RESUMO

This work performs an exploratory analysis of the sparkling wines from the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Samples of traditional sparkling wine and Moscatel sparkling wine were analyzed and chemometrics tools were applied to physicochemical, gas chromatography and stable carbon isotope analysis. The carbon isotope ratio (δ13C-CO2) of the samples presents great heterogeneity and confirm that the isotopic signature of the CO2 could be derived from the fermentation of C4 sugar. The principal component analysis (PCA) was capable to discriminate and classify the samples in their respective groups and combined data approach was especially important to identify the correlation between the studied variables. With the increasing production of sparkling wines in Brazil, this work helps to evaluate the standards of the local sparkling wines.
