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.

Oxidability of wines made from Spanish minority grape varieties

The phenolic profile of a wine plays an essential role in its oxidative capacity and in both white and red wines it defines its shelf life[1]. The study of minority varieties to produce wines with peculiar characteristics necessarily includes the phenolic and oxidative characterization of the wines produced. This paper presents the study of wines made from 24 minority and majority white and red grape varieties, focusing on phenolic characteristics (total phenols, slightly polymerized phenols, highly polymerized phenols, anthocyanins…), color, as well as parameters related to the oxidability of the wines and their capacity to consume oxygen [2].

Molecular approaches for understanding and modulating wine taste

Wine consumers generally demand wines having a perception of softer tannins and less ripe, having a heaviness and richness on palate (full-body wine) with a limpid and stable color. However, polyphenol
(tannins)-rich wines have been also correlated with unpleasant taste properties such as astringency and
bitterness when perceived at high intensities. Modulating these unpleasant properties could be important for consumer’s approval of wines.

Anthropogenic factors in modulations of fungal populations from grapes to wines and their repercussions on wine characteristics

The effects of anthropogenic activities on vineyard (different plant protections) and in winery
(pressing/clarification step, addition of sulfur dioxide) on fungal populations from grape to wine were studied. The studied anthropogenic activities modify the fungal diversity. Thus, lower biodiversity of grapes from organic modality was measured for the three vintages considered compared to biodiversity from ecophyto modality and conventional modality. The pressing / clarification steps strongly modify fungal populations and the influence of the winery flora is highlighted.

Assyrtiko wines of Santorini produced by different autochthonous yeasts: Differences in aromatic and organoleptic profiles

Different yeasts were isolated from spontaneous fermentation of Assyrtiko grape must in Santorini Island, Greece. Molecular typing revealed the presence of three Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains (S9, S13, S24) and one strain of the yeast species Nakazawaea ishiwadae (N.i). The four isolated strains were further tested in laboratory scale fermentations of Assyrtiko must in pure inoculation cultures and in sequential inoculation (72 hours) of each S. cerevisiae strain with the strain of N. ishiwadae. All fermentation trials were realised in duplicate.

Use of glutathione and a selected strain of metschnikowia pulcherrima as alternatives to sulphur dioxide to inhibit natural tyrosinase of grape must and prevent browning

The enzymatic browning of grape must is still a major problem in oenology today [1] being particularly serious when the grapes have been infected by grey rot [2]. Browning is an oxidation process that causes certain foods to turn brown, which often leads to them being rejected by consumers [3]. This is a particular problem in the case of wine, because grape must is very vulnerable to enzymatic browning [4].
