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.

Exploring the dynamic between yeast mannoproteins structure and wine stability

Mannoproteins are macromolecules found on the surface of yeast cells, composed of hyperbranched polysaccharide negatively charged chains by mannosyl-phosphate groups, fixed to a protein core. during the alcoholic fermentation and aging on lees, these mannoproteins are released from the yeast cell wall and become the main yeast-sourced polysaccharide in wine. due to their techno-functional properties, commercial preparations of mannoproteins can be used as additives to better assure tartaric and protein stability.

Multi-mineral wine profiling and Artificial Intelligence: Implementing the signatures of each wine to train algorithms to meet the new challenges facing the wine industry

Multi-mineral wine profiling and artificial intelligence: implementing the signatures of each wine to train algorithms to meet the new challenges facing the wine industry. Although their quantity is minimal, minerals are essential elements in the composition of every wine. Their presence is the result of complex interactions between factors such as soil, vines, climate, topography, and viticultural practices, all influenced by the terroir. Each stage of the winemaking process also contributes to shaping the unique mineral and taste profile of each wine, giving each cuvée its distinctive characteristics.

Pharmacological basis of the J-shaped curve in biological effects of wine

The classical pharmacological model assumes that the effect of a drug is proportional to the fraction of receptors occupied by the drug. In the simplest circumstances, the relationship between dose of a drug and response, when plotted on a logarithmic scale for drug concentration, is described by a sigmoidal curve. It presumes the existence of a threshold dose, below which no biological effect appears, and a maximal response in the form of a plateau, when a further increase in the dose of drug has no effect.

French wine sector facing climate change (part. 2) : the implementation of the national strategy

This summary follows this made by Hervé Hannin et al. Entitled “French wine sector facing climate change (part. 1) : a national strategy built on a foresight and participatory approach “. The french wine sector has taken a collective approach to the issue of climate change, and has officially submitted its strategy to the minister of agriculture in 2021. This industry policy is the result of multidisciplinary work carried out through the “laccave” project (metaprogramme accaf, inrae) and its prospective study designed to anticipate climate change in the french wine industry (aigrain p. Et al., 2016). French wine professionals decided to structure a strategy to deal with climate change du in particular to the presentation made at the 2016 OIV congress in Brazil.

Vitiforestry as innovative heritage. Adaptive conservation of historical wine-growing landscapes as response to XXI century’s challenges.

Traditional agricultural and agro-pastoral systems (prior to industrial revolution) often have the characteristic of being multiple systems, in which multiple crops are hosted simultaneously on the same plot. currently research suggests to study more in depth the potential of multiple agricultural systems in order to detect those characteristics of multiple agrarian systems that could allow modern viticulture to adapt to the challenges posed by climate change: rising temperatures with impacts on the phenological cycle of the vine, resurgence of plant deseases, extreme soil washout phenomena and hail storms, among others.
