    Abstract:
    Differences in key odor-active volatile compounds among the head, heart, and tail fractions of freshly distilled spirits from Spine grape (Vitis davidii Foex) wine were identified for the first time by gas chromatography-olfactometry and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results from aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) showed that there were 34, 45, and 37 odor-active compounds in the head, heart and tail fractions, respectively. Besides, 20, 22, and 17 quantified compounds, respectively, showed odor activity values (OAVs) > 1. The head fraction was characterized by fruity, fusel/solvent notes owing to higher concentrations of higher alcohols and esters, while the tail fraction had more intense smoky/animal, sweaty/fatty attributes due to higher concentrations of volatile phenols and fatty acids. Finally, the heart fraction was characterized by ethyl octanoate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl 3-phenylpropanoate, ethyl cinnamate, isoamyl alcohol, guaiacol, 4-ethylguaiacol, 4-vinylguaiacol, 2,3-butanedione, and (E)-β-damascenone. Furthermore, observation of the distillation progress indicated that different volatiles with various boiling points and solubilities followed diverse distillation patterns: concentrations of most esters, higher alcohols, terpenes and C13-norisoprenoids decreased, while concentrations of volatile phenols, fatty acids and some aromatic compounds increased during distillation. As a result, their final concentrations in the three distillate fractions varied significantly.
