The concentration of quercitol increased with aging time and depended on the age and characteristics of the barrels, but not on the grape variety used. For the other cyclitols, aging in oak barrels did not appreciably modify the concentration in each batch. In oak chip-treated wines, quercitol was also present and its concentration was influenced by chip size. Quercitol seems to be a potential new indicator of the contact of wine with oak wood.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
