Application of cyclic voltammetry to the classification of enological tannins in relationship to oxygen consumption rate and botanical origin 

Abstract

Enological tannins are a diversified group of winemaking products that vary in several aspects such as chemical composition, botanical origin, and production method. In consideration of their richness in phenolic compounds, one of their main application in vinification is related to their antioxidant capacity, in particular their ability to consume oxygen during red wine maturation. Given the great diversity of compositional features of commercial tannins, there is a generalized interest towards the development of analytical approaches that can assist in correct classification of their chemical family (condensed or hydrolizable tannins), botanical origin (oak, grape skin, grape seeds, etc) as well as of enological properties such as oxygen consumption rate (ocr). Cyclic voltammetry (cv) has been previously proposed as a rapid and effective method for the analysis of phenolic compounds, although to date its applications to tannin analysis are limited. In the present study, ocr of 45 (14 from oak, 15 from grape and 15 from nut gall) commercial enological tannins was determined in red wine, whereas electrochemical features of the same samples were acquired using a cv method discriminant analysis was used for data analysis, allowing to identify the electrochemical features that characterized the three groups of tannins. Moreover, using machine learning models such as support vector machine (svm), it was found that the botanical origin of the tannins could be predicted with high accuracy based on their voltammograms. Indeed, the svm showed very highly performance on both the training set and the validation set (100% in both cases). Regarding ocr, the halving time of oxygen was chosen as the reference parameter. Here too, the svm demonstrated very high accuracy in ocr. The results indicate that cyclic voltammetry has the potential to discriminate between different types of enological tannins and to provide insights into their ability to consume dissolved oxygen.

Applicazione della voltammetria ciclica alla classificazione dei tannini enologici in relazione al tasso di consumo di ossigeno e all’origine botanica

I tannini enologici sono un gruppo diversificato di prodotti enologici che variano per diversi aspetti, come la composizione chimica, l’origine botanica e il metodo di produzione. In considerazione della loro ricchezza in composti fenolici, una delle loro principali applicazioni nella vinificazione è legata alla loro capacità antiossidante, in particolare alla loro capacità di consumare l’ossigeno durante la maturazione del vino rosso. Data la grande diversità delle caratteristiche compositive dei tannini commerciali, c’è un interesse generalizzato verso lo sviluppo di approcci analitici che possano aiutare a classificare correttamente la loro famiglia chimica (tannini condensati o idrolizzabili), l’origine botanica (quercia, buccia d’uva, semi d’uva, ecc.) E le proprietà enologiche come il tasso di consumo di ossigeno (ocr). La voltammetria ciclica (cv) è stata precedentemente proposta come metodo rapido ed efficace per l’analisi dei composti fenolici, anche se ad oggi le sue applicazioni all’analisi dei tannini sono limitate. Nel presente studio, l’ocr di 45 tannini enologici commerciali (14 da quercia, 15 da uva e 15 di galla) è stato determinato nel vino rosso, mentre le caratteristiche elettrochimiche degli stessi campioni sono state acquisite utilizzando un metodo cv per l’analisi dei dati è stata utilizzata l’analisi discriminante, che ha permesso di identificare le caratteristiche elettrochimiche che hanno caratterizzato i tre gruppi di tannini. Inoltre, utilizzando modelli di machine learning come la support vector machine (svm), si è riscontrato che l’origine botanica dei tannini poteva essere prevista con elevata accuratezza sulla base dei loro voltammogrammi. Infatti, la svm ha mostrato ottime  sia sul set di addestramento che su quello di validazione (100% in entrambi i casi). Per quanto riguarda l’ocr, è stato scelto come parametro di riferimento il tempo di dimezzamento dell’ossigeno. Anche in questo caso, la svm ha dimostrato un’accuratezza molto elevata nell’ocr. I risultati indicano che la voltammetria ciclica ha il potenziale di discriminare tra diversi tipi di tannini enologici e di fornire indicazioni sulla loro capacità di consumare ossigeno disciolto.

Application de la voltampérométrie cyclique à la classification des tanins œnologiques en fonction du taux de consommation d’oxygène et de l’origine botanique

Les tanins œnologiques constituent un groupe diversifié de produits vinicoles qui varient sous plusieurs aspects tels que la composition chimique, l’origine botanique et la méthode de production. Compte tenu de leur richesse en composés phénoliques, l’une de leurs principales applications en vinification est liée à leur capacité antioxydante, en particulier leur capacité à consommer de l’oxygène pendant la maturation du vin rouge. Etant donné la grande diversité des caractéristiques de composition des tanins commerciaux, il existe un intérêt généralisé pour le développement d’approches analytiques qui peuvent aider à une classification correcte de leur famille chimique (tanins condensés ou hydrolysables), de leur origine botanique (chêne, peau de raisin, pépins de raisin, etc.) Ainsi que de leurs propriétés œnologiques telles que le taux de consommation d’oxygène (ocr). La voltampérométrie cyclique (cv) a déjà été proposée comme une méthode rapide et efficace pour l’analyse des composés phénoliques, bien que ses applications à l’analyse des tanins soient limitées à ce jour. Dans la présente étude, la roc de 45 (14 de chêne, 15 de raisin et 15 de noix de galle) tanins œnologiques commerciaux a été déterminée dans le vin rouge, tandis que les caractéristiques électrochimiques des mêmes échantillons ont été acquises à l’aide d’une méthode cv l’analyse discriminante a été utilisée pour l’analyse des données, permettant d’identifier les caractéristiques électrochimiques qui caractérisent les trois groupes de tanins.en outre, l’utilisation de modèles d’apprentissage automatique tels que le support vector machine (svm) a permis de constater que l’origine botanique des tannins pouvait être prédite avec une grande précision sur la base de leurs voltammogrammes.en effet, le svm a montré des performances très élevées à la fois sur l’ensemble d’entraînement et sur l’ensemble de validation (100 % dans les deux cas). En ce qui concerne la roc, le temps de réduction de moitié de l’oxygène a été choisi comme paramètre de référence. Ici aussi, le svm a fait preuve d’une très grande précision dans la roc. Les résultats indiquent que la voltampérométrie cyclique a le potentiel de discriminer les différents types de tanins œnologiques et de fournir des informations sur leur capacité à consommer de l’oxygène dissous.

Yeasts protein extracts: new low impact tool for wine protein stability

Yeast protein extracts (ypes) have flocculating properties, allowing clarification of musts and wines. They are already authorized by oiv for fining purposes with a maximum dosage limit of 60 g/hl for red wines, and 30 g/hl for musts, white and rosè wines. The extraction of ypes from the cytoplasm of yeasts (saccharomyces spp) cells is defined by the resolution oiv oeno 452-2012, that indicate also some specification of the final product.

Towards a European data basis based of advanced multi-isotopic signatures and artificial intelligence: the wine in blue project

Major and trace elements are essential for the development of grapes used for the wine. They are primarily originating from the soil. Some elements are also seldomly added during the wine making process. Therefore, the largest spectrum of major, trace and ultra-trace elements in the final wine product is a good signature of its geographical origin. In the frame of the European tracewindu, we have developed a very original multi-isotopic dilution method using triple quadrupole icp/ms.

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.

Plastic cover film on table grapes from field to cold storage

Plastic film covering is a technique largely used in viticulture to protect table grapes vines from adverse weather conditions and to reduce the negative effects of grapevine fungi disease. Plastic film composition affects solar radiation income inside the covering with effects on sunlight wavelengths in relation to different absorbance and reflectance. The interaction of selected light ranges with vines could influence grape ripening and yield and consequently influence shelf life.

Shading nets for the adaptation to climate change: effect on vine physiology and grape quality 

Viticulture is threatened by the environmental modification caused by climate change. Higher temperatures determine an acceleration of the ripening process, which can be detrimental to wine quality. In the mediterranean area, heat waves are also increasingly frequent, with consequent blocking of the vegetative activity of the vines and increased susceptibility to sunburn damage. thus, adaptation strategies are necessary to reduce stress and improve the quality of grape production. Amongst the various techniques available, shading nets represent an interesting alternative for their effects on canopy microclimate (i.e., reduction of photosynthetic activity, improvement of water use efficiency, and slowing down in the ripening process).
