Rationalizing The Wine Nucleophilic Competition For Quinone Addition

Abstract

Protecting white wine against early oxidation is a worldwide issue, because the uncontrolled oxidation of wine promotes aromatic loss and color browning which lead to wine unacceptance by consumers. These changes are mainly driven by the consumption of oxygen by polyphenols leading to the production of quinones which are oxidant compounds. Quinones can react with numerous nucleophilic compounds notably aromatic thiols, decreasing the aromatic bouquet of the wine.

The nucleophilic addition reaction of standard compounds on 4 methyl-1,2-benzoquinone (4MeQ) can be monitored over time by mass spectrometry (MS). The addition of GSH on 4MeQ follows an apparent first order kinetic which is easy to monitor and fit with simple mathematical model. The best fit with first order kinetic (adjusted R² > 0.98) enables to estimate GSH-half-life which is related to the effective competition of other compounds present in solution. This model firstly applied on model solution with known concentrations in nucleophilic compounds (amino acids, peptpides), was then used to estimate the nucleophilic activity of inactivated yeast’s soluble fractions to classify these enological additives. The GSH-half-life ranged from 4.6 to 69.3 hours depending on the GSH accumulation process initially involved in the yeast enrichment process. Our results clearly show that the process of glutathione accumulation in yeast favors the co-accumulation of additional nucleophilic compounds, with the most interesting consequence that the GSH itself appears to be preserved. This methodology reveals that the kinetics of reference nucleophiles addition to a quinone, can rationalize the non-GSH fraction contribution to the global nucleophilic properties of complex matrices.

Improvement of sparkling wines production by a zoning approach in Franciacorta (Lombardy, Italy)

Franciacorta is a viticultural area which extends in the hills to the South of Iseo lake in Lombardy. It is particularly famous for the production of sparkling wines obtained mostly from Chardonnay and Pinot blanc and noir grapes. The name of this territory is of medieval origin and appeared for the first time in 1277 as “Franzacurta”, from the Latin “franchae curtes”, i.e. “tax-free” monasteries. It was geographically delimited in 1429, when it was a territory of the Republic of Venezia.

SHIRAZ FLAVONOID EXTRACTABILITY IMPACTED BY HIGH AND EXTREME HIGH TEMPERATURES

Climate change is leading to an increase in average temperature and in the severity and occurrence of heatwaves, and is already disrupting grapevine phenology. In Australia, with the evolution of the weather of grape growing regions that are already warm and hot, berry composition including flavonoids, for which biosynthesis depends on bunch microclimate, are expected to be impacted [1]. These compounds, such as anthocyanins and tannins, contribute substantially to grape and wine quality. The goal of this research was to determine how flavonoid extraction is impacted when bunches are exposed to high (>35 °C) and extreme high (>45 °C) temperatures during berry development and maturity.

Molecular cloning and characterization of UDP-glucose: furaneol glucosyltransferase gene from Japanese

2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone (furaneol) is an important aroma compound in fruits, such as pineapple and strawberry, and is reported to contribute to the strawberry-like note in some wines. Several grapevine species are used in winemaking, and furaneol is one of the characteristic aroma compounds in wines made from American grape (Vitis labrusca) and its hybrid grape, similar to methyl anthranilate. Muscat Bailey A is a hybrid grape variety [V. labrusca (Bailey) x V. vinifera (Muscat Hamburg)], and its wine is one of the most popular in Japan. The inclusion of Muscat Bailey A in the ‘International List of Vine and Varieties and their Synonyms’ managed by the ‘International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV)’ in 2013 has further fueled its popularity among winemakers and researchers worldwide.
