Consumer expectations are increasingly shifting towards “residue-free wines.” However, from an analytical standpoint, “zero” does not exist. Laboratories often use the quantification limits of analysis methods to signify ‘zero.’ Improved techniques now allow for the quantification of levels that were previously undetectable. This is why we prefer to use the term “unquantifiable residue” rather than “absence of residues.”

Wine aroma is a crucial quality criterion. A multitude of volatile compounds have been identified and correlated to the aroma attributes perceived in wine.

Wine grape berries respond to postharvest treatments with specific gaseous elicitors in terms of metabolic changes and composition. Short-term (3 days) high (30 KPa) CO2 treatment affects phenol compound concentration in skins of ‘Trebbiano toscano’ berries.

The main aim of WiSSaTech project (PRIN P2022LXY3A),supported by the Italian Ministero dell’Università e della Ricerca and European Union-NextGenerationEU, is to investigate eco-friendly and safe alternatives to sulphur dioxide (SO2) in wine production.

The increasing demand for healthier, more transparent, and sustainable wine products has prompted the need for innovative solutions to optimize the wine health value chain.
