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.

WINE CONSUMER TRADE-OFF BETWEEN ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS AND SUSTAINABLE CLAIMS. AN EXPERIMENT ON RED WINES FROM BORDEAUX REGION

In economics, the perception of wine quality is not limited to sensorial characteristics: an indication of the region of production significantly affects the perception of quality and consumers’ WTP ([1]; [2]). However, [3] or more recently [4] show that even if a wine has an organic label, the taste of wine remains the predominant criterion in consumer preferences. The contribution of our experiment is to evaluate the impact of responsible attributes (organic label, Non Added Sulfites, HVE certification) on the appreciation of several red wines on the market. More than 280 consumers participated to the present study and they perform 25 tastings divided into 5 different sessions. 20 different red wines from Bordeaux Area are tasted.

Water relations of woody perennial plant species

Field irrigation experiments were performed on young « Nonpareil » almond trees, mature « Bartlett » pear trees and mature « Pinot Noir » grapevines, to determine the relation of a number of alternative measures of plant water status (predawn and midday stem and leaf water potential), to a number of indices of plant physiological activity (leaf conductance, vegetative growth and fruit growth and composition).

Mechanisms involved in the heating of the environment by the aerodynamic action of a wind machine to protect a vineyard against spring frost

One of the main consequences of global warming is the rise of the mean temperature. Thus, the heat summation by the plants begins sooner in the early spring, and by cumulating growing degree-days, phenological development tends to happen earlier. However, spring frost is still a recurrent phenomenon causing serious damages to buds and therefore, threatening the harvests of the winegrowers. The wind machine is a solution to protect fruit crops against spring frost that is increasingly used. It is composed of a 10-m mast with a blowing fan at its peak. By tapping into the strength of the nocturnal thermal inversion, it sweeps the crop by propelling warm air above to the ground. Thus, stratification is momentarily suppressed. Furthermore, the continuous action of the machine, alone or in synergy, or the addition of a heater allow the bud to be bathed in a warmer environment. Also, the punctual action of the tower’s warm gust reaches the bud directly at each rotation period. All these actions allow the bud to continuously warm up, but with different intensities and over a different period. Although there is evidence of the effectiveness of the wind machines, the thermal transfers involved in those mechanisms raise questions about their true nature. Field measurements based on ultrasonic anemometers and fast responding thermocouples complemented by laboratory measurements on a reduced scale model allow to characterize both the airflow produced by the wind machine and the local temperature in its vicinity. Those experiments were realized in the vineyard of Quincy, in the framework of the SICTAG project. In the future paper, we will detail the aeraulic characterization of the wind machine and the thermal effects resulting from it and we will focus on how the wind machine warms up the local atmosphere and enables to reduce the freezing risk.

Impact of oenological tannins on microvinifications affected by downy mildew

AIM: Vine diseases are still responsible for economic losses. Previous study in our laboratory, have shown effects of oenological tannins against Botrytis cinerea1,2. According to this, the aim was to evaluate the wine protection by oenological tannins against an another disease, the downy mildew. METHODS: During the 2020 vintage, infected grapes by downy mildew (Vitis vinifera cv. Merlot) were collected from the dispositive ResIntBio. The 100 kg were crushed, destemmed and dispatch into 10 aluminium tanks. SO2 was added at 3 g/hL. Oenological tannins (grape, quebracho, ellagitannin or gallotannin) were added at 100 g/hL into eight different tanks (4×2 tanks). The two last tanks were considered as control without addition of oenological tannins. Alcoholic fermentation was achieved with Actiflore 33® at 20 g/hL. Malolactic fermentation was achieved with Lactoenos B7at 1 g/hL. Finished wines were sulfited to obtain 45 mg/L of total SO2.
