consumption;-clean, practically free of anyvisible foreign substances and attacks by pestsand diseases; abnormal external moisture-free,odorless and / or taste.Also, the beans should be whole, well formed,normally developed. Grapes must be harvestedcarefully and degree of maturation to thetransport, related operations and to arrive insatisfactory condition at the place ofdestination.Must must have a refractometric index of atleast:-12 º Brix for the Alphonse Lavalle varieties,Cardinal and Victoria;-13 º Brix for other varieties of seeds;-14 º Brix for all seedless varieties.AlphaIn addition, all varieties must report sugar /acidity satisfactory. The standards of theInternational Organization of Vine and Wineon minimum maturity requirements for tablegrapes (VITI Resolution 1/2008) states thatgrapes that have a refractive index (° Brix)equal to or greater than 16 are consideredmature. In contrast, white varieties (and pink)table grape with a refractive index less than 16,you must have a minimum ratio 'sugar (g / l) /acidity (g / l expressed as tartaric acid) '20 / 1to be considered mature. If black varieties oftable grape with a refractive index of between12.5 and 16 must have a report 'sugar / acidity'of at least 20/1, to be considered mature.Grapes that have those values less than 12 arenot considered mature. Minimum requirementsdetermined by the weight calibration tablegrape varieties large and small grains grown inthe field (or in greenhouses) are presented inTable 5.Table 5.
