The increase in demand for raw materials for the industrialization of grape juices leads to the need for implementation and modernization of the vineyards, in addition to the development of cultivars that have short and long cycles to extend the harvest period, and that improve the color quality, aroma and flavor of the drinks (Mota et al., 2018). Miotto et al., (2014) studied 12 different genotypes of 'Bordô' from a clonal selection program of the Minas Gerais Agricultural Research Institute (EPAMIG) in the municipality of Caldas-MG, with the objective of evaluating production and quality of fruits in subtropical wine-growing areas. Considering that the adaptation of the fruits to the requirements of the industry to obtain a quality juice (color, flavor and aroma) is an essential factor for the selection of a genotype, being necessary to complement the information obtained in the field. [...]the objective of this study was to evaluate the components of grape productivity, aspects of physical, chemical and sensory attributs of juices made with 11 different genotypes of the 'Bordô' cultivar produced in the Vale do Rio Peixe region. Production data (kg/plant) was determined with an electronic field scale and productivity estimate (t ha-1) was based on planting density (1,666 plants ha-1) and the number of clusters per plant were obtained at harvest time.
