Hyperspectral imaging and Raman spectroscopy, nondestructive methods to assess wine grape composition

Abstract

Grape composition is of high interest for producing quality wines. For that, grape analyses are necessary, and they still require sample preparation, whether with classical analyses or with NIR analyses. The aim of the study was to test the ability of two nondestructive analyses, directly on grapes, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and Raman spectroscopy to assess their composition.
For that, 7 grape varieties were analyzed for 2 vintages. Each grape was characterized by its technological ripening (levels of sugars, organic acids and pH) and its phenolic ripeness (total phenolic, total flavonoids, total anthocyanins contents, as well as extractable phenolic, extractable flavonoids, extractable anthocyanins, values obtained from a model wine maceration from skins, and color intensity). Spectra were recorded on 100 and 40 fresh berries per date and variety respectively with hyperspectral imaging and Raman. Raw data underwent different pretreatments (SNV, 1st and 2nd derivative) and PLS-R were then realized in order to provide models to assess grape composition.
The results showed that the 1st derivative data pretreatment generated better models and was then kept for all following analyses. Both methods, Raman spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging, showed good ability to assess technological ripening parameters (sugar and acid contents) as well as phenolic content (TPI, Total Phenolics, Total Anthocyanins, Total Flavonoids and their extractable equivalents) (with globally R² > 0.81). However, it was not possible to reach the color intensity of grapes.
Even if both methods have the potential to assess wine grape quality on 11 important parameters, the quality of the models generated in our study was dependent on the quality parameter, the type of grapes (color) and the method, except for fructose, TSS and Extractable Anthocyanin contents, which were equivalent. Thus, the glucose concentration and the Total Phenolic Index (TPI) were better assessed by Raman spectroscopy, whereas Extractable Phenolics content was better estimated by HSI for both white and red grapes as well as Total  Anthocyanin content. Tartaric acid, Total Flavonoids, Color Intensity and extractable Flavonoids were better assessed by HSI for red grapes but by Raman for white grapes.
The quality of the generated models was yet dependent on the color of grapes and the parameter considered. More data would be necessary to strengthen the models but the proof of concept was successful with this study

Impact of toasting on oak wood aroma: creation of an oak wood aroma wheel

The impact of toasting process to produce aroma from oak wood intrinsic composition is well documented. It is admitted that such complexity contribute to the wine quality after barrel ageing. Despite our knowledge on the molecular identification of aroma impact compounds of oak wood, little research have been carried out, on a sensory level, on the aroma diversity of toasted oak wood.

Effects of post-fermentative cold maceration on chemical and sensory characteristics of Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Montepulciano wines

Astringency sensation decreases slowly during the aging of red wine. Complex reactions of condensation and precipitation of wine polyphenols are involved in this phenomenon. Wine composition and conditions of aging, such as temperature and oxygen availability, strongly influence evolution of the phenol matrix. Recently, a Post-Fermentative cold Maceration (PFM) technique was tested with the aim of accelerating reactions leading to the reduction of astringency and exploiting chemical compounds not extracted from the solid parts of grapes during the previous traditional maceration phase. To this purpose, an innovative maceration system was engineered and used to perform PFM trials on marc derived from vinification of different varieties of red grapes.

OENOLOGICAL AND SUSTAINABILITY POTENTIAL OF WINES PRODUCED FROM DISEASE RESISTANT GRAPE CULTIVARS (PIWI WINES)

The strategy for sustainability in the wine sector of the EU refers to a set of practices and principles that aim to minimize the negative impact of wine production on the environment, social and economic sustainability. Sustainable wine production involves a range of practices that are designed to reduce waste, conserve resources, and promote the well-being of workers and communities.

SENSORY PROPERTIES IMPORTANT TO AUSTRALIAN FINE WINE CONSUMER SEGMENT PERCEPTION OF CHARDONNAY WINE COMPLEXITY AND PREFERENCE

Wine complexity is considered a multidimensional yet equivocal sensory percept. This project uncovered sensory attributes Australian Chardonnay wine consumers associate with Chardonnay wine complexity
and correlations between expert and consumer perceived wine complexity and preference. A
wine consumer test examined 6 Australian Chardonnay wines of three complexity levels designated low (LC1&2), medium (MC1&2), and high (HC1&2) by an expert panel (n = 8) using a benchtop sensory task. Consumers (n = 81) rated their perceived liking using a 9-point hedonic scale; wine complexity with a 5-point scale anchored “low”, “low-medium”, “medium”, “medium-high”, and “high” and lastly, profiled the wines using Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA). Psychographic segmentation with the Fine Wine Instrument
(FWI) generated three segments; Wine Enthusiasts (WE n=29), Aspirants (ASP n=40) and No- Frills (NF n=12).
