Malvidin is an O-methylated anthocyanidin, the 3′,5′-methoxy derivative of delphinidin responsible for the blue-red color found in flowers and fruits. Its distribution covers a wide group of sources, such as flowers (edible and nonedible), medicinal plants, and fruits. It is the main substance responsible for the color of red grapes and red wine, being Vitis vinifera one of its main sources. Its consumption is important as it has been associated with important biological effects, such as anti-inflammatory activity, powerful antioxidant activity, and anticancer activity. Against this background, this chapter presents a general overview of malvidin’s main sources, biosynthesis pathway and biotransformation properties, physicochemical properties and stability, and aspects of its absorption, metabolism, and excretion. Additionally, we summarize recent studies using in vitro and in vivo models related to its various biological properties. In conclusion, this chapter aims to provide as detailed a picture as possible of the potential of malvidin in human health, as well as its main sources, chemical characteristics, and biotransformation.
