Simple Guyot, double Guyot, horizontal spurred cordon, and vertical spurred cordon were assessed during four years (1992 through 1995). The training systems affected yield but showed little or no impact on grape and wine composition (sugars, grape and wine phenolics). Sensory analysis could not show relevant differences among training systems. Therefore, the selection of training system may be made according to the vineyard management choices and mechanization possibilities.Acknowledgments: The authors express their gratitude to the Azienda Agricola Vigne di Zam{\`o} at Rosazzo, Manzano (Udine, Italy), for hosting the viticultural and enological research, to Dr. Giorgio Braida for technical assistance, and to Dr. Birgit Holzer, who performed and processed the analytical determinations of phenols in the grapes.}, issn = {0002-9254}, URL = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/53/1/14}, eprint = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/53/1/14.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Enology and Viticulture} }
