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

Measurements of the oxygen dissolved in white wines elaborated in barrels without to open the bung of the barrels

Bases on oxoluminescence, we have developed an innovative device for measuring dissolved oxygen in wines in barrels without opening the bung. This system is directly inserted into the wood during the barrel elaboration and can be positioned at different locations of the barrel (the head, the hull …). During two successive vintages we have used this device notably to follow the oxygen dissolved of whites wines elaborated in barrels. This allowed us initially to monitor the oxygen levels of the harvest to bottling the whole elaboration process in barrels of white wines without using techniques of measurement suitable to modify the real values in wines (opening the bung to plunge an oximeter).

Terroir factors causing sensory and chemical variation in Riesling wines

The term “terroir”, originated in France, comprises the interaction of soil, climate, and topography with the vines of a specific variety and may be extended to the human impact due to the active choice of viticultural and oenological treatments.

Hyperspectral imaging and machine learning for monitoring grapevine physiology

Rootstocks are gaining importance in viticulture as a strategy to combat abiotic challenges, as well as enhancing scion physiology and attributes. Therefore, understanding how the rootstock affects photosynthesis is insightful for genetic improvement of either genotype in the grafted grapevines. Photosynthetic parameters such as maximum rate of carboxylation of RuBP (Vcmax) and the maximum rate of electron transport driving RuBP regeneration (Jmax) have been identified as ideal targets for breeding and genetic studies. However, techniques used to directly measure these photosynthetic parameters are limited to the single leaf level and are time-consuming measurements.
