Abstract
The majority of rosé wines are bottled in clear bottles as color is an important factor in consumer preference. Post-bottling wine can be exposed to UV–visible light and temperature fluctuations resulting in quality degradation. This study investigated the impact of bottle color (flint and antique green), light exposure (darkness, LED and fluorescent bulb), and temperature (12 °C and 22 °C) on rosé wine quality using a full factorial design with three different wines (Grenache, Pinot noir and Zinfandel). The impact on chemical composition, color, phenolics and aromatics was determined. Projective mapping was carried out for sensorial analysis. Changes in the aromatics, color and phenolic composition were detectable after three months and more noticeable after six months of storage. Overall, all variables studied impacted rosé wine characteristics significantly. However, higher temperature in combination with clear glass bottles under fluorescent light were the most detrimental conditions.
