Abstract

Wine by-products valorisation by green chemistry methods: Impact of the extraction process on the structure, functionalities and activity of the extracted molecules

Viniculture is a huge socio-economic activity throughout the world, 57% of worldwide grape production is for wine-making industry. Wine-making generates huge amounts of by-products (grape pomace (skins, pulp, seeds and stalks), which is around 20 % of total wine production [1]. Wine by-products shown to have a big potential to be used for the extraction of valuable high-added components, however they are sent directly to distilleries for alcohol, spirits and piquette production. The treatment of biomass is often challenging due to its complex matrix

and composition. Heavy industrialization and associated huge environmental impact make reconsidering traditional chemistry methods.

The aim of our work is to valorise valuable components (pectins, fatty acids, polyphenols) from grape by-products by implementing green chemistry methods such as microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and supercritical CO2 extraction (SFE). In this work, grape pomace from white grapes was considered for the extractions. By using MAE, we were able to extract pectin with a yield up to 8% from grape pomace. Fatty acids were successfully extracted by SFE from grape pomace with CO2 under 40° C, 400 bar and by using ethanol 5% as co-solvent. Water as co-solvent 10 % in supercritical CO2 extraction lead to burgundy coloured liquid, which contained wine related phenolic compounds detected by U-HPLC (gallic and caftaric acids, hydroxytyrosol, catechin). In addition, the coloured extracts undergo pectin isolation procedure and freeze-dried. Initial observation of the extract by FTIR show similar signature to industrial pectin. The findings show possible valorisation of pectin, grape seed oil and phenolic compounds from wine pomace.

Wine tourism in southern Italy: A surge in popularity and economic impact

Wine tourism has transformed from a leisure activity into a crucial part of the tourist experience, significantly contributing to rural tourism’s expansion in italy. It has witnessed a notable surge in popularity in recent years, evolving as a key motivator for travel (antonioli corigliano, 2002; brunori & rossi, 2000; città del vino & censis servizi, 2011; garibaldi, 2018; 2019a; 2020; montanari, 2009; romano & natilli, 2009). The allure of wine tourism, driven by sensory experiences and cultural immersion, continues to attract a diverse group of tourists. The economic impact is substantial, with events and festivals contributing approximately €2.5 billion annually.

The colour pattern of flower arrangements influence wine tasters’ sensory description

The arrangements of flowers and wine counterparts are inextricably linked. Whether a fundamental aspect of tablescaping or acolytes to broader entertainment rituals, they have an entangled history since ancient times. The aim of this contribution is to verify the influence of visually delicate and robust flower arrangements on individual description of wines. Changes in the sensory description of wines were investigated during subjects’ (thirty-two participants) exposure to three different conditions: the presence of delicate, robust, or totally absent flower arrangements.

Effect of oenological tannins on wine aroma before and after oxidation: a real-time study by coupling sensory (TDS) and chemical (PTR-ToF-MS) analyses

Polyphenols are important compounds involved in many chemical and sensory wine features. In winemaking, adding oenological tannins claims to have positive impacts on wine stability, protection from oxidation and aroma persistence. Polyphenols are antioxidant compounds by either scavenging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species or chelating Fe2+ ions (1). However, as tannins oxidation leads to the formation of highly reactive species (i.e. ortho-quinones), it is still unclear if they have an effective role toward oxidation of wine aromas (2). In this work, we aim at studying the effect of two commercial tannins (proanthocyanidins, ellagitannins) on red wine flavour (mainly aroma) before and after air exposition.

A generic method to analyze vine water deficit continuously

In the context of global warming, water scarcity is becoming an increasing issue worldwide. However, the reference method to characterize vine water deficit is based on water potential measurement, which is a destructive and discontinuous method. The current climatic context emphasizes the need for more precise and more continuous vineyard water use measurements in order to optimize irrigation and vine water deficit monitoring.

Cumulative effects of repeated drought stress on berry composition, and phenolic profile: Field experiment insights

Drought stress has a profound impact on grapevine productivity and significantly alters key quality-related traits of berries. Although research has been conducted on the effects of individual drought events, there is still a knowledge gap regarding the cumulative consequences of repeated exposure to water scarcity and the influence of the timing of stress imposition. To address this gap, a field experiment was conducted to investigate the impacts of repeated drought stress on yield, berry composition, and the phenolic profile of grape berries. The results indicate that yield is primarily influenced by pre-veraison water deficit. Although the number of clusters was only slightly reduced, a substantial decrease in berry size was observed, resulting in a notable reduction in overall yield.
