The antioxidant activity of Xinomavro red wine phenolic extracts in corn oil stripped of tocopherols was evaluated. One wine extract, at 100 mg/L total phenolics, rich in phenolic acids and flavonols, inhibited the oxidation of corn oil stripped of tocopherols to a greater extent than butylated hydroxyanisole, at 200 mg/L. Moreover, another extract, at 100 mg/L total phenolics, rich in flavanols, flavonols and tyrosol, also exhibited high inhibitory action. The present results indicate that some red wine phenolics - such as phenolic acids, flavonols or flavanols - may be strong antioxidants in corn oil.
