Influenza delle componenti climatiche e pedologiche sulla variabilità dei contenuti polifenolici in alcuni ambienti vitati della DOCG Sagrantino di Montefalco

Abstract

Obiettivo del progetto è la valutazione dell’influenza climatica e pedologica dell’areale di Montefalco sul vitigno Sagrantino, ponendo particolare attenzione alla componente polifenolica e antocianica. Sono stati quindi messi a confronto, a partire dal 2001 fino al 2008, sei differenti zone tutte situate all’interno dell’areale DOCG Sagrantino di Montefalco; per ciascun vigneto alla vendemmia sono state effettuate analisi sui parametri analitici e sul contenuto polifenolico e antocianico delle uve. Ognuna delle sei zone è inoltre stata caratterizzata dal punto di vista pedoclimatico, valutando l’influenza del clima e della tipologia di suolo sui parametri analitici presi in considerazione.

English version: The reason of the present project is the evaluation of climatic and pedologic influence of the Montefalco area on the cultivar Sagrantino, with particular attention to the anthocyanic and polyphenolic components. Six different vineyards, localized in the DOGC “Sagrantino di Montefalco” area, were under observation from 2001 to 2008; for each vineyard, analysis of analytical parameter and polyphenolic and anthocyanic content of grapes were done at the vintage. All areas have been also characterized for pedoclimatic aspects, studying the relationship between clima and soil together with analytical parameters.

ENRICHMENT OF THE OENOLOGICAL MALDI-TOF/MS PROTEIN SPECTRA DATABASE FOR RELIABLE OENOLOGICAL YEAST AND BACTERIA IDENTIFICATION

The Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization–Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) technology is commonly used in food and medical sector to identify yeast or bacteria species isolated from a nutritive culture media. Since a decade, brewery and oenology industries have been attracted to this method which combines fast analysis times, reliability and low cost of analysis. Briefly, this method is based on the comparison of the MALDI-TOF/MS protein spectra of an isolated colony of yeast or bacteria with those contain in a manufacturer’s reference protein spectra database. Initiated in 2015, the creation of the first oenological mass spectra database has proved to be essential for increase quality of species identification.

Evolution and sensory contribution of ethyl acetate in sweet wines

Ethyl acetate (EtOAc) is the main ester present in all wines, generally produced by yeasts during alcoholic fermentation and sometimes by bacteria during barrel ageing. Its odor is characterized by solvent notes, which give wines their acescent note [1].

Highlighting the several chemical situations of Dimethyl sulfide in wine

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is a compound that accumulate in wine for the early years of ageing 1. During this stage, which is often carried out in the bottle, the environmental conditions are conducive to the release of DMS from its precursors, already present in grapes2

Enological technics to enhance the aromatic qualities of white spirits 

Eugenol has been identified as a quality marker in armagnac white spirits. In particular, those produced from the Baco blanc variety, the only hybrid variety authorised in a French PDO, bred since 1898 from noah (vitis labrusca x v.riparia) and folle blanche (v. Vinifera). The varietal compound of Baco blanc, eugenol has many original properties.
