In response to this, we determined the anthocyanin and tannin level of selected vines within the vineyard to produce parcels of fruit for winemaking that had low-low, low-high, high-low and high-high combinations of anthocyanins and tannin. Here we report the anthocyanin and tannin content of the grape berries used to make wine and the effect of the different combinations of anthocyanin and tannin on wine colour and hue as well as polymeric pigment, wine tannin and anthocyanin concentrations over three years of wine aging.
