Postharvest ozone treatment in grapevine white cultivars: Effects on grape volatile composition

Abstract

During postharvest management, the metabolism of fruits remains active and continuous physico-chemical changes occur. Ozone treatment has an elicitor effect on secondary metabolites and the treatment conditions can influence the grape response to the stress (Bellincontro et al., 2017; Botondi et al., 2015). Regarding volatile organic compounds (VOCs), previous studies showed that ozone treatment during postharvest dehydration induces the biosynthesis of terpenes in Moscato bianco grapes (Río Segade et al., 2017). It is well known that grape VOCs greatly influence the organoleptic properties of wines, particularly terpenes in aromatic varieties. Therefore, the aim of this study was to know the VOCs response to oxidative stress during postharvest ozone treatment in Galician white cultivars Albariño, Godello and Blanco Lexítimo (Vitis vinifera L.) from Ribeira Sacra wine region (Galicia, Spain). Grape samples from 2021 and 2022 vintages were exposed during 24 hours to ozone (30 mg/L) and air (control) at 10 ºC. Grape free and glycosylated volatile compounds were determined by SPE/GC–MS.

The results obtained showed that the ozone treatment effect on grapes volatiles depends of cultivar and vintage studied. In general, ozone caused an increase of total content of terpenes in all cultivars, however a decrease of C6 compounds was also observed. In free fraction an increase of terpenes was observed in all cultivars by ozone application. However, in bound fraction, terpenes, C13-norisoprenoids and esters showed an increase in Godello (2021) and Blanco lexítimo (2022). Free and bound C6 compounds decreased in all cultivars in 2022 vintage.

Genotype-environment interaction of three cultivars of vitis vinifera L. cultivated in two different environments of the Ischia island: effect on production and quality; aspects of the quality of the obtained wines

Pendant une période de trois années le comportement productif et qualitatif de trois cépages tous indigènes de la région de Campania (Italie méridionale) dans deux terroirs de l’île d’Ischia a été étudié; ceci pour obtenir quelques indications préliminaires sur le comportement productif et qualitatif des cépages et sur la qualité des vins.

Chemistry and analysis of key volatile compounds of wine and their precursors in grape

A relatively small number of the many volatile substances of wine, often present at trace
concentrations, are considered as key volatile compounds. These compounds often exist in grapes
under poorly odoriferous or non volatile forms as aroma precursors.

Aptitude du cépage Chenin à l’élaboration de vins liquoreux en relation avec certaines unités terroirs de base de A.O.C. Coteaux du Layon

Massif and the first sedimentary formations of the western aureole of the Paris Basin. If it is found all over the world (California, Israel, South Africa), it is in this region that it best asserts its identity. It is one of the most interesting grape varieties due to the variety and complexity of the wines it can produce. It can give very dry or very sweet, still or sparkling wines, fresh when young and sublime when ageing, expressing the characteristics of each vintage as much as those of the terroir. The Chenin is a faithful witness of its geographical, geological, pedological and climatic environment; he is the foil of the land. It has strong aptitudes for the production of sweet wines conditioned by overripe grapes often botrytised in the AOC Coteaux du Layon.Massif and the first sedimentary formations of the western aureole of the Paris Basin.
