The aim of this study is to characterize and differentiate the main physico-chemical parameters, the evolution of the anthocyanin profile and the total polyphenol content of white and red wines obtained from clones of the varieties ˈFeteasca Regalaˈ, ˈMuscat Ottonelˈ, ˈSauvignon Blancˈ, ˈBurgundˈ, ˈCabernet Sauvignonˈ and ˈMerlotˈ. For the production of white wines, the clones ˈFetească Regală 72 Stˈ, ˈMuscat Ottonel 6 Stˈ, ˈSauvignon Blanc Stˈ and 3 other clones for the production of red wines, ˈBurgund 86 Stˈ, ˈMerlot 202 Stˈ and ˈCabernet Sauvignon 3 Stˈ were studied. The results showed that the red wines produced from the ˈBurgund 86 Stˈ, Merlot 202 Stˈ and ˈCabernet Sauvignon 3 Stˈ clones outperformed the standard wines in terms of total anthocyanin and polyphenol content. In all the studied clones, the physico-chemical indicators, the alcohol concentration and the tannins in the wines, recorded higher values than the control varieties.
