Oenin is an anthocyanin. It is the 3-glucoside of malvidin. It can be found in the skin of purple grapes[1] and in wine. It is the red pigment in red wine.[2]

Color stabilization of malvidin 3-glucoside at a higher pH can be explained by self-aggregation of the flavylium cation and copigmentation with the Z-chalcone form.[3]
Malvidin 3-glucoside alone is not oxidized in the presence of grape polyphenol oxidase, whereas it is degraded in the presence of a crude grape PPO extract and of caftaric acid forming anthocyanidin-caftaric acid adducts.[4]
