these wines as a function of the varietal origin.
