One concern regarding the production and marketing of wines is to ensure that the product is not adulterated in relation to the origin and type of grape used in its production. This is due to the high cost involved in production and due to interest of consumers in obtaining legitimate products. In this context, the techniques of data mining allow us to verify the relationship between the chemical properties of wines and their label regarding origin or type of grape. This study presents a method for classification and characterization of wines with the application of data mining to the chemical properties that describe the functionality of wines. Five applications were carried out involving Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Syrah, Tannat and Merlot varieties produced in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay: the classification of Cabernet Sauvignon according to geographic region of production, Brazil and Chile; the classification of Tannat wines from the southern regions of Uruguay and southern Brazil, regions in close proximity and relevant to the production of Tannat wines; the classification of Syrah wines from Argentina and Chile, which are close regions and have a significant production in the countries covered; the classification of Merlot wines associated with the four countries to draw a profile of the relevant variables for the classification of wines for each set of two countries; and the classification of wines of the Chilean Carménère and Merlot varieties, which aim to investigate a profile of discrimination between varieties. The results obtained in all applications are promising, with a high predictive performance of 88%. The combination of variable selection associated with the classifiers Support Vector Machines and Artificial Neural Networks made it possible to define classification models capable of predicting new samples in addition to identifying groups of variables responsible for the classification.
