Laricitrin is an O-methylated flavonol, a type of flavonoid. It is found in red grape (absent in white grape)^[1] and in Vaccinium uliginosum (bog billberries).^[2] It is one of the phenolic compounds present in wine.^[3]

Metabolism

Laricitrin is formed from myricetin by the action of the enzyme myricetin O-methyltransferase.^[4] It is further methylated by laricitrin 5'-O-methyltransferase into syringetin.
