Development of a standardized method for metabolite analysis by NMR to assess wine authenticity

Abstract

The wine sector generates a considerable amount of wealth but is facing a perpetual problem of fraud. Wine counterfeiting is one of the oldest and most common cases of food fraud worldwide. Therefore, the authenticity and traceability of wine are major concerns for both industry and consumers. To address these issues, robust and reliable analysis and control methods are necessary. Several methods have been developed, ranging from simple organoleptic tests to more advanced methodologies such as isotopic techniques or residual radioactivity measurements. However, with counterfeiting becoming increasingly sophisticated, more complex methodologies are needed for their detection. In this context, innovative tools for the analysis of metabolites and other small organic molecules can offer new perspectives for ensuring wine authenticity. In this work, we propose the development and validation of an open metabolomic approach based on 1H NMR to assess wine authenticity, using standardized, flexible, and accessible analytical and data processing protocols. Additionally, combinatorial approaches using orthogonal techniques e.g. NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and data fusion are presented. These efforts represent a significant advancement towards establishing a standardized and open methodology for certifying wine authenticity using 1H NMR metabolomics and establish new metabolomic approaches for wine authentication and quality control.

Desarrollo de un método estandarizado mediante análisis metabolómico RMN para garantizar la autenticidad del vino

El sector vitivinícola genera una cantidad considerable de riqueza pero enfrenta un problema creciente de fraude. La falsificación de vinos es uno de los casos más antiguos y comunes de fraude alimentario en todo el mundo. Por lo tanto, la autenticidad y trazabilidad del vino son preocupaciones importantes tanto para la industria como para los consumidores. Para abordar estos problemas, son necesarios métodos de análisis y control robustos y confiables. Se han desarrollado varios métodos, que van desde simples pruebas organolépticas hasta metodologías más avanzadas como técnicas isotópicas o mediciones de radiactividad residual. Sin embargo, con la falsificación volviéndose cada vez más sofisticada, se necesitan metodologías más complejas para su detección. En este contexto, las aplicaciones innovadoras de herramientas metabolómicas pueden ofrecer nuevas perspectivas para garantizar la autenticidad del vino.  En este trabajo, proponemos el desarrollo y validación de un método metabolómico abierto basado en rmn 1h para garantizar la autenticidad del vino, utilizando protocolos estandarizados, flexibles y accesibles. Estos esfuerzos representan un avance significativo hacia el establecimiento de una metodología estandarizada y abierta para certificar la autenticidad del vino utilizando metabolómica de rmn 1h.  Además, se están explorando otros métodos, como la combinación de análisis por rmn, espectrometría de masas de alta resolución y fusión de datos. Este estudio abre el camino para nuevos métodos metabolómicos para la autenticación y el control de calidad del vino.

Développement d’une méthode standardisée par analyse métabolomique RMN pour garantir l’authenticité des vins

Le secteur viticole génère une grande quantité de richesse, mais doit faire face à un problème croissant de fraudes. La contrefaçon des vins est l’un des cas les plus anciens et les plus courants de fraude alimentaire dans le monde. Par conséquent, l’authenticité et la traçabilité du vin sont des enjeux majeurs pour la filière et les consommateurs. Pour répondre à ces enjeux, il est nécessaire de disposer de méthodes d’analyse et de contrôle robustes et fiables. Plusieurs méthodes ont été développées, allant de simples tests organoleptiques à des méthodologies plus avancées telles que les techniques isotopiques, ou les mesures de radioactivité résiduelle. Cependant, avec des contrefaçons devenant de plus en plus sophistiquées, des méthodologies plus complexes sont nécessaires pour leur détection. Dans ce contexte, des applications innovantes des outils de la métabolomique peuvent offrir de nouvelles perspectives pour assurer l’authenticité du vin.   Dans ce travail, nous proposons le développement et la validation d’une approche métabolomique ouverte basée sur la rmn 1h pour garantir l’authenticité du vin, en utilisant des protocoles standardisés flexibles et accessibles. Ces travaux représentent une avancée significative vers l’établissement d’une méthodologie normalisée et ouverte pour la certification de l’authenticité d’un vin en utilisant la métabolomique rmn 1h.   De plus, d’autres approches sont en cours d’exploration comme la combinaison des analyses par rmn, spectrométrie de masse à haute résolution et fusion de données. Cette étude ouvre la voie à de nouvelles approches métabolomiques pour l’authentification et le contrôle de la qualité du vin.

Les AOC : un frein ou un moteur à l’innovation ? Retour sur l’histoire économique, scientifique, sociale et technique des vins d’appellation au XXe siècle en France

At a time when the world’s winegrowing industry is having to adapt to a number of challenges, winegrowers are wondering about the consequent changes they will have to make (grape varieties, changes in vineyard and cellar techniques). For winegrowers and consumers alike, there is also the question of how these changes will affect the taste of their wines. This research, based on the study of numerous sources and archives from the 20th century, some of which have never been published before, aims to show that, in the recent past, the winegrowing world has shown incredible resilience in the face of crises, and that the taste and perception of fine wines has changed considerably in 100 years.

Training vineyards resilience to environmental variations by managing vine water use

The challenges of the century for viticulture relate to coping with climate change and the loss of biodiversity in a downturning socio-economic context. Now more than ever, the vine and wine industry needs to be resilient to maintain and ensure a future for its heritage. An innovation of capital importance, in line with recently published research, deals with developing new methods of training our inherited and newly planted vineyards to better withstand environmental variations such as drought and heatwaves but also unevenly distributed rains and temperatures.

Exploring the impact of grape pressing on must and wine composition

Pressing has a relevant impact on the characteristics of the must and subsequently on white wines produced [1]. Therefore, the adequate management of pressing can lead to the desired extraction of phenols and other grape compounds (i.e. Organic acids), aromas and their precursors, allowing the production of balanced wines [2]. This aspect is especially important to sparkling wine where the acidity and pH, and the content of phenols affect its longevity and the expected sensory character.

Grape overripening as an innovation strategy in response to climate change

Today’s viticulture is facing a new climatic scenario with temperature increases and rainfall deficits, generated by the effect of climate change. As a result of these new conditions, there are earlier harvests, increased plant water stress and higher disease risk in wetter wine-growing regions.

Exploring the genomic diversity of yeast involved in spontaneous fermentation. from studies to select autochthonous strains of different italian’s wineries to extensive phylogenetic survey about the italians’ population of s. cerevisiae

Modern winemakers must ensure effective alcoholic fermentation without losing the intrinsic biodiversity of the different oenological contexts. In this sense, the population of saccharomyces cerevisiae characteristic of wineries that traditionally do not use selected yeasts can represent an interesting reservoir of biodiversity.
