Depletion Of Vine-Shoots Phenolic Composicion After Being Used As An Enological Tool For Wine Differentiation

Abstract

Pruning vine-shoots are a viticulture waste that have been traditionally poorly exploited in relation to its chemical minority composition related to phenolic and volatile compounds. In this line, toasted vine-shoots supposes a proposal of enological tool to use to modulate the chemical and sensorial profile of wines. From a phenolic point of view, when vine-shoots are used during winemaking mainly influence to increase the flavanols and stilbenes content, mostly trans-resveratrol, as also an increasing in the sweet tannins and decreasing the green character and total anthocyanins, changing the violet for garnet colour.
Along with the already proven release of compounds from the vine-shoots to wines elaborates with them, the transfer of some of them that are present in wines to vine-shoots must be considered. For this, the aim of this work was to evaluate the depletion in terms of transfer of phenolic compounds from the wine to vine-shoots that were used during vinification. For which, vine-shoots were analysed before and after having been in contact with the wine. To compare the effect on the type of wine, two wines from Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon were considered, to which toasted vine-shoots of their corresponding varieties were added after malolactic fermentation in a dose of 24 g/L. The analysis in terms of phenolic composition was development by HPLC-DAD.

The results revealed that different patterns were observed for families. As expected, there was a clear transfer of anthocyanins from the wine to vine-shoots, ranging between 3.3 and 3.5 g/Kg for Tempranillo and Cabernet-Sauvignon, which resulted in a loss of 25 to 27% in wines from the respective varieties. The same behaviour was observed for flavonols group, whose content was among 0.29 and 0.25 g/Kg for Tempranillo and Cabernet-Sauvignon vine-shoots, being its decrease in wines between 31 to 25%, respectively. In contrast, flavanols, phenolic acids and stilbenes showed an average increase of 14%, 8% and 57%, showing trans-resveratrol the greatest increase.
These results show the different transfer of phenolic compounds from the wine to vine-shoos. This would suppose that, after being used during winemaking, vine-shoos could be considered for a second use, given their remaining potential.

Investigating water stress-related seasonal and spatial patterns and the possible links with juice and wine compositional parameters

The mapping of spatial variability in vineyards offers the potential to implement zonal management strategies with the aim to optimize economic benefits and increase sustainability by managing natural resources, such as water used for irrigation, more optimally. This study characterized the (natural) variability in plant water status in a commercial Cabernet Sauvignon block, using remote sensing techniques, and identified the impact of this variability on the yield, and juice and wine composition. From the field data collected over two growing seasons, we demonstrated that remote sensing techniques are a practical and powerful tool for mapping spatial variability within vineyard blocks.

Dynamics of soil and canopy temperature: a conceptual approach for Alentejo vineyards

Climate change imposes increasing restrictions and risks to Mediterranean viticulture. Extreme heat and drought stress events are becoming more frequent which puts in risk sustainability of Mediterranean viticulture. Moreover row crops e.g. grapevine for wine, are increasingly prone to the impact of more intense/longer exposure time to heat stress. The amplified effects of soil surface energy reflectance and conductance on soil-atmosphere heat fluxes can be harmful for leaf and berry physiology.

Coming of age: do old vines actually produce berries with higher enological potential than young vines? A case study on the Riesling cultivar

Consumers and the wine industry tend to agree on the ability of old vines to produce fruit that allows the production of wine of superior character. However, despite past and ongoing research, objective evidence of this point of view is still debated and studies on robust, specifically dedicated plots are scarce. Thus the impact of grapevine age on berry oenological potential and wine quality remains an open question. To try to objectively address the issue, a unique vineyard was established at Geisenheim University, Germany. It was planted in 1971 with cv. Riesling grafted on 5C Teleki. In 1995 and 2012, several rows were uprooted and replanted with the same rootstock/scion combination, resulting in a vineyard with alternate rows of identical plant material, but with different planting dates. The parameters of technical maturity and grape composition at harvest were analyzed during seasons 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 combining HPLC and enzymatic methods. Separate micro-vinifications were made for each age group and wine composition was analyzed by a combination of 1H-NMR and SPE-GC-MS.

Terroir aspects in development of quality of Egri bikavér

Egri Bikavér (Bull’s Blood) is one of the most remarkable Hungarian red wines on inland and foreign markets as well. From the end of the 70’s the quality of Egri Bikavér was decreasing continually due to mass production. The concept of production of quality wines became general in the mid 90’s again and it resulted in a new Origin Control System, for the first time that of Egri Bikavér in Hungary.
