Influence of polysaccharide extracts from wine by-products on the volatile composition of sparkling white wines

Abstract

In the production of sparkling wines, during the second fermentation, mannoproteins are released by yeast autolysis, which affect the quality of the wines. The effect of mannoproteins has been extensively studied, and may affect aroma and foam quality. However, there are no studies on the effect of other polysaccharides such as those from grapes. Considering the large production of waste from the wine industry, it was proposed to obtain polysaccharide-rich extracts from some of these by-products[1]. Therefore, the aim of this work was to study the effect of polysaccharide extracts obtained from white grape must and pomace on the volatile composition of a sparkling white wine and to compare them with the use of commercial mannoproteins.

The Verdejo sparkling wines were elaborated by the traditional method and the different extracts were added in the tirage liquor. Five experiences were carried out: control wine and wines with the addition of four extracts from white must, white pomace, and two commercial products rich in yeast polysaccharides. The second fermentation was carried out in closed bottles in contact with lees and after 9 months, the sparkling wines were riddled and disgorged, and they were analyzed after 3 months. Minor volatile compounds were extracted by headspace solid-phase microextraction and quantified using a gas chromatograph coupled to a mass detector.

Statistically significant differences were found for most of the volatile compounds evaluated by treatment effect. The sparkling wines treated with polysaccharide extracts from wine by-products showed higher contents of ethyl esters of straight-chain fatty acids, ethyl esters of branched-chain fatty acids, alcohol acetates, terpenes and vanillin derivates than control wines. Therefore, these extracts can favor the maintenance of high content of volatile compounds associated with fruity and floral notes.

Effect of two water deficit regimes on the agronomic response of 12 grapevine varieties cultivated in a semi-arid climate

The Mediterranean basin is one of the most vulnerable regions to Climate Change effects. According to unanimous forecasts, the vineyards of Castilla-La Mancha will be among the most adversely affected by rising temperatures and water scarcity during the vine’s vegetative period. One potential strategy to mitigate the negative impacts of these changes involves the identification of grapevine varieties with superior water use efficiency, while ensuring satisfactory yields and grape quality.

Molecularly imprinted polymers: an innovative strategy for harvesting polyphenoles from grape seed extracts

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a multifactorial autoimmune disease associating demyelination and axonal degeneration developing in young adults and affecting 2–3 million people worldwide. Plant polyphenols endowed with many therapeutic benefits associated with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties represent highly interesting new potential therapeutic strategies. We recently showed the safety and high efficiency of grape seed extract (GSE), a complex mixture of polyphenolics compounds comprising notably flavonoids and proanthocyanidins, in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mouse model of MS.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Electrodialysis in Controlling Brettanomyces Growth in Wine

Brettanomyces yeast can negatively impact the quality and stability of wines, posing a significant challenge to winemakers. [1] This study aims to develop novel management practices to limit Brettanomyces impact on wines by evaluating the effectiveness of electrodialysis (ED) technology in removing magnesium (Mg2+) from wine to prevent the development of Brettanomyces yeast. The ED technique utilizes charged membranes to extract ions from the wine, and it is considered an alternative to cold stabilization that requires less energy. [2]

Characterization of a Sémillon clonal population: exploring genetic diversity, metabolomic profiles, and phenotypic variations

Sémillon is a cultivated grape variety known for contributing to dry and sweet white wine production. However, only seven approved clones have been officially recognized in France[1]. In this study, we aimed to characterize the genetic diversity and metabolomic profiles of a Sémillon clonal population, shedding light on the potential variations within this important grape variety.

Foliar application of urea improved the nitrogen composition of Chenin grapes

The nitrogen composition of the grapes directly affects the developments of alcoholic fermentation and influences the final aromatic composition of the wines. The aim of this study was to determine the effect and efficiency of foliar applications of urea on the nitrogen composition of grapes. This study was carried out during 2023 vintage and in the Chenin vineyard located in Estacion Experimental Mendoza (Argentina). Three urea concentrations 3, 6 and 9 Kg N/ha (C1, C2, and C3, respectively) and control (T) were applied in this vineyard at veraison. In all solutions were added 1ml/l of Tween 80 ® surfactant.
