Influence of protein stabilization with aspergillopepsin I on wine aroma composition

Abstract

The protein haze formation in white and rosé wines during storage, shipping and commercialization has always been an important issue for winemakers. Among the various solutions industrially proposed, the use of bentonite is certainly the most widespread. However, the harmful effects of this treatment are known either in terms of wine volume loss and wine flavour and aroma. The use of aspergillopepsin I -an acid endoprotease from Aspergillus spp- in must and wine has been recently approved by OIV and the European Commission for protein stability, coupled to a heat treatment. Beyond the established efficacy of this approach on wine stability, little is known about its influence on the wine aroma profile. The present study aims to evaluate the combined effect of heat treatment with proteases (HP) in musts on the concentration of 74 wine aroma compounds at lab and semi-industrial scale.  Eight grape musts were treated with acid proteases and heated at 70°C for the lab-scale trials, and the concentrations of wine volatile compounds at the end of the alcoholic fermentation were compared with those deriving form a traditional white and rosé winemaking protocol. The must treatment induced a significant increase (one-way ANOVA, Tukey’s HSD p

TCA – A status report on South African cork closures

Cork taint decreases the commercial value of wine as tainted wines are rejected by consumers. Although other compounds in wine and cork can also be responsible for causing a taint, 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (TCA) is regarded as the primary cause of cork taint. As cork taint is often used in marketing campaigns against natural cork closures,

Using climate services to project grapevine varietal adequation under climate change – application to cv. Tempranillo in the Douro wine region

Vine growth circumstances are becoming warmer and drier because of climate change. Higher temperatures advance ripening to a point in the season less conducive to the production of fine wine, while drought reduces yields (Van Leeuwen et al., 2019). Several wine-producing regions around the world have already recognized threats to their viticultural viability (Santos et al., 2020). An economical and cost-effective strategy for adaptation is the employment of late-ripening, drought-resistant plant material (varieties, clones, and rootstocks).
