In the following study, total sugar concentrations before and during alcoholic fermentation, as well as ethanol concentrations and pH levels after fermentation, of red and white wine grapes were successfully predicted using Raman spectroscopy. Fluorescing compounds such as anthocyanins and pigmented phenolics found in red wine present one of the primary limitations of enological analysis using Raman spectroscopy. Unlike the spontaneous Raman effect, fluorescence is a highly efficient process and consequently emits a much stronger signal than spontaneous Raman scattering. For this reason, many enological applications of Raman spectroscopy are impractical as the more subtle Raman spectrum of any red wine sample is in large part masked by fluorescing compounds present in the wine. This work employs a simple extraction method to mitigate fluorescence in finished red wines. Ethanol and total sugars (fructose plus glucose) of wines made from red (Cabernet Sauvignon) and white (Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruner Veltliner) varieties were modeled using support vector regression (SVR), partial least squares regression (PLSR) and Ridge regression (RR). The results, which compared the predicted to measured total sugar concentrations before and during fermentation, were excellent (R2SVR = 0.96, R2PLSR = 0.95, R2RR = 0.95, RMSESVR = 1.59, RMSEPLSR = 1.57, RMSERR = 1.57), as were the ethanol and pH predictions for finished wines after phenolic stripping with polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (R2SVR = 0.98, R2PLSR = 0.99, R2RR = 0.99, RMSESVR = 0.23, RMSEPLSR = 0.21, RMSERR = 0.23). The results suggest that Raman spectroscopy is a viable tool for rapid and trustworthy fermentation monitoring.
