Addition of Malvasia di Candia Aromatica must and marcs to Golden Ale beer wort to obtain different Italian Grape Ales

Abstract

Nowadays, the recovery of secondary resources of wine industry is insufficient and the developing of new products and adjuvants from secondary raw materials could become a relevant sector of research. The re-use of byproducts derived from winemaking could improve the sustainability of wine industry and give additional value to other food industries. In the last decades the number of craft breweries have significantly grown all over the world and food market saturation with new food products seemed to be at an all-time high, including alcoholic beverages. For this reason, many breweries started to produce non-conventional beers, also using different raw materials such as ancient grains, spices, and fruits, trying to put on the market something that previously did not exist. Italian Grape Ale (IGA) beers are produced starting from pils or pale malt and should not exhibit a roasty, stout like, profile. Grape or grape must can be pasteurized before the addition and used at different stages of brewing boil, primary/secondary fermentation, or aging. The addition can range from 5% to 40 % of the wort composition. A proper option for brewers could be the addition of an aromatic grape variety to beer wort. Malvasia di Candia aromatica (MaCA) is a grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivar (cv.) that produces aromatic white grapes and is mainly cultivated in the Emilia Romagna province of Piacenza. Another possibility to make new products in beer industry is related to grape marcs addition in different stages of the brewing process with a high added value from a chemical and nutritional point of view. This work studied the possible addition of MaCA grape must and marcs to Golden Ale beer wort in different percentages: 10 and 20%. Fermentations were carried out in triplicate with a control made of 100% beer wort. General parameters, organic acids (LC-DAD), aroma compounds (GC-MS), target polyphenols (LC-MS/MS) and sensory evaluation were carried out to evaluate changes after MaCA juice and marcs addition. Increasing in acidity values were measured in final products after MaCA juice addition compared to controls (1.98, 2.31, and 2.41 g/L of tartaric acid equivalent in beer controls, MaCA 10%, and MaCA 20%, respectively) and after MaCA marcs addition (1.98, 3.15, and 3.40 g/L of tartaric acid equivalent in beer controls, MaCA 10%, and MaCA 20%, respectively). Other results confirmed that beers with 20% MaCA juice addition and 10% MaCA marcs addition resulted more complex in aroma profile with the presence of free monoterpenic compounds, expecially β-citronellol, linalool, linalool oxides, nerol and α-terpineol. Sensory evaluation confirmed differences in aroma intensity and acidity perception between different beers. Panelists preferred the addition of 20 % of MaCA juice as the best option. Collaboration with a craft brewery will carried out to produce beers with addition of 20 % of MaCA juice and 10% of MaCA marcs in a 12-hL scale.

Effects of soil water content and environmental conditions on vine water status and gas exchange of Vitis vinifera L. cv. chardonnay

Vine water status has a significant influence on vineyard yield and berry composition (Williams and Matthews, 1990; Williams et al., 1994). It has been hypothesized that the response of plants to soil water deficits may be due to some sort of “root signal” (Davies and Zhang, 1991). This signal probably arises due to the roots sensing a reduction in soil water content or an increase in the mecanical impedance as the soil dries out.

Screening of soil yeasts with fermentative capacity from the antarctic continent for their application in the wine industry

AIM: In the last years, many wineries are increasing experimentation to produce more distinguishable beverages. In this sense, the reduction of the fermentation temperature could be a useful tool because it preserves volatile compounds and prevents wines from browning, particularly in the case of white wines.

Influence des facteurs naturels du terroir sur la maturation du raisin en Alsace

A study of the influence of environmental factors on the ripening of grapes under the conditions of Alsace is carried out. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of the mesoclimate and pedoclimate. The experiment is conducted on a network of plots of gewurztraminer grafted on SO4. The production conditions are standardized throughout the device.

Sensory impacts of the obturator used for the Chasselas: study over the time

Many parameters affect the organoleptic characteristics of wine: internal parameters like the chemical composition or polyphenol content and external as for example storage conditions or the type of obturator. The aim of this study was to characterize sensorally the impacts of several type of obturator on a white wine: Chasselas. To determine the organoleptic characteristics of this wine, a quantitative descriptive analysis could be used. But rapid sensory methods were preferred in this project. Indeed these methods are an appropriate alternative to conventional descriptive methods for quickly assessing sensory product discrimination.

The sensory profile of astringency: application on Sangiovese wines

One of the main sensory characteristics of red wine is astringency, which can be defined as drying, puckering and roughing of the oral cavity after the exposure to tannin-rich wines. Tannins are the main responsible for the intensity of the sensation as well for the qualitative aspects of astringency. However, the total intensity of the sensation is not sufficient to fully characterize red wine astringency. Thirty-three different subqualities (Gawel et al. 2001) had been generated to describe the complexity of this multi perceptual phenomenon, which includes both tastes, tactile, and flavor sensations. So, how to feel tannins during tasting? In this study, we used a sensory method that combine the training for astringency subqualities with touch-standards and the CATA questions, usually applied in consumer science, to evaluate the astringency subqualities of different typologies of Sangiovese: commercial and experimental wines. Sangiovese wine represents a good model for the study of astringency because it is generally characterized by a high content of low and high molecular weight proantocyanidins. Commercial wines differed for percentage of Sangiovese (80-100 %) grapes used in winemaking and for designation (Toscana TS, Chianti Classico CH, Chianti Riserva CR, Morellino di Scansano MS). The astringency profile of wines changed as the percentage of Sangiovese increased. Positive subqualities as velvet, soft, mouthcoat, and rich highly characterized the Sangiovese wine belonging to TS and CR designations. Moreover, the astringency subqualities related to blending or wood aging, represented the drivers of quality of commercial Sangiovese wines.
