Caracterización sensorial preliminar de los vinos tintos de la Isla de Tenerife (Islas Canarias, España)

Abstract

En la isla de Tenerife (Islas Canarias, Espafia) existen cinco Denominaciones de Origen (D.O.) con una superficie inscrita aproximada de 5.000 hectareas. Actualmente existen 94 bodegas inscritas en las diferentes D.O., y de estas, 82 elaboran vino tinto. El 65% de las bodegas que elaboran vino tinto estan situadas en la vertiente norte de la isla sobre tres D.O.: Valle de la Orotava, Tacoronte-Acentejo e Ycoden-Daute-Isora. La variedad de uva mayoritaria que se utiliza en la elaboracion de estos vinos es Listan negro (Vitis vinifera L.). La variabilidad fisica-quimica que presentan estos vinos es muy alta debido a la diferencia existente en las condiciones de suelo y de clima de cada una de las diferentes D.O., y también entre las diversas parcelas de cada D.O. Rasta la fecha no se ha establecido un perfil sensorial de los vinos tintos que permita una mejor caracterizacion de las diferentes D.O., asi como, un mejor conocimiento del comportamiento de la variedad Listan negro en las diferentes condiciones de cultivo. Las caracteristicas sensoriales de los vinos han sido estudiadas a través de un analisis descriptivo cuantitativo (A.D.C.) (9). Esta técnica sensorial ha sido utilizada para caracterizar variedades de uva tinta como Pinot noir (3, 6), Cabernet Sauvignon (4, 7), Shiraz (1), Zinfandel (5). En este trabajo presentamos los resultados del primer afio de estudio.

Effect of power ultrasound treatment on free and glycosidically-bound volatile compounds and the sensorial profile of red wines

AIM Aiming to explore the possibility of shortening red winemaking maceration times (1,2), this study presents the effect of the application of high-power ultrasounds to crushed grapes, at winery-scale, on the content of varietal volatile compounds (free and glycosidically-bound) in musts and on the overall aroma of wines.

Incidences of the climate, the soil and the harvest date on Colombard aromatic potential in Gascony

This experiment tries to characterize the role of soil, climate and harvest date on the composition of grape-derivated thiols, 3-mercapto-hexanol (3MH) and 3-mercapto-hexile acetate (A3MH), in the white wines from Colombard varieties in Gascony (South-West of France). A network of 6 plots has been observed since 1999 on different pedologic units. The plots have common agronomical characteristics, plantation spacing (2,900 to 3,500 vines per ha), plantation aging (1985-1990), strength conferred by rootstock (SO4, RSB), soil management (grass covered 1 by 2) and training system (vertical shoot positionning pruned in single Guyot). Meteorological stations are located near the plots.

Tempranillo in semi-arid tropical climate (Pernambuco-Brazil). Adaptation of some clones and their affinity to different rootstocks

The variety Aragonez (sin. Tempranillo), recently introduced in the San Francisco Valley (9º02′ S; 40º11′ W) has revealed an excellent adaptation, with high potential of quality and yield, even without clonal material.

Biosynthetic evolution of galloilated polyphenols in Tannat grapes during ripening, potential applications of grape thinning

Galloylated flavan-3-ols are a class of polyphenolic compounds present in various plants, including grape seeds. These compounds are formed through the condensation of flavan-3-ols, such as catechins, although the precise mechanism by which gallic acid is incorporated into the molecule remains unclear.

Towards the understanding of wine distillation in the production of brandy de Jerez. Chemical and sensory characterization of two distillation methods: continuous and batch distillation

Brandy de Jerez (BJ) is a spirit drink made exclusively from spirits and wine distillates and is characterized by the use of casks for aging that previously contained Sherries. The quality and sensory complexity of BJ depend on the raw materials and some factors: grape variety, conditions during processing the wine and its distillation, as well as the aging in the cask. Therefore, the original compounds of the grapes from which it comes are of great interest being in most cases the Airén variety. Their relationship with the quality of the musts and the wines obtained from them has been studied (1) and varies each year of harvest depending on the weather conditions (2).
