12

Some botrytized wines with “protected designation of origin” have a high market price, thus

13

they are prone to adulteration with cheaper alternatives. This work presents the use of

14

fluorescence spectroscopy combined with chemometrics as a relatively fast and inexpensive

15

tool to discriminate botrytized wines according to two classification criteria: (1)

16

distinguishing between botrytized wines of different quality, namely four-, five-, and six butt

17

wines, and essence; and (2) distinguishing between unadulterated and adulterated samples.

18

Various emission and synchronous fluorescence spectra were recorded and compressed by

19

principal component analysis (PCA) and then linear discriminant analysis (LDA) was

20

performed. The best PCA-LDA results (the percentage of correct classification for each wine

21

category in the prediction step) were obtained with fluorescence spectra recorded on raw

22

samples. Regarding wines of different quality, four- and five butt wines as well as essences

23

were 100% correctly classified, while six butt wine samples were 80% correctly classified

24

using emission spectra excited at 390 or 460 nm as well as synchronous fluorescence spectra

25

recorded at wavelength difference of 100 nm. Regarding unadulterated and adulterated

26

samples, the percentages of correct classification were 60, 80, 80 and 100% for four-, five-,

27

and six butt wines and essence, respectively, while adulterated samples were 100% correctly

28

classified, in all cases, using synchronous fluorescence spectra recorded at wavelength

29

difference of 100 nm.

1. Introduction

36

Wine labeling commonly provides information on the grape variety and geographical

38

designation, and the vintage or age, which frequently determined price. In Europe, some

39

wines belonging to the “protected designation of origin” (PDO) category have a high market

40

price and they are consequently prone to adulteration with cheaper alternatives. Tokajský

41

výber and Tokajská esencia are examples of PDOs (Commission Regulation (EU) No

42

401/2010). These wines are produced from grapes infected by Botrytis cinerea (noble rot)

43

(Jackson, 2014) in Slovakia, and therefore belong to the botrytized wines. Tokajský výber is

44

produced by alcoholic fermentation after pouring of cibebas with must having sugar contents

45

of at least 21° NM from the defined vineyard of “vinohradnícka oblasť Tokaj”. According to

46

the amount of added cibebas, the Tokajský výber shall be divided into three-, four-, five- and

47

six putňový (butt number). This quality is written on the label of the bottle: the more the butts,

48

the better the quality, and the higher the price. Much more expensive is esencia (essence)

49

because it is made only from separately selected cibebas by slow fermentation of wine. The

50

essence shall contain at least 450 g/l of natural sugar and 50 g/l of sugar-free extract. Both

51

Tokajská výber and esencia shall mature at least three years, of that at least two years in

52

wooden cask (Commission Regulation (EU) No 401/2010). In Hungary, similar three to six

53

puttonyos Aszú and Eszencia are produced. It is exclusively white grape varieties that are

54

used in the wine-growing area of Tokaj, with Furmint belonging to Vitis vinifera convar

55

Pontica being the most important one. It is grown widely to produce both botrytized and non-

56

botrytized wines. An example of the latter is varietal Furmint wine, produced by alcohol

57

fermentation of the Furmint grape variety.

58

In general, compositional profiles of wines regarding amino and/or polyphenolic species can

59

be correlated with factors such as grape varieties, geographical origins, organoleptic

60

properties and winemaking practices (Arvanitoyannis, Katsota, Psarra, Soufleros, &

61

Kallithraka, 1999; Saurina, 2010; Versari, Laurie, Ricci, Laghi, & Parpinello, 2014; Villano et

62

al., 2017). The specificity of amine composition, which depends on infection with Botrytis

63

cinerea and the wine-making technology, provided the basis for discrimination of Aszú wines

64

from Hungarian non-botrytized wines and botrytized wines of other geographic origin (Kiss,

65

& Sass-Kiss, 2005). Although botrytized wines are popular products, there is very little

66

information available on the differentiation of them according to the butt number and the

67

chemometric evaluation of the data is omitted. The effect of the number of butts on the

68

biogenic amine content in Aszú wines of the 1993 and 1998 vintages was studied. For the

AC C

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT young Aszú wines (1998 vintage), there were differences in the putrescine, cadaverine, and

70

phenylethylamine content between the three- and four butt Aszú wines, while spermidine

71

content showed significant differences in all the three-, four-, and five butt Aszú wines

72

(Hajós, Sass-Kiss, Szerdahelyi, & Bardocz, 2000; Sass-Kiss, Szerdahelyi, & Hajós, 2000).

73

Although there were differences in the histamine, putrescine, and spermidine content between

74

the five- and six butt Aszú wines, Csomós, and Simon-Sarkadi (2002) concluded that the free

75

amino acid and biogenic amine content of Aszú wines depended on the vineyards the wines

76

originated from and not on the number of butts. As a consequence of the action of Botrytis

77

cinerea, botrytized grapes of Furmint variety contained more amine compounds than normal

78

grapes, with predominating spermidine. Also, the biogenic amine content of botrytized wines

79

was higher than that of non-botrytized varietal Furmint wines, phenylethylamine was the most

80

abundant amine (Hajós et al., 2000; Sass-Kiss et al., 2000).

81

Five butt Aszú wines from vintages between 1999 and 1993 showed decreased amounts of

82

polyphenols and also antioxidative activity due to much longer aging period in which more

83

oxidative degradation could have occurred. Consequently, lower amounts of polyphenols and

84

antioxidative activity were determined for six butt Aszú wine from 1981 season (Pour

85

Nikfardjam, László, & Dietrich, 2003; Pour Nikfardjam, László, & Dietrich, 2006). The five

86

and six butt Aszú wines as well as Furmint wines contained gallic, protocatechuic, caftaric,

87

and coutaric acids as well as catechin in the mg/L range, higher total polyphenol content and

88

antioxidative activity were observed for butt Aszú wines than Furmint wines (Pour

89

Nikfardjam et al., 2003). Recently amount of polyphenols and the antioxidant activity were

90

compared for three-, four-, five-, and six butt wines and Furmint wines; the highest

91

antioxidant activity and also amount of polyphenols were observed in six butt wine. However,

92

there was no information on vintage year (Ballová, Eftimová, Kurhajec, & Eftimová, 2016).

93

High resolution 1H NMR spectroscopy showed the very similar relative integral intensities

94

for four-, five-, and six butt wines as well as essence of 1999 and 2000 vintages,

95

corresponding to the phenolic compounds (Mazur, Husáriková, Kaliňák, & Valko, 2015).

96

Authors concluded that the 1H NMR spectra can be utilized as the unique “fingerprints” of

97

the Slovak Tokaj wines.

98

The combination of instrumental techniques with multivariate statistics have allowed the

99

successful classification of wines according to grape varieties, geographical origin, and

100

certain aspects of the winemaking process (Arvanitoyannis et al., 1999; Saurina, 2010;

101

Versari et al., 2014; Villano et al., 2017). However, the use of fluorescence spectroscopy for

102

such purposes has been scarcely explored. Interestingly, an attention was mainly focused on

Serra, 2006; Saad, Bouveresse, Locquet, & Rutledge, 2016; Tan et al., 2016; Yin, Li, Ding, &

Wang, 2009). Only recently, three varieties of white wine (Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc,

107

and Torrontés) were distinguished using discriminant analysis by unfolded partial least

108

squares or successive projection algorithm, based on excitation-emission matrices (EEMs)

109

(Azcarate et al., 2015). Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) of EEMs of white Chardonnay

110

wines indicated that sulfur dioxide treatment of a must subsequently influenced mainly the

111

first two PARAFAC components. Distinct component combinations revealed either SO2

112

dependent or vintage-dependent signatures (Coelho et al., 2015). Thirteen white wines were

113

differentiated by using a sensor array based on fluorescence quenching of two oppositely

114

charged poly(p-phenyleneethynylene)s and their complexes; the colored tannins and other

115

polyphenols were the main quenchers (Han, Bender, Seehafer, & Bunz, 2016). No record has

116

been found in the literature on application of fluorescence spectroscopy for the discrimination

117

of botrytized wines.

118

In view of the mentioned above, the main objective of this study was to assess for the first

119

time the potential of fluorescence spectroscopy using multivariate statistical methods to

120

discriminate selected botrytized wines. Two classification criteria were evaluated: (1)

121

distinguishing between wines of different quality, namely four-, five-, and six butt wines, and

122

essence; and (2) distinguishing between unadulterated and adulterated samples.

130

region (vintages 2000 − 2015). The content of residual natural sugar and of sugar free extract

131

(Table 1) was determined according to the Commission Regulation No. 2676/90 (European

132

Economic Community (EEC) 1990). Tokaj wine Furmint was chosen as adulterant since it

133

represents about 70% of the cultivars used in Tokaj (Pour Nikfardjam et al., 2003). Samples

134

were stored at 4 °C, and equilibrated at 20 °C before measurement. Fluorescence spectra were

For discrimination between wine categories, the total population of samples was divided

140

randomly and proportionally to wine category into a calibration set (consisting of two thirds

141

of the samples selected from each category) and a prediction set (consisting of the remaining

142

one third of the samples). The calibration and prediction set thus, contained forty (four butt

143

wine, n = 10; five butt wine, n = 10; six butt wine, n = 10; essence, n = 10) and twenty (5

144

samples of each category) samples, respectively. Undiluted and diluted (0.2% w/w in water)

145

wine samples were used. Water was purified by a Milli-Q system (Millipore, USA).

146

For discrimination between unadulterated and adulterated samples, the calibration and

147

prediction sets were prepared individually for each wine category. Undiluted wine samples

148

were used. The calibration set contained the same samples used as calibration set for

149

discrimination between wine categories plus a group of ten mixtures of, e.g., four butt wines

150

containing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10% (w/w) of Furmint. The mixtures were prepared as

151

follows: each sample of, e.g., four butt wine was used for preparing one mixture. The

152

prediction set contained the same samples used as prediction set for discrimination between

153

wine categories plus a group of five mixtures of, e.g., four butt wines containing 2.5, 4.5, 6.5,

154

8.5, and 9.5% (w/w) of Furmint. Again, each sample of, e.g., four butt wine was used for

Fluorescence spectra were obtained using the Perkin-Elmer LS 50 Luminescence

Spectrometer equipped with the Xenon lamp. Samples were placed in a conventional

161

10 × 10 × 45 mm quartz cell. The widths of both the excitation slit and emission slit were set

162

at 5 nm. The acquisition interval and integration time were set at 1 nm and 0.1 s, respectively.

163

Scan speed was 200 nm·min-1. FL Data Manager Software (Perkin-Elmer, USA) was used for

164

spectral acquisition and data processing. Fluorescence measurements were done in triplicate

165

for each sample.

166

Total luminescence spectra of the bulk (diluted) wine samples were obtained by recording of

167

the emission spectra in the 250−600 nm (250−500 nm) range at excitation wavelengths in the

168

250−500 nm (250−350 nm) range, spaced by 10 nm intervals in the excitation domain. This

means that twenty-six and eleven emission spectra were recorded for each bulk and diluted

sample, respectively. Fully corrected emission spectra were then concatenated into the

Synchronous fluorescence spectra were obtained by simultaneously scanning the excitation

Data analysis was performed with the Microsoft Office Excel 2016 software (Microsoft

188

Office, USA) and STATISTICA, version 12.0 (StatSoft, USA). The parts of the spectra

189

including the scatter and noise were discarded before applying classification analysis. A

190

mean-centering preprocessing was applied to the spectra.

191

Principal Component Analysis-Linear Discriminant Analysis (PCA-LDA) was used as

192

classification method. PCA reduces the data dimensionality by explaining the most relevant

193

part of the information present in the original data using synthetic factors, called principal

194

components (PCs). The number of PCs is based on the eigenvalue criterion and the total

195

variance explained. The loading plot shows the variables mainly contributing to each of the

196

principal components. The values that represent the samples in the space defined by the PCs

197

are the component scores, which can be used as input to LDA, instead of the original

198

variables. This is because LDA requires that the number of variables (wavelengths) should

199

not exceed the number of samples in each group. LDA is concerned with determining the so-

200

called discriminant functions, which maximize the ratio of between-class variance and

201

minimize the ratio of within-class variance (Berrueta, Alonso-Salces, & Héberger, 2007). The

202

variables mainly contributing to the discrimination were selected by the F test of Wilks'

203

lambda to conduct stepwise discriminant analysis and consequently calculate a discriminant

equation.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT The performance of the calibration models was evaluated using the leave-one-out-cross-

206

validation approach in which the calibration set, itself, was used to validate the model. The

207

model was repeatedly refit leaving out a single sample and then used to derive a prediction for

208

the left-out sample (Arlot, & Celisse, 2010). Leave-one-out-cross-validation was used

209

because it is the best alternative for small sample sizes of fewer than 50 cases (Molinaro,

210

Simon, & Pfeiffer, 2005).

211

The performance of the model was estimated by calculating the percentage of samples that

212

were classified correctly in the calibration, cross-validation, and prediction steps. This was

213

obtained as the percentage of correct classification for each wine category, or as the number

214

of total correct classifications (independently of the category) divided by the total number of

215

samples, presented as a percentage. 100% is the best a model can achieve.

3.1. Spectra

220

The total luminescence spectra of undiluted wine samples (Fig. 1A-D) show two relatively

222

intense bands, one with excitation maximum at about 400 nm and emission maximum at

223

about 480–490 nm and the second with excitation maximum at about 450–460 and emission

224

maximum at about 530–540 nm. The exact positions of the maxima vary slightly between

225

various wines, which may result from differences in the composition. The first band is close

226

to the excitation and emission profiles of the first PARAFAC component recently calculated

227

for cava sparkling wines (Elcoroaristizabal et al., 2016). The second band has yet been

228

reported for brandy samples, corresponding to the first PARAFAC component (Markechová,

229

Májek, Kleinová, & Sádecká, 2014) as well as for cava sparkling wines, corresponding to the

230

third PARAFAC component (Elcoroaristizabal et al., 2016). High correlation between the

231

third PARAFAC component (465/530 nm) and the commonly used non-enzymatic browning

232

indicators was observed. This component could also be related to vitamin B2 or riboflavin

233

(Christensen, Nørgaard, Bro, & Engelsen, 2006; Elcoroaristizabal et al., 2016).

234

Undiluted wine samples exhibited a high UV/VIS absorption from 4 to 0.1 absorbance units

235

when scanning from 200 to 700 nm (Fig. S1), thus the fluorescence was affected by the inner

236

filter phenomena − an apparent decrease in fluorescence intensity and/or a distortion of band

237

shape as a result of the absorption of excitation and/or emitted light by the sample matrix or

238

the fluorophore itself (Miller, 1981; Christensen et al., 2006). The highest UV/VIS absorption

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT and consequently the highest inner filter effects were observed for six butt wine. One way to

240

overcome these phenomena is to use concentrations that result in absorbance values of 0.1 or

241

lower, simply to dilute the sample with an appropriate solvent. Bulk samples were diluted

242

with water because fluorescence of diluted samples was high enough to record spectra. In

243

addition, water was without fluorescent interferences. On the other hand, the fluorescence

244

spectra of the purest grade of available ethanol or ethanol:water mixture showed little

245

fluorescence at the used wavelength ranges. Moreover, differences in the fluorescence spectra

246

for different ethanol-water ratios were observed (Liu, Luo, Shen, Lu, & Ni, 2006). Upon

247

dilution with water, the total luminescence spectrum of the wine was gradually varied.

248

Different bands behaved differently for various dilutions until the wine was diluted to 0.2%

249

w/w. From this level the shape of fluorescence spectrum stabilized (Fig. S1) and fluorescence

250

intensity depended linearly on the dilution (Table 2).

253

The total luminescence spectra of diluted wine samples (0.2% w/w in water) (Fig. 1E-H)

255

exhibit an intense band at around 270–280/350 nm and a weak one at 300−320/430−450 nm

256

in excitation/emission. Some phenolic acids and monomeric catechins present fluorescent

257

characteristics, that could be related with band at around 270–280/350 nm (Airado-Rodríguez

258

et al., 2011; Azcarate et al., 2015; Bravo, Silva, Coelho, Vilas Boas, & Bronze, 2006). Indeed,

259

the five and six butt Aszú wines showed high contents (in the mg/L range) of gallic,

260

protocatechuic, caftaric, and coutaric acids as well as catechin (Pour Nikfardjam et al., 2003).

261

The corresponding excitation/emission wavelength pairs found in the literature are 278/360,

262

270/358, 280/320, 280/320, and 278/360 nm, respectively (Airado-Rodríguez et al., 2011;

263

Bravo et al., 2006). Other phenolic acids like gentisic acid and p-coumaric acid characterized

264

by excitation/emission wavelength pairs 318/442 and 302/420 nm (Stallings, & Schulman,

265

1975; Putschögl, Zirak, & Penzkofer, 2008), respectively, can contribute to a weak

266

fluorescence of wines at 300−320/430−450 nm in excitation/emission. Gentisic acid was the

267

major hydroxybenzoic acid constituent in Chardonnay, Semillon and Italian Riesling white

268

wines (Ma et al., 2014), while p-coumaric acid was found in Aszú wines (Pour Nikfardjam et

269

al., 2003), both of which were in the mg/L range. Besides phenolic acids, wines contain many

270

other fluorescent compounds (e.g., phenolic aldehydes, trans-stilbenes, flavonoids, tyrosol,

271

vitamins and proteins), thus it is quite obvious that each spectral band of wine corresponds to

272

a related group of fluorescent compounds, and not necessarily to a single fluorophore.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Total synchronous fluorescence spectra (Fig. 1I-P) are presented for the same undiluted as

274

well as diluted wine samples, to enable comparison with the total luminescence spectra.

275

Regarding undiluted wine samples, two characteristic maxima can be seen in total

276

synchronous spectra (Fig. 1I-L), one at the excitation wavelength of 400 nm with the ∆λ at

277

80−90 nm, corresponding to the band at 400/480–490 nm in total luminescence spectra, and

278

the other at the excitation wavelength range of 450−460 nm with the ∆λ at 70−90 nm,

279

corresponding to the band at 450−460/530−540 nm in total luminescence spectra. Total

280

synchronous spectra recorded on the diluted wine samples (Fig. 1M-P) again show two

281

characteristic maxima, one at the excitation wavelength range of 270−280 nm (∆λ at 70−80

282

nm), and the other at the excitation wavelength range of 300−320 nm (∆λ > 100 nm),

283

corresponding to total luminescence bands at 270–280/350 nm and 300−320/430−450 nm,

284

respectively.

285

It is clear that the spectra of the Tokaj wines (Fig. 1) are quite similar and difficult to

286

distinguish by visual inspection. Therefore, chemometric method such as PCA and LDA were

used.

based on wine category. In general, no clear grouping was observed in the PCA score plots.

295

Thus, LDA was applied to the first PCs of the PCA performed on the spectra. The number of

296

PCs was based on the eigenvalue criterion, the total variance explained, and the percentage of

297

correct classification of cross-validation in LDA. The results of PCA obtained for the best

298

experimental conditions, as discussed below, are shown in Fig. 2. The most relevant

Firstly, the PCA was carried out on the emission spectra. Regarding undiluted samples, good

305

total classification was achieved using the first three PCs (account for more than 99.6% of the

10

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT total variance) of the PCA performed on the emission spectra recorded at the excitation

307

wavelengths 370, 390, 400, and 460 nm in the range of 380−600, 400−600, 415−600 and

308

470−600 nm, respectively. The percentage of total correct classification was > 90% in

309

calibration, cross-validation and prediction for all selected excitation wavelengths (Fig. 3A).

310

Using the first three PCs corresponding to the excitation wavelength 390 nm or 460 nm (Fig.

311

2A, B), the best classification was obtained (97.5%, calibration; 95% cross-validation, 95%

312

prediction, Fig. 3A). Four and five butt wines as well as essences were classified correctly in

313

all cases. On the other hand, some of six butt wines were classified as belonging to essence

314

group. The emission wavelengths that largest contributed to the discrimination were around

315

470 and 530 nm (Fig. 2A, B).

316

Regarding diluted samples, total correct classification > 75% was achieved using the first

317

three PCs (account for more than 99.5% of the total variance) of the PCA carried out on the

318

emission spectra recorded at the excitation wavelengths 270, 280, 290, and 300 nm in the

319

range of 280−500, 290−500, 300−500, and 340−500 nm, respectively (Fig. 3B). For these

320

four spectral regions, the percentage of correct classification increased with increasing

321

excitation wavelength, thus, using the first three PCs corresponding to the excitation

322

wavelength 300 nm (Fig. 2C), the best total classification (100%, calibration; 100% cross-

323

validation, 90% prediction, Fig. 3B) was achieved. Six butt wines and essences were

324

classified correctly in all cases. However, some of four butt wines were classified as

325

belonging to five butt wines group, and vice versa.

326

Secondly, the PCA was applied to the synchronous fluorescence data sets. Similarly, to the

327

emission data sets, no meaningful grouping was observed in the PCA score plots, and

328

therefore, LDA was applied to the first PCs. The percentages of correct classification of PCA-

329

LDA models corresponding to different ∆λ values are shown in Fig. 3C, D.

330

For undiluted samples, the PCA-LDA models were calculated on synchronous fluorescence

331

spectra in the range of 250−500 nm. Using the first five PCs (> 99.8% captured variance) of

332

the PCA performed on the synchronous fluorescence spectra recorded at ∆λ = 20, 40, 60, and

333

80 nm, total correct classification oscillated around 66% (Fig. 3C). Interestingly, essence

334

samples were classified correctly in all calibration, cross-validation and prediction steps,

335

regardless of ∆λ value. On the other hand, the best total classification (97.5%, calibration;

336

95% cross-validation, 95% prediction, Fig. 3C) was obtained using the first five PCs of the

337

PCA calculated on the synchronous fluorescence spectra recorded at ∆λ = 100 nm (Fig. 2D).

343

Regarding diluted samples, the PCA-LDA models were calculated in the range of 250−350

347

correctly in all calibration, cross-validation and prediction steps, regardless of ∆λ value, with

348

exception of ∆λ = 60 nm for six butt wines. The first three PCs corresponding to ∆λ = 80 or

351

all cases. However, some of four butt wines were classified as belonging to five butt wines

Under optimal experimental conditions, PCA-LDA models from the diluted or undiluted

359

samples gave similar results, slightly better for undiluted four- and five butt wines compared

360

to diluted, but slightly worse for undiluted six butt wines compared to diluted. Similarly, the

361

synchronous fluorescence spectra of undiluted beer samples appeared to be more appropriate

362

than those of diluted beers, but some of beers were better classified using diluted samples

363

(Sikorska, Górecki, Khmelinskii, Sikorski, & De Keukeleire, 2004). Comparison of results for

364

undiluted and diluted samples is not straightforward. The complex fluorescence pattern for

365

undiluted sample results from its fluorescence characteristics as well as its absorbing, inner

366

filter and quenching abilities, thus several phenomena can influence classification results. The

367

dilution decreases the concentration of fluorophores at the level to be approximately linearly

368

related to the fluorescence intensity, changes interactions of the matrix as well as decreases

369

373

Synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy shows important advantages over conventional

375

fluorescence spectroscopy, such as spectral simplification, decreased light-scattering

376

interference, and selectivity improvement. It detects multiple fluorophores with a much

377

smaller number of excitation and emission wavelengths, thus reducing data acquisition and

378

processing times. Therefore, this method was used to discriminate adulterated samples.

379

Fig. 4 shows total synchronous fluorescence spectrum of Furmint wine, which was used as

380

adulterant, characterized by two maxima at the excitation wavelength of 390 nm (∆λ = 70

381

nm) and 453 nm (∆λ = 60 nm). The maxima were observed at lower values of ∆λ as

382

compared to any of the butt wines or essences. Based on the Fig. 1I-L and Fig. 4, synchronous

383

fluorescence spectra of the mixtures were collected in the 350–500 nm range, using ∆λ = 20,

384

40, 60, 80, and 100 nm. PCA-LDA applied separately to the data acquired at each of ∆λ

385

resulted in the percentages of correct classification given in Fig. 5. The results of PCA

percentages of correct classification were 100, 60 and 80% for adulterated, unadulterated and

The discrimination of five butt and adulterated wines was better at ∆λ = 60 or 100 nm, rather

408

essence samples as well as for the adulterated ones (Fig. 5D). Based on the loadings plots

409

(Fig. 6A-D), the most discriminating excitation wavelengths were around 390 and 460 nm for

410

all the mixtures.

411

The discrimination of adulterated samples (mixtures) was 100% and independent of the

percentage of adulteration for five butt wines and essence, irrespective of ∆λ, for six butt

413

wines, using ∆λ = 40−100 nm as well as for four butt wine, using ∆λ = 100 nm. In other cases

414

(six butt wine, ∆λ = 20 nm; four butt wine, ∆λ = 20−80 nm), the mixtures not correctly

415

discriminated corresponded to those that have lower adulteration rates − 1 and 2% w/w in

416

cross-validation and 2.5% w/w in prediction (Table S1).

417

Compared

418

unadulterated and adulterated samples (identification of adulterated samples) required fewer

PCs and was less dependent on ∆λ value. Explanation can be such that four-, five-, and six

420

butt wines and essence spectra resemble each other more than any of them resembles Furmint

421

wine spectrum, and this is true regardless of ∆λ (Fig. S4). Since essence and six butt wine

422

differ from Furmint wine much more than four- and five butt wine, better classification was

obtained for unadulterated six butt wine and essence.

The results showed that the fluorescence spectroscopy can be a very powerful method for

428

distinguishing groups of samples that have very similar spectral characteristic such as Tokaj

429

wine categories or their adulterated samples. The best PCA-LDA models were based on the

430

fluorescence spectra recorded on undiluted (raw) samples. Regarding Tokaj wine categories,

431

the best PCA-LDA models (excitation wavelength, 390 or 460 nm; ∆λ = 100 nm) produced a

432

total correct classification of 95% in prediction step. Four- and five butt wines as well as

433

essences were 100% correctly classified, while six butt wines were 80% correctly classified.

434

Notice that better discrimination between six butt wines and essences was achieved for

435

diluted samples, however, at the expense of decreasing the correct classification of four- and

436

five butt wines. For discrimination between unadulterated and adulterated samples, the

percentages of correct classifications were 60, 80, 80 and 100% for four-, five-, six butt wines

However, considering the relatively low number of samples and the similarities between them

441

due to climatic, soil and technological characteristics, caution is recommended in the use of

442

the PCA-LDA models to predict new samples in routine analysis until further work involving
