The monomeric, oligomeric, and polymeric flavan-3-ol composition of wines, grape seeds, and skins from Vitis vinifera L. cv. Graciano, Tempranillo, and Cabernet Sauvignon has been studied using (1) fractionation by polyamide column chromatography followed by HPLC/ESI-MS analysis, (2) fractionation on C18 Sep-Pak cartridges followed by reaction with vanillin and acid-catalyzed degradation in the presence of toluene-α-thiol (thiolysis). The content of monomers ((+)-catechin and (−)-epicatechin), procyanidin dimers (B3, B1, B4, and B2), trimers (T2 and C1), and dimer gallates (B2-3-O-gallate, B2-3‘-O-gallate, and B1-3-O-gallate) ranged from 76.93 to 133.18 mg/L in wines, from 2.30 to 8.21 mg/g in grape seeds, and from 0.14 to 0.38 mg/g in grape skins. In wines, the polymeric fraction represented 77−84% of total flavan-3-ols and showed a mean degree of polymerization (mDP) value of 6.3−13.0. In grapes, the polymeric fraction represented 75−81% of total flavan-3-ols in seeds and 94−98% in skins and showed mDP values of 6.4−7.3 in seeds and 33.8−85.7 in skins. All the monomeric flavan-3-ols and oligomeric procyanidins found in wines were also present in seeds, although differences in their relative abundances were seen. The skin polymeric proanthocyanidins participated in the equilibration of the wine polymeric proanthocyanidin fraction, especially contributing to the polymer subunit composition and mDP.
