EFFECT OF MANNOPROTEIN-RICH EXTRACTS FROM WINE LEES ON PHENOLICCOMPOSITION AND COLOUR OF RED WINE

Abstract

In 2022, wine production was estimated at around 260 million hl. This high production rate implies to generate a large amount of by-products, which include grape pomace, grape stalks and wine lees. It is estimated that processing 100 tons of grapes leads to ~ 22 tons of by-products from which ~ 6 tons are lees [1]. Wine lees are a sludge-looking material mostly made of dead and living yeast cells, yeast debris and other particles that precipitate at the bottom of wine tanks after alcoholic fermentation. Unlike grape pomace or grape stalks, few strategies have been proposed for the recovery and valorisation of wine less [2]. Nevertheless, this by-product could become a source of interesting compounds, such as mannoprotein rich extracts (MRE). Therefore, the aim of this work was to obtain MRE from different lees, to characterize them, and to evaluate their effect on wine colour and on the phenolic composition of red wines.

Red, rosé and white wines were used as sources of lees, which were collected after the alcoholic fermentation with different Saccharomyces cerevisiae commercial varieties. The extraction of MRE was performed by physical extraction (autoclave) followed by a purification with ethanol. The protein and polysaccharidic moieties of the purified extracts were characterized by SDS-PAGE, Lowry method, HR-SEC-RID and HPLC-DAD-MS. The obtained MRE were added to a red wine (Vitis vinifera L. cv Tempranillo) and the changes in the phenolic composition and colour were analysed by HPLC-DAD-MS and triestimulus colorimetry, respectively, before and after the stabilization of the wine (involving cold treatment). Results obtained showed that the extraction yield of MRE was efficient (~ 40 mg/g wet lees) for all types of lees assayed, which supports the valorisation of wine lees as a sustainable source of MRE. Interestingly, MRE presented important structural and compositional differences, both in the protein content and in the polysaccharidic profile, although the source of lees, namely red, white and rosé wines, was not the main factor determining these differences, but the winemaking techniques or the S. cerevisiae strain employed. Furthermore, the addition of the MRE to red wine had an effect on the stabilization of wine colour and its phenolic content that rely mainly on the saccharidic characteristics of each MRE. These results pointed out that MRE from wine less could be a potential tool to improve the colloidal stability of wine phenolic compounds.

VOLATILE AND GLYCOSYLATED MARKERS OF SMOKE IMPACT: EVOLUTION IN BOTTLED WINE

Smoke impact in wines is caused by a wide range of volatile phenols found in wildfire smoke. These compounds are absorbed and accumulate in berries, where they may also become glycosylated. Both volatile and glycosylated forms eventually end up in wine where they can cause off-flavors. The impact on wine aroma is mainly attributed to volatile phenols, while in-mouth hydrolysis of glycosylated forms may be responsible for long-lasting “ashy” aftertastes (1).

EVIDENCE OF THE INTERACTION OF ULTRASOUND AND ASPERGILLOPEPSINS I ON UNSTABLE GRAPE PROTEINS

Most of the effects of ultrasound (US) result from the collapse of bubbles due to cavitation. The shockwave produced is associated with shear forces, along with high localised temperatures and pressures. However, the high-speed stream, radical species formation, and heat generated during sonication may also affect the stability of some enzymes and proteins, depending on their chemical structure. Recently, Ce-lotti et al. (2021) reported the effects of US on protein stability in wines. To investigate this further, the effect of temperature (40°C and 70°C; 60s), sonication (20 kHz and 100 % amplitude, for 20s and 60s, leading to the same temperatures as above, respectively), in combination with Aspergillopepsins I (AP-I) supplementation (100 μg/L), was studied on unstable protein concentration (TLPs and chitinases) using HPLC with an UV–Vis detector in a TLPs-supplemented model system and in an unstable white wine.

YEAST-PRODUCED VOLATILES IN GRAPE BASED SYSTEM MODEL ACTING AS ANTIFUNGAL BIOAGENTS AGAINST PHYTOPATHOGEN BOTRYTIS CINEREA

Botrytis cinerea Pers., the causal agent of grey mould disease, is responsible for substantial economic losses, as it causes reduction of grape and wine quality and quantity. Exploitation of antagonistic yeasts is a promising strategy for controlling grey mould incidence and limiting the usage of synthetic fungicides. In our previous studies, 119 different indigenous yeasts were screened for putative multidimensional modes of action against filamentous fungus B. cinerea [1]. The most promissing biocontrol yeast was Pichia guilliermondii ZIM624, which exhibited several anatagonistic traits (production of cell wall degrading enzymes, chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase; demonstration of in vitro inhibitory effect on B. cinerea mycelia radial growth; production of antifungal volatiles, assimilation of a broad diversity of carbon sources, contributing to its competitivnes in inhabiting grapes in nature).

OENOLOGICAL AND SUSTAINABILITY POTENTIAL OF WINES PRODUCED FROM DISEASE RESISTANT GRAPE CULTIVARS (PIWI WINES)

The strategy for sustainability in the wine sector of the EU refers to a set of practices and principles that aim to minimize the negative impact of wine production on the environment, social and economic sustainability. Sustainable wine production involves a range of practices that are designed to reduce waste, conserve resources, and promote the well-being of workers and communities.
