Veraison as determinant for wine quality and its potential for climate adapted breeding

Abstract

The evaluation of new grapevine genotypes regarding their potential to produce high quality wines is the time limiting factor in the process of grapevine breeding. Hence, the development of quality-related markers useable in marker-assisted selection (MAS) as well as in prediction models for this bottleneck trait will tremendously enhance breeding efficiency. In extensive studies a training set of a segregating white wine F1 population (150 F1 genotypes = POP150; `Calardis Musqué´ x `Villard Blanc´) was deeply phenotyped and genotyped for model development and QTL analysis.

The high variance in ripening time within this population was identified as major factor influencing the quality potential of the individual genotypes. This is mainly induced by the early veraison locus Ver1 on chromosome 16 genetically inherited by ‘Calardis Musqué’. Ver1 could be traced back to the early ripening ‘Pinot Noir’ (PN) clone ‘Pinot Precoce Noir’ (PPN). Many important quality attributes of the population were directly affected, especially sugars, organic acids, pH value and key aroma compounds. For some of these constituents the Ver1 locus shows the highest genetic impact in QTL analysis. Understanding the genetic base of ripening and the subsequently resulting effects on quality offers breeders knowledge and helpful tools for the early and efficient selection of genotypes carrying hidden (at least until the first full yield) potential for quality oriented climate-adaption. Furthermore, it enables the implementation of additional selection criteria in marker-assisted selection (MAS), when stacking of resistance loci is no longer the limiting factor in seedling production.

Determination of steviol glycosides in wine by HPLC

The SCL laboratory in Bordeaux is one of the two official control laboratories for wine and wine products in france, under the authority of the ministry of finance and two of its general directorates: the DGCCRF (directorate general for competition, consumer affairs and fraud control) and the DGDDI (directorate general of customs and excise duties). In this capacity, it verifies the regulatory compliance of wines and investigates any possible falsifications or fraud. Steviol glycosides are natural sweeteners that are not authorized as additives in wine.

Study of the interactions between wine anthocyanins and proline rich proteins

The interaction between tannins and salivary proteins is considered to be the basis of the phenomenon of wine astringency. Recently, some authors have revealed that some anthocyanins can also contribute to this mouthfeel sensation by interacting with proline rich proteins (PRPs). However, more studies are needed in order to elucidate the affinity of anthocyanins with these proteins.

Pinot noir is an interesting vat variety for the high quality products it provides in the most suitable areas. In France, the most important Pinot Noir growing areas are Burgundy, Champagne, Alsace and the Loire. In Italy, Pinot Noir is grown almost exclusively in the northern regions of Trentino-Alto Adige, Lombardy and Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
