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.

The influence of RNAi-expressing rootstocks in controlling grey mold on grapevine cultivars

Worldwide, with an average of 6.7 million cultivated hectares, of which exclusively 51% in Europe (faostat, 2021), the production of table and wine grapes is a leading sector, with continued growth in Europe in the area devoted to vine cultivation. during the growing season, most of the plant organs can be susceptible to several fungal and oomycete diseases, leading to important economic losses and causing detrimental effects on fruit quality. the increasingly scarce availability of fungicidal products, often also related to their relative impact on the environment, coupled with the emergence of resistance in the pathogen to these products, make defence increasingly challenging.

An effective approach to mitigating ochratoxin A (OTA) levels in wine with minor impact on wine quality

OTA occurrence in wine is well-documented, with higher levels typically found in red (< 0.01-7.63 μg/l), followed by rose (0.01-2.40 μg/l) and white wine (<0.01-1.72 μg/l). Incidence rates are nOTAble, with studies showing OTA present in 53% of 521 red wines, 69% of 98 rose, and 61% of 301 white wines analysed. In europe, wine is estimated to be the second source of OTA intake after cereals. Since 2006, the maximum allowable limit for OTA in wine is 2 μg/l, according to regulation (ec) no. 1881/2006.

Actual challenges and the need to produce alternative products from red grapes rich in phenols and antioxidants

The global consumption of wine has undergone significant changes after several years of covid-19, which was the beginning of a global crisis of the current century. This pushed some people to start looking for comfort and security as they felt that the world around them was losing these benefits. In most cases, this has led to them to idea of rethinking their lives in an attempt to live better or continuing to stay true to their habits and lifestyles despite the pressure of changes. Alcohol in any form is a part of these reactions, leading to increased consumption in the early stages of a crisis, particularly in relation to anxiety.

Pesticide – Free viticulture: towards agroecological wine-producing socio-ecosystems

Can we cultivate grapevine without pesticides? This is a huge challenge for this emblematic crop, which is one of the largest users of plant protection products. Pesticides are mainly used to protect the vine against leaf diseases (powdery mildew, mildew, black-rot), even in organic farming, which uses copper in particular. What are the research avenues that can help eliminate pesticides today?
