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.

How the physical components of the terroir can differently intervene in French wines DPO definitions.Example of Côte de Nuits in Burgundy

European regulations describe what elements must be given in the specifications of DPO determination ; mainly production conditions, links between quality and products characteristics and the physical traits of the production area. These elements are given in the “link to terroir” paragraph relating natural and human factors, detailed product characteristics linked to the geographical area and at last interactions between product originality and the geographical area.

Scientific research for an «Ad Maiora 4.1C» application «A step back towards the future universally sustainable EME4.1C». A concrete example of forward-looking and revolutionary entrepreneurial choices in the vine and wine sector

In 1979 an enlightened and farsighted business owner in an area and in an activity unknown to him and in 120 hectares of land cultivated with corn and wheat expressed to one of us that he wanted to start a business in the wine sector. The first innovative “Vigna Dogarina Scientific Applicative Project” has become famous and harmoniously inserted in and with the “Territoir” of eastern Veneto in northeastern Italy. The revolutionary project allowed one of us: 1. to put into practice results of research related to the applied philosophy, vision, methodology of the “Great MetaEthic Chain 4.1C®” algorithm of the “Conegliano Campus 5.1C®” that considers all material, immaterial, spiritual, technical, economic, environmental, social, existential, relational, ethical, MetaEthical factors with basic indexing in a harmonious chain “ 4.1C®” and application “5.1C®”, 2. to implement:
