Territorio e vino tra immagine e comunicazione

This work aimed at investigating red wine olfactory–oral cross-modal interactions, and at testing their impact on the correlations between sensory and chemical variables. Seventy-four Italian red whole wines (WWs) from 10 varieties, and corresponding deodorized wines (DWs), were evaluated by sensory descriptive assessment.

Climate change is modifying environmental conditions in all wine-growing areas of the
world.

Context and Purpose of Study. Grapevine Shiraz disease (SD), which is associated with Grapevine Virus A (GVA), is one of the highly destructive diseases affecting Australian and South African vineyards.

The traceability of agricultural products, including grapes, is essential for ensuring food safety, quality control, and supply chain transparency. This paper investigates the implementation of GS1 standards in enhancing the traceability of grapes from grower to consumer.

Fermentative aromas (especially esters and higher alcohols) highly impact the organoleptic profile of young and white wines. The production of these volatile compounds depends mainly on temperature and Yeast Available Nitrogen (YAN) content in the must. Available dynamic models predict the main reaction
(bioconversion of sugar into ethanol and CO2 production) but none of them considers the production kinetics of fermentative aroma compounds during the process of fermentation. We determined the production kinetics of the main esters and higher alcohols for different values of initial YAN content and temperature, using an innovative online monitoring Gas Chromatography device.
