'Nebbiolo' (Vitis vinifera L.) is renowned for its use in producing monovarietal high-quality red wines, such Barolo and Barbaresco. The fight against fraud to safeguard high-quality productions requires an effective varietal identification system applicable in musts and wines.

In commercial wines, the amplification efficiency was limited by the low amount of grapevine DNA and the presence of PCR inhibitors.

Abstract

'Nebbiolo' (Vitis vinifera L.) is renowned for its use in producing monovarietal high-quality red wines, such Barolo and Barbaresco. The fight against fraud to safeguard high-quality productions requires an effective varietal identification system applicable in musts and wines. 'Nebbiolo'-specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified starting from available databases and 260 genotypes analysed by Vitis18kSNP array. Two SNPs were sufficient to identify 'Nebbiolo' from 1157 genotypes. The SNP TaqMan® genotyping assays developed in this work successfully identified 'Nebbiolo' in all musts and wines collected at different experimental wine-making steps. The high sensitivity of the assays allowed identification of must mixtures at 1% and wine mixtures at 10-20% with non-'Nebbiolo' genotypes. In commercial wines, the amplification efficiency was limited by the low amount of grapevine DNA and the presence of PCR inhibitors. The TaqMan® genotyping assay is a rapid, highly sensitive and specific methodology with remarkable potential for varietal identification in wines.
