Evaluation of the ‘Leányka’ (‘Fetească Albă’) white wine grape variety’s qualitative and quantitative parameters in the context of different bud loads

Abstract

Wine is a product of human creativity, culture, and nature, and therefore it is an intriguing subject for scientific research and admiration. Among its many kinds, white wine stands out oenologically because of its diverse flavours, aromatic attributes, and capacity to mature. In this experiment, we established 3 different bud load levels (25%, 50%, and 75%) on the well-known white wine grape variety ‘Fetească Albă’. The sugar content significantly increased in the 50% and 76% groups, whereas there were no significant changes regarding titratable acid content, must quantity, and cluster weight.
