Effect of the addition of peptidic hydrolysates from grape pomace by-products to red wines in warm regions

Abstract

High temperatures typical of warm climates cause the colour of red wines to become increasingly unstable over time. This is due to the fact that phenolic and technological maturities do not coincide at the time of harvest in these climates, in contrast to colder viniculture zones. As a consequence, the colour of wines decreases after months of storage within bottles or barrels due to copigmentation processes being hampered by a shortage of pigments and copigments.
This study has focused on improving the colour stability of red wines elaborated in warm climates by adding an enzymatic hydrolysate of defatted grape seed meal six months after fermentation of Syrah grapes cultivated in “Condado de Huelva” Designation of Origin (Spain). This defatted meal comes from the industrial processing of grape pomace, contributing to the reuse of this residue as a by-product. Two different types of defatted grape seed meal were used (from red and white grapes), which protein fraction was extracted and further submitted to enzymatic hydrolysis with Alcalase under alkaline conditions. Hydrolysis was carried out at two different times, 1 and 4 h, to obtain peptides of high and low molecular weight, which were added to the wine at two different concentrations: 1 g/L and 3 g/L, in triplicate. Differential tristimulus colorimetry (L*, C*ab, hab, ΔE*ab), copigmentation, molecular weight distribution, and polyphenolic content (HPLC-DAD) were studied in wines every month along six months of time evolution.
The addition of 3 g/L peptides from 1-hour hydrolysis showed a colour stabilization effect on red wines regardless of the grape variety, in the light of the higher values of chroma (C*ab) and copigmentation, even though the total anthocyanin content decreased, which tends to occur naturally during the evolution of any wine. However, the addition of peptides from 4-hour hydrolysis of the red variety, regardless of their concentration, provoked a lightening effect of red wines, evidenced by higher values of L* and lower of C*ab. In contrast, these wines had visually perceptible colour differences (ΔE*ab > 3), mainly qualitative due to the higher values of hue (hab), but sensorially acceptable. In conclusion, the implementation of wines with peptidic hydrolysates from grape seed meal residue could be a promising technique for oenological industry.

Oenological potential of indigenous greek grape varieties and their clones

Vine clone selection aims at the survival of clones with particularly desireable attributes for the production of high quality wines. The purpose of this research was to study the enological potential of the clones of Greek indigenous grape varieties over two vintages, 2018 and 2019.
METHODS: Two clones of the white grape varieties Moschofilero (E26 and E27), Assyrtiko (E11 and 16), Roditis (25E16 and 02E1E21) and two clones of the red grape varieties Xinomavro (19 and E2E30) and Agiorgitiko (03E40 and 41E47) were vinified under the same protocol for the white wines and common for the red wines in 2018 and 2019. The resulting products were studied for several enological parameters such as alcohol content, volatile acidity, pH, total phenolics, anthocyanins and tannins for the red wines, as well as browning tests for the white wines. The aroma profile of these ten samples was investigated through sensory analysis with intensity rating of individual attributes on a five-point scale by a trained panel.

Red wine astringency: correlations between chemical and sensory features

Astringency is a crucial sensory attribute typically described as the drying and/or puckering sensation occurring after the consumption of tannin-rich foods and beverages. In this study, thirty-seven red wines from different varieties, origins and styles were evaluated, analyzing both chemical and sensory features. Principal Component Analysis was used for dimensionality-reduction and for correlating selected chemical parameters against astringency. The results showed that tannin content was the most important chemical parameter influencing overall astringency but more clearly the dryness sub-quality, followed by pH, titratable acidity and alcohol content.

Proteomic profiling of grape berry presenting early loss of mesocarp cell vitality

From fruit set to ripening, the grape berry mesocarp experiences a wide range of dynamic physical, physiological, and biochemical changes, such as mesocarp cell death (MCD) and hydraulic isolation. The premature occurrence of such events is a characteristic of the Niagara Rosada (NR) variety, utilised as table grapes and winemaking. In our opinion, the onset of ripening would not cause MCD, but a down-regulation of respiratory enzymes during the early loss of cell viability, while maintaining membrane integrity. For this, we investigated three distinct developmental stages (green (E-L33), veraison (E-L35), and ripe (E-L39)) of NR berries by label-free proteomics, enzymatic respiratory activity and outer mesocarp imaging. Cell wall-modifying proteins were found to accumulate differently throughout ripening, while cytoplasmic membranes continue intact.

Nitrogen status of vines influences aged wines aromas. Examples of aged Champagne reserve wines and red Bordeaux wines

The sensory definition of the aging bouquet of red Bordeaux wines has been shown to be structured around seven main aromatic nuances: “undergrowth”, “spicy” “truffle”, “fresh red- and black-berry fruits”, “liquorice”, “mint”, and “toasted” (1). Some of these descriptors are also used to describe the aromatic notes of old Champagnes (2) suggesting common volatile compounds between these two types of wine.

Molecular characterization of a variegated grapevine mutant cv Bruce’s Sport

Variegation, a frequently observed trait in plants, is characterized by the occurrence of white or discoloured plant tissue. This phenomenon is attributed to genetic mosaicism or chimerism, potentially impacting the epidermal (L1) and subepidermal (L2) cell layers. In grapevine, variegation manifests as white or paler leaf, flower, or berry tissues, often leading to stunted growth and impeded development. Despite its prevalence, variegation in grapevines remains understudied.
