UNRAVELLING THE ROLE OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA ON SPARKLING WINE ELABORATION THROUGH METABOLOMICS APPROACH

Abstract

Xinomavro is a red grape variety from Northern Greece (Protected Designation of Origin), known for the nice acidities, perfectly appropriate for sparkling wine production (Rosé and Blanc de Noir). The elaboration of sparkling wine requires technical as well as scientific skills. Although the impact of the yeast strains and their metabolites on the final product quality is well documented, the action of bacteria still remains unknown.

The present work focuses (i) on the population diversity of lactic acid bacteria isolated from sparkling wines and (ii) on the technological effect of the species during sparkling wine elaboration. Bacterial strains were typed by multiple loci VNTR analysis (MLVA) based on five tandem repeats loci and 3 different strains were chosen as starters for the sparkling wine production.

Xinomavro base wine was treated according to the winery production protocol and second fermentation was realised in the bottle under 6 different inoculation schemes.1) addition of S. cerevisiae (Lalvin DV10) 2) addition of S. cerevisiae (Lalvin DV10) and Lysozyme (40g/hL) 3) addition of S. cerevisiae (Lalvin DV10) and O. oeni Greek strain (UNIWA collection) 4) addition of S. cerevisiae (Lalvin DV10) and O. oeni French strain (CRBO collection) 5) addition of S. cerevisiae (Lalvin DV10) and O. oeni Commercial strain 6) addition of Schizo saccharomyces pombe strain (NRRL collection). Twelve months after the second fermentation in the bottle, oenological parameters were determined according to the OIV protocols, the volatile compounds produced were measured by GC/MS, and the metabolomic fingerprint analysis were acquired by an UPLC-HDMS-QTof-MS instrument. Finally, all produced wines were evaluated by quantitative descriptive sensorial analysis.

Malolactic fermentations were realized in all cases except the condition n°2 where lysozyme was added. Forty compounds were quantified and separated according to their chemical classes (monoterpenes, norisoprenoids, aldehydes, alcohols, esters, acids, and ketones) while statistical analysis showed the presence of three groups of sparkling wines according to the inoculation scheme. The untargeted metabolomic approach clearly discriminated the action of bacteria and revealed intra species variability at strain level. This is the first time that highlights the role of lactic acid bacteria and precisely of the species of O. oeni to sparkling wine elaboration.

DISCRIMINATION OF BOTRYTIS CINEREA INFECTED GRAPES USING UNTARGE-TED METABOLOMIC ANALYSIS WITH DIRECT ELECTROSPRAY IONISATION MASS SPECTROMETRY

Infection of grapes (Vitis vinifera) by Botrytis cinerea (grey mould) is a frequent occurrence in vineyards and during prolonged wet and humid conditions can lead to significant detrimental impact on yield and overall quality. Growth of B. cinerea causes oxidisation of phenolic compounds resulting in a loss of colour and formation of a suite of off-flavours and odours in wine made from excessively infected fruit. Apart from wine grapes, developing post-harvest B. cinerea infection in high-value horticultural products during storage, shipment and marketing may cause significant loss in fresh fruits, vegetables and other crops. A rapid and sensitive assessment method to detect, screen and quantify fungal infection would greatly assist viticultural growers and winemakers in determining fruit quality.

EVALUATION OF THE OENOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF NEW RESISTANT VARIETIES MEETING TYPICAL BORDEAUX CHARACTERISTICS

Varietal innovation is a major lever for meeting the challenges of the agro-ecological transition of vi-neyards and their adaptation to climate change. To date, selection work has already begun in the Bordeaux region through the Newvine project. The aim of this project is to create new vine varieties with resistance to mildew and powdery mildew, adapted to the climatic conditions of the Bordeaux region and enabling the production of wines that are in line with consumer tastes and the expected typicity of Bordeaux wines.

SENSORY IMPROVEMENT OF DEALCOHOLISED WINES

Interest and willing-ness to buy alcohol-free wines by customers is increasing for several years [1]. Due to the rising relevance of dealcoholised wines it is the objective of this study to contribute to a better understanding of the flavor variation among dealcoholised wines and to explore enological measures, how to improve final quality.
First a range of commercial, alcoholfree white wines were analysed by the holistic sensory method projective mapping, including a question for hedonic acceptance. Based on the combination of a non-target-HS-SPME-GC/MS analysis with sensory analysis we obtained a clustering of the wines into three groups.

Overhead spray water treatment as a mitigation strategy for reducing vine stress and preserving grape quality during heatwaves

Changes in climate have been influencing the quality of wine grapes worldwide. The impact of extreme climate events over short periods is increasingly recognized as a serious risk to grape quality and yield quantity. In this study the mitigation effects of a pulsed water spray on vine canopy during heatwave events has been evaluated for maintaining vine condition during the growing season and grape quality. Vines of three varieties (Malbec, Bonarda, and Syrah) under drip irrigation in the UNCuyo experimental vineyard were treated with an overhead pulsed water spray.

VOLATILE COMPOUNDS AND SENSORY PROFILE OF NEBBIOLO RED WINES TREATED WITH WOOD FORMATS ALTERNATIVE TO BARRELS

In winemaking, the use of wood products alternative to barrels, has become a useful tool for the achievement of numerous oenological objectives, including the fast release of desirable volatile and polyphenolic compounds, colour stabilization, and important economic advantages if compared to the traditional barrel production. Among a huge array of variables, the wood format, the vinification protocol, especially the moment of the infusion of the woods and the exposed surface area of the alternative woods are of relevant significance, since they may influence the speed and intensity of the aroma transfer from the wood to the wine defining different sensory profiles.
