Effect of ageing with Specific Inactivated Dry Yeasts on the volatile composition of Sauvignon Blanc and Carménère wines

Abstract

The wine is a complex matrix made up of several compounds which can interact among themselves throughout the wine ageing process, thereby modifying their sensorial characteristics. It is well known that during ageing of wines on lees, polysaccharides (mainly mannoproteins) can be released and can interact with the aromatic fraction modifying its volatility. Furthermore, the dead yeast can also release other compounds which can act as flavor agents and aromatic precursors improving the complexity of the wines. For several years, the companies of enological products have supplied wineries with several preparations rich in mannoproteins and polysaccharides obtained from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell walls, using physical and/or enzymatic treatment under different names (inactivated dry yeast, yeast autolysates, yeast cell walls, yeast proteic extracts and yeast mannoproteins). These products are supplied as an alternative to wine ageing on lees in order to improve the aromatic profile of the wines. The aim of this work was to study the effect of ageing with different Specific Inactivated Dry Yeasts (SIDY) on the volatile composition of Chilean Sauvignon Blanc and Carménère white and red wines. The dose applied was 30 g/hL and the treatments lasted 2 months. The wines were analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrometryusing the headspace stir bar sorptive extraction technique (HSSE). Stir bars coated with polydimethylsiloxane
(PDMS) were used. In the case of white wines, two different SIDY (SIDY 1 and SIDY 2) were used. The results showed that, in general, the wines treated with both SIDY had higher ester and alcohol amounts than the control wines. Respect to the red wines, three different SIDY (SIDY 1, SIDY 2 and SIDY3) were used. In this case, in general, the wines treated with SIDY 3 were wines with a higher amount of esters and lower quantities of alcohols than the other two treated (SIDY 1, SIDY 2) and the control wines. In addition, the treated red wines presented lower amounts of acetic acid and acetoin than the controls.

Dissecting the polysaccharide‐rich grape cell wall matrix during the red winemaking process, using high‐throughput and fractionation methods

Limited information is available on grape wall-derived polymeric structure/composition and how this changes during fermentation. Commercial winemaking operations use enzymes that target the polysaccharide-rich polymers of the cell walls of grape tissues to clarify musts and extract pigments during the fermentations. In this study we have assessed changes in polysaccharide composition/ turnover throughout the winemaking process by applying recently developed cell wall profiling approaches to both wine and pomace polysaccharides. The methods included gas chromatography for monosaccharide composition (GC-MS), infra-red (IR) spectroscopy and comprehensive microarray polymer profiling
(CoMPP) using cell wall probes.

Influence of toasting oak wood on ellagitannin structures

Ellagitannins (ETs) have been reported to be the main phenolic compounds found in oak wood. These compounds, belonging to the hydrolysable tannin class of polyphenols, are esters of hexahydroxydiphenic acid (HHDP) and a polyol, usually glucose or quinic acid. They own their name to their capacity to be hydrolysed and liberate ellagic acid and they have an impact on astringency and bitterness sensation, which is strongly dependant on their structure. The toasting phase is particularly crucial in barrels fabrication and influences wood composition.

To a better understanding of the impact of vine nitrogen status on volatile thiols from plot to transcriptome level

Volatile thiols contribute largely to the organoleptic characteristics and typicity of Sauvignon blanc wines. Among this family of odorous compounds, 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) and 4-methyl-4-sulfanylpentan-2-one (4MSP) have a major impact on wine flavor. These thiols are formed during alcoholic fermentation by the yeast from odorless and non-volatile precursors found in the berry and the must. The effect of vine nitrogen status on 3SH and 4MSP in Sauvignon blanc wine and on the glutathionylated and cysteinylated precursors of 3SH (Glut-3SH and Cys-3SH) was investigated in this study.

Influence of preflowering basal leaf removal on aromatic composition of cv. Tempranillo wine from semiarid climate (Extremadura Western Spain)

Abstract In this work the effects of early leaf removal performed manually at preflowering phenological stage, on the volatile composition of Tempranillo (Vitis vinifera L.) wines were studied. From 2009-2011 vintages 34 wine volatile compounds were identified and quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) where early leaf removal only modified 25 of them. The total C6 compounds, acetates and volatiles acids (with exception of isobutyric acid) were affected by defoliation, whereas alcohols and esters showed a minor effect. Furthermore the vintage effect also was shown.
