Abstract:
(Z)-6-Dodeceno-γ-lactone is a potent aroma compound that has been little studied and its prevalence in wines is unknown. An efficient stable isotope dilution assay was developed using a simple, direct immersion solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method suitable for routine use with a low ng/L limit of quantitation. Using this method, 99 out of 104 young white wines analysed were found to contain detectable (Z)-6-dodeceno-γ-lactone. The highest concentrations were found in Riesling and Viognier wines. (Z)-6-Dodeceno-γ-lactone was found to have an aroma detection threshold of 700 ng/L in a neutral white wine. This study established that (Z)-6-dodeceno-γ-lactone is widely present in Australia's most popular white wine varieties, but generally at concentrations below its aroma detection threshold.
