Bioprotection and oenological tannins association to protect Rosé wine color

Abstract

The bioprotection of musts or grapes is a strategy for limiting sulfiting during winemaking and more specifically at pre-fermentative step. The most preconized yeasts in bioprotection mainly belong to Metschnikowia pulcherrima and Torulaspora delbrueckii species. While previous studies have demonstrated that bioprotectant non-Saccharomyces strains were able to protect musts and wines against microbial spoilage as well as sulfites, they cannot protect must against oxidation which appears to be the main limit of this practice.

A combination of antimicrobial activity through bioprotection (inoculation of a Metschnikowia pulcherrima strain on grapes) and the antioxidant properties of low amounts of sulfites or enological tannins have been tested in order to replace or diminish SO2 addition in rosé winemaking (grape variety Pinot Noir) at pre-fermentative steps. This experiment was carried out under cellar condition. Two enological tannins were tested: quebracho tannins belonging to the condensed tannins family and gall nuts tannins belonging to the hydrolysable gallotannins family. Results showed that combination of bioprotection with enological tannins protected rosé wine color similarly as the combination with SO2, which was not the case with bioprotection alone. The color differences observed cannot be explained neither by anthocyanins concentration, nor by phenolic composition of wines. Quebracho tannins seemed more efficient than gall nuts tannins to protect the color of bioprotected rosé wines.

Challenges and opportunities for increasing organic carbon in vineyard soils: perspectives of extension specialists

Context description and research question: an increasing number of farmers are considering the impact of conservation practices on soil health to guide sustainable management of vineyards. Understanding impacts of soil management on soil organic carbon (SOC) is one lever for adoption of agroecological practice with potential to help maintain or improve soil health while building SOC stocks to mitigate climate change (Amelung et al., 2020).

Linking soil C cycling and microbial diversity under regenerative management in Northern California (USA) vineyards

Regenerative agriculture (RA) practices aim to minimize soil disturbance, keep soil covered, maintain living roots underground, and integrate livestock to improve soil health and sustainability.

Under-row low competitive herbaceous cover: A sustainable alternative to herbicide in vineyards

Weeds are undesirable plants in agroecosystems as they compete with the crop for essential resources such as light, water and nutrients, compromising the final yield and its quality.

Drought responses in Chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc grapevine cultivars: Mechanistic insights and varietal contrasts

This study explored the responses of Chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc grapevine cultivars to water deficit across four years, uncovering their shared patterns and distinctive coping mechanisms. The research was conducted in a commercial vineyard located in Isla de Maipo, Chile. Various characterization approaches were employed including plant water potentials (), gas exchange measurements, shoot vulnerability curves, productivity assessments, and leaf cell water relations. Linear mixed models and sensitivity analyses were performed using various statistical methods to evaluate cultivar responses to water deficit. As the water deficit progressed, both cultivars displayed a parallel reduction in stomatal conductance, leaf turgor, and increased shoot embolism.
