Characteristics of sangiovese grape variety (Vitis vinifera L.) grown in Tikves̆ vineyards.
Studies were carried out to the variety Sangiovese of manufacturing plants located in the site Lepovo-Tikves vineyards and all of this in property of the Bovin Winery. During the period of study (2011-2012 year) the following items were included: realized yields (kg/vine), chemical composition of grape must (sugar content, total acids, pH) and chemical analysis of wine. The results show considerable variation in yield (coefficient of variation was 18.45) which is due to the age of the crop or it is in the second (2011) and third (2012) year of birth. The must contains 224 g/L sugar and 6.75 g/l total acids average for the test period. The wine has a high content of extract (33 g/L) and alcohol from 12.90 vol% which is due to selective harvesting of grapes and the way of vinification.
