Valorization of wine lees for oenological interest by eco-responsible processes

Abstract

Wine lees are the second most important wine by-product in terms of quantity after grape stalk and marc. During aging on lees, it is well known that wine lees yield compounds that act as antioxydant. However the chemical nature of the compounds involved in this behavior (except polyphenols and glutathione) has not yet been totally elucidated. The scarce knowledge of wine lees composition and their potential exploitation make them a promising candidate to obtain new antioxidant products to be used in winemaking. In this study, an eco-sustainable approach to obtain lees extracts exhibiting antioxidant capacity is proposed. Such extracts could be used in a global enological strategy of sulfites level reduction.

During this work, lees extraction has been carried out with conventional solvent and subcritical water extraction. The solid/liquid ratio and the influence of extraction duration were studied for each solvent. The total composition of lees extracts was assessed. Proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, polyphenols, and glutathione analyses were performed by spectrophotometry and HPLC. Antioxidant capacity of each extracts was evaluated by three methods: the ability of antioxidants to scavenge a radical by DPPH, ferric reducing antioxidant power by FRAP and Oxygen Consumption rate (OCR) by direct oxygen consumption measurement.
Results show an important effect of operational conditions, solvent and matrice on the diversity of extracts in terms of composition and bioactivity. For the first time, an eco-sustainable process has been proposed for the valorization of white wine lees to obtain extracts with high antioxidant activity. The extracts antioxidant capacity is promising to their target application in vinification as well as in food industry in order to reduce doses of sulfites.

Analisi delle modalita’ d’interazione tra conoscenza dl un territorio e gestione dei suoi aspetti enoturistici relativamente ad una regione (Toscana)

Il Turismo negli anni 2000 si appresta ad essere la più vasta ed estesa impresa presente nel mondo. Se a cio si aggiunge il fatto che il tempo libero risulta essere, per la maggior parte delle persone, la principale aspirazione da considerare ben oltre il proprio benessere eco­nomico, ci si rende conto del perché di una crescente domanda di ecoturismo. Un viaggiare sempre più accorto aile valenze ambientali e tipiche di un territorio.

Defoliation timing impacts berry secondary metabolites and sunburn damage

Sunburn is a physiological disorder that leads to yield and quality losses in a range of fruits such as grapes and apples. It affects the visual appearance and the composition of the fruit, leading to irreversible changes and ultimately, cell death in extreme situations.

Modélisation du régime thermique des sols de vignoble du Val de Loire : relations avec des variables utilisables pour la caractérisation des terroirs

Temperature has a decisive influence on the growth and development of plants (Carbonneau et al., 1992). In particular, in the case of the vine, the temperature is an omnipresent variable in the climatic indices (Huglin, 1986). For reasons of convenience, these indices use the temperature of the air measured under shelter in a meteorological station, making the implicit hypothesis of a concordance between this temperature and that of the sites of perception of the thermal stimulus by the plant. However, development may be more dependent on soil temperature than air temperature (Kliewer, 1975). Morlat (1989) thus verified that the variability in the precocity of the vine, positively correlated with the quality of the harvest and of the wine in the Loire Valley, was mainly explained by differences in temperature of the root zones.
