The research was carried out between 2020 and 2022, involving observations and measurements on several local grapevine varieties and biotypes identified in the localities of Săsciori, Loman, Ighiu, Sard, and Alba Iulia in Alba County. The study focused on 12 local grapevine varieties, which were analyzed in comparison with reference varieties representative of the respective areas. Four local varieties were grouped among the white wine grape varieties (Sard I, Ruginiu de Alba, Busuioaca de Ighiu, and Aromat alb) and were compared with the Fetească Regală variety. The other four local varieties were classified in the red wine grape varieties group (Pleoapa, Vechi de Ighiu, Izabela de Ighiu, and Rosu rezistent) and were compared with the Cabernet Sauvignon variety, while four local varieties were classified as table grape varieties (Mare timpuriu, Butuc alb, Precupeasca, and Fraga) and were compared with the Chasselas Doré variety. For this study, data analysis was performed using XLSTAT 2018 software, which provides a comprehensive range of statistical tools for multivariate analysis. The key parameters used for principal component analysis (PCA) included the annual growth of mature wood, the number of inflorescences per vine, yield per vine, bunch weight, berry weight, the number of berries per bunch, and sugar content in the grape must and per vine. A significance level of p < 0.05 was adopted to ensure the statistical significance of the results.
