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.

Reaction Mechanisms of Copper and Iron with Hydrogen Sulfide and Thiols in Model Wine

Fermentation derived sulfidic off-odors due to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and low molecular weight thiols are commonly encountered in wine production and removed by Cu(II) fining. However, the mechanism underlying Cu(II) fining remains poorly understood, and generally results in increased Cu concentration that lead to deleterious reactions in finished wine. The present study describes a mechanistic investigation of the iron and copper mediated reaction of H2S, cysteine, 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol, and 6-sulfanylhexan-1-ol with oxygen. The concentrations of H2S, thiols, oxygen, and acetaldehyde were monitored over time. It was found that Cu(II) was rapidly reduced by both H2S and thiols to Cu(I).

Application to grapevine leaves of different doses of urea at two phenology stage: effect on the aromatic composition of red wine

This research aimed to study the effect and efficiency of foliar application of urea on the aromatic composition of red wines elaborated from Tempranillo grapes.

Statewide relationships between water potentials, gas exchange and δ13c of grape musts in California. Implications for use in precision viticulture

The measurement of carbon isotopic discrimination of musts (δ13C) at harvest is an integrated assessment of water status during ripening of grapevine. It is an alternative to traditional measurements of water status in the field, which is crucial for understanding spatial variability of plant physiology at the vineyard scale, proven useful for delineation of management zones in precision viticulture. The aim of this work was to attune the method for the first time to California conditions across a range of areas and cultivars with different hydric behavior, and to evaluate its efficiency in delineating management zones for selective harvest in commercial vineyards.

Wine ageing: Managing wood contact time.

Barrel ageing is a transformative process that alters a wine’s organoleptic properties and consequently its price. Even though it is considered beneficial mostly for red wines, ageing can also be used for white wines but for shorter time periods. Due to barrel costs, space requirements and the markets’ demands for fast release of each new vintage, new products such as oak chips or shavings have been developed to help minimize the time needed for the extraction of essential wood compounds.

How to develop strategies of adaptation to climate change based on a foresight exercise?

Prospective studies raise a real intellectual interest for those who contribute to them or take cognizance of it. But they are often considered too difficult to operationalize
