Ozone to improve the implantation of Lachancea thermotolerans for improving pH in warm areas in wines with low SO2 levels

Abstract

One of the most powerful biotechnologies for lowering pH in wines from warm zones and in high pH varieties is the use of the non-Saccharomyces Lachancea thermotolerans yeast. This species is capable of producing lactic acid from sugars while slightly reducing the alcohol content, which therefore ameliorates two of the main problems of wines from regions affected by global warming. Lactic acid is an organic acid with good sensory integration in wine flavor, and also chemically and biologically stable during wine aging. The use of L. thermotolerans can help reduce the pH from 4.0, a value that is common in the Tempranillo variety in many regions of Spain, to 3.4-3.6 which is a safe value to keep wines fresher and more stable during barrel aging. In addition, depending on the strain, the use of L. thermotolerans can improve the sensory profile of the wine by producing esters and other aromatic compounds. The use of ozonated water to clean and sanitize grapes is a very interesting strategy to eliminate competitive wild yeasts while reducing the use of SO2. The objective of this research is to show the effect of ozonated water in the use of sequential fermentations with L. thermotolerans to acidify Tempranillo wines in the absence of SO2.

Ozono para mejorar la implantación de lachancea thermotolerans y disminuir/corregir el ph en vinos con bajos niveles de so2 de zonas cálidas

Una de las biotecnologías más potentes para disminuir el ph en vinos de zonas cálidas y en variedades de ph elevado es el uso de la levadura no-saccharomyces lachancea thermotolerans. Esta especie es capaz de formar ácido láctico a partir de azúcares, reduciendo al mismo tiempo ligeramente el grado alcohólico. Por lo tanto, mejora dos de los principales problemas de los vinos de regiones afectadas por el calentamiento global. El ácido láctico es un ácido orgánico con una buena integración sensorial en el sabor del vino, y también química y biológicamente estable durante el envejecimiento del vino. El uso de l. Thermotolerans puede ayudar a reducir el ph de 4,0 (un valor que es común en la variedad tempranillo en muchas regiones de españa) a 3,4-3,6 que es un valor seguro para mantener los vinos más frescos y estables durante el envejecimiento en barrica. Además, dependiendo de la cepa, el uso de l. Thermotolerans puede mejorar el perfil sensorial del vino mediante la producción de ésteres y otros compuestos aromáticos. El principal problema con l. Thermotolerans es la implantación, especialmente en vinos tintos, en los que las levaduras salvajes de los hollejos pueden ser fuertemente competitivas evitando un buen desarrollo y acidificación. Además, l. Thermotolerans es muy sensible al so2. El uso de agua ozonizada para limpiar e higienizar la uva es una estrategia muy interesante para eliminar las levaduras silvestres competitivas al tiempo que se reduce el uso de so2. El objetivo de esta investigación es mostrar el efecto del agua ozonizada en el uso de fermentaciones secuenciales con l. Thermotolerans para acidificar vinos tempranillo en ausencia de SO2.

Evaluation of intravarietal variability and selection for tolerance to downy mildew: The case of Antão Vaz variety in Portugal 

Antão Vaz is a Portuguese white grapevine variety grown mainly in the wine-growing regions of Southern Portugal, particularly in the Alentejo, Lisbon and Setúbal peninsula regions. It is a very vigorous and productive variety, giving the wines a strong identity. It needs heat and sunlight and prefers deep and dry soils, which makes it tolerant to scald caused by the high summer temperatures of Southern Portugal. However, this variety is very susceptible to downy mildew, caused by plasmopara viticola, a very destructive disease in years with rainy springs.

Exploring the impact of yeast derivatives on aromatic and sensory profiles of white and red wines: a multifactorial analysis

Specific inactivated yeast derivatives (SYDS) are obtained from s. cerevisiae yeasts by various processes (thermal, mechanical, and enzymatic) and have diverse oenological applications to improve wine quality. However, different impacts on wine sensory and aromas were reported, depending on syds types and fractions, wine matrices, and experimental settings. Few works have examined the impact of SYDS on aromas considering also those on wine macromolecules influencing organoleptic properties.

Assessing the feasibility of direct injection for pesticide residue analysis in grape juice by liquid chromatography/triple quadrupole mass spectrometry

In Brazil, the regulation of pesticide residues is guided by the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA), emphasizing the importance of monitoring pesticide levels in agricultural products to protect consumer health.

Étude de la cinétique de transfert du 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (TCA) entre des bouchons en liège naturel et le vin – premiers résultats

The last step in winemaking is packaging the wines for market placement, while preserving the quality attained during vinification. Since the 1980s, 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (TCA) has been recognised as an incidental and random contaminant of cork, with its migration into wine thought to contribute to ‘cork taint’. This molecule is not a cork component and little is known about how it is formed on trees. Its formation from the chlorine used to wash the cork stoppers, long suspected, has been excluded by the abandonment of chlorine washing.

Multi-trait selection in ancient grapevine varieties

The selection of ancient grapevine varieties aims to achieve genetic gains in several important traits that can make the variety more interesting for the objectives of the producers. Traditionally, yield and quality traits of the must have been considered for selection, but many others can be taken into account. Linear mixed models are fitted to the data to predict the empirical best linear unbiased predictors (EBLUPs) of genotypic effects for each evaluated trait, which will be the basis for selection.
