Effect of different plant fibers on the elimination of undesirable compounds in red wine 

Abstract

The presence of undesirable compounds in wines, such as ota, biogenic amines and pesticides residues, affects wine quality and can cause health problems for the consumer. Additionally, an excess of tannins can produce an undesirable increase in the astringency and bitterness of the wine, so tannins are also a target for reduction. The main tool that a winemaker has to reduce their content in the wine is fining. However, some of the fining agents commonly used in the winery can cause allergies or even increase the protein content in the wine, increasing the turbidity. To avoid these problems, the use of plant fibers may be an alternative, such as those from grape pomace. The objective of this work was to determine the effect of nine different plant fibers from different grape varieties in the reduction of undesirable compounds and in the chromatic profile of a young red wine. A fining trial was conducted with all the fibers at the maximum concentration allowed by oiv in a wine previously fortificated with histamine, ota and several pesticides and also, a commercial plant fiber from unknown origin was used for comparison. After 48 h of contact, wine chromatic parameters and phenolic compound content were measured, along with the concentration of the undesirable compounds. The results obtained showed that some pomace fibers were able to effectively reduce histamine, ota, pesticides, and tannins, affecting minimally the wine color, while the commercial plant fiber showed the highest reduction of ota and pesticides, but also produced the greatest loss of color in the wine. For that, grape fiber can be a very good alternative for obtaining safer and high quality red wines.

Effet de différentes fibres végétales sur l’élimination des composés indésirables dans le vin rouge

La présence de composés indésirables dans les vins, tels que l’ota, les amines biogènes et les résidus de pesticides, affecte la qualité du vin et peut entraîner des problèmes de santé pour le consommateur. En outre, un excès de tanins peut entraîner une augmentation indésirable de l’astringence et de l’amertume du vin, c’est pourquoi les tanins sont également un objectif de réduction. Le principal outil dont dispose le vinificateur pour réduire leur teneur dans le vin est le collage. Cependant, certains des agents de collage couramment utilisés dans les caves peuvent provoquer des allergies ou même augmenter la teneur en protéines du vin, ce qui accroît sa turbidité. Pour éviter ces problèmes, l’utilisation de fibres végétales peut être une alternative, comme celles issues du marc de raisin. L’objectif de ce travail était de déterminer l’effet de neuf fibres végétales provenant de différents cépages sur la réduction des composés indésirables et sur le profil chromatique d’un jeune vin rouge. Un essai de collage a été réalisé avec toutes les fibres à la concentration maximale autorisée par l’oiv dans un vin préalablement fortifié avec de l’histamine, de l’ota et plusieurs pesticides ; une fibre végétale commerciale d’origine inconnue a également été utilisée à titre de comparaison. Après 48 heures de contact, les paramètres chromatiques du vin et la teneur en composés phénoliques ont été mesurés, ainsi que la concentration des composés indésirables. Les résultats obtenus ont montré que certaines fibres de grignons étaient capables de réduire efficacement l’histamine, l’ota, les pesticides et les tanins, en affectant peu la couleur du vin, tandis que la fibre végétale commerciale a montré la plus forte réduction de l’ota et des pesticides, mais a également produit la plus grande perte de couleur dans le vin. Pour cette raison, la fibre de raisin peut être une très bonne alternative pour obtenir des vins rouges plus sûrs et de haute qualité.

Efecto de diferentes fibras vegetales en la eliminación de compuestos indeseables en vino tinto

La presencia de compuestos indeseables en los vinos, como ota, aminas biógenas y residuos de pesticidas, afecta a la calidad del vino y puede causar problemas de salud al consumidor. Además, un exceso de taninos puede producir un aumento indeseable de la astringencia y el amargor del vino, por lo que los taninos también pueden ser un objetivo a reducir. La principal herramienta de que dispone un enólogo para reducir su contenido en el vino es la clarificación. Sin embargo, algunos de los agentes clarificantes utilizados habitualmente en bodega pueden provocar alergias o incluso aumentar el contenido de proteínas en el vino, incrementando la turbidez. Para evitar estos problemas, el uso de fibras vegetales puede ser una alternativa, como las procedentes del orujo de uva. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar el efecto de nueve fibras vegetales diferentes procedentes de distintas variedades de uva en la reducción de compuestos indeseables y en el perfil cromático de un vino tinto joven. Se realizó un ensayo de clarificación con todas las fibras a la concentración máxima permitida por la oiv en un vino previamente fortificado con histamina, ota y varios pesticidas y, además, se utilizó una fibra vegetal comercial de origen desconocido para comparar. Tras 48 h de contacto, se midieron los parámetros cromáticos del vino y el contenido en compuestos fenólicos, así como la concentración de los compuestos indeseables. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que algunas fibras de orujo fueron capaces de reducir eficazmente la histamina, la ota, los pesticidas y los taninos, afectando mínimamente al color del vino, mientras que la fibra vegetal comercial mostró la mayor reducción de ota y pesticidas, pero también produjo la mayor pérdida de color en el vino. Por tanto, la fibra de uva puede ser una muy buena alternativa para obtener vinos tintos más seguros y de alta calidad.

Correlation between stable isotopic composition of the fungus aspergillus niger and its growth substrate and the extracted chitin

Wine is one of the most consumed and appreciated beverages in the world. Due to the growing attention paid to consumer health, there is a continuous search for sustainable alternatives to common additives (such as sulfur dioxide) used to preserve wine. An example is represented by chitosan, the main derivative of chitin, approved for the treatment of must and wine since 2009 by the “international organization of vine and wine” (OIV/OENO 338a/2009) and by the european commission (EC Reg. No. 606/2009).

Inactivated yeasts: a case study for the future of precision enology

Yeasts serve as highly versatile tools in oenology. They do more than just perform alcoholic fermentation. Nowadays, yeasts from various species, naturally present in grapes, are selected for specific non-fermentative applications. For example, the use of selected non-saccharomyces at the early stage of winemaking has become a common practice to limit the growth of unwanted microorganisms. When inactivated, yeasts can be fractionated into soluble and insoluble fractions providing a wide range of benefits related to structural components or specific metabolites.

Characterization of Cabernet Sauvignon from Maipo valley (Chile) using fluorescence measurement

Viral diseases are a significant cause of both decreased grape quality and vineyard production. Important agents include grapevine leafroll-associated virus (glravs) and grapevine rupestris stem pitting-associated virus (grspav). However, conducting phytosanitary analysis of vineyards for viruses on-site is challenging, and molecular testing is generally expensive.

Direct SPME GC-MS determination of volatile congeners in wines without sample pre-treatment

In this work “ethanol as an internal standard” method was used for the SPME GC-MS quantification of volatile congeners in wines. Our aim was to develop a fast and simple method of wine analysis without additional procedures, reagents etc. A row of standard solutions containing some frequently found congeners in wine was prepared gravimetrically. Suggested method was compared with traditional internal standard method.

Genetic traceability of the varietal origin of wines: a robust application for must and wines during alcoholic fermentation

Industry and regulatory agencies have developed regulations to ensure authenticity and compliance with wine composition limits. However, this can be truncated by the absence of simple and robust analytical methodologies, uninfluenced by the environment, different oenological techniques and cultural practices. Genetic fingerprinting is the most powerful tool for unequivocal varietal identification; it is not affected by the environment or agronomic practices; however, its usefulness in musts and wines has been controversial and there is currently no routine certification of varietal origin based on DNA analysis.
