1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Understanding how chemical composition, phenolic profile, volatile compounds and sensory attributes evolve during wine aging is essential for optimizing quality in premium red wines. This study investigated four consecutive vintages (2017-2020) of Xinomavro red wine (PDO Amyndeo), each produced under identical viticultural and enological conditions and aged for either 12 or 24 months in French oak barrels. Comprehensive chemical, phenolic, colorimetric and volatile analyses were combined with sensory evaluation and multivariate statistics to elucidate vintage- and aging-driven differences. Wines aged for 24 months exhibited higher phenolic richness and antioxidant capacity, with the 2020-24 m sample showing the highest total polyphenols (4230 mg GAE/L) and FRAP values. Sensory analysis revealed clear differentiation among vintages, with younger wines expressing red fruit and tomato leaf aromas, while older vintages displayed dried fruit, caramel, spice and oak-derived notes. PCA demonstrated that PC1 captured phenolic and antioxidant variation, PC2 reflected chromatic intensity and residual sugars, and PC3 represented spicy/vegetal and acidity-related attributes. Multivariate correlation analysis confirmed strong associations between phenolic indices, volatile compounds, and sensory descriptors. Overall, the integration of chemical fingerprinting, volatile profiling and sensory evaluation provides valuable insights into how vintage and barrel aging shape the complexity and quality of Xinomavro wines.
