Saccharomyces cerevisiae intraspecies differentiation by metabolomic signature and sensory patterns in wine

Abstract

AIM: The composition and quality of wine are directly linked to microorganisms involved in the alcoholic fermentation. Several studies have been conducted on the impact of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on volatile compounds composition after fermentation. However, if different studies have dealt with combined sensory and volatiles analyses, few works have compared so far the impact of distinct yeast strains on the global metabolome of the wine.

METHODS: Twelve wines were obtained from fermentations of Chardonnay musts led by twelve different commercial wine yeast strains of S. cerevisiae. In order to establish a possible link between sensory profiles and metabolic signatures, Ultra High Resolution Mass Spectrometry analysis of non-volatile compounds and Gaz Chromatography coupled to Mass Spectrometry detection of volatile compounds, sensory analysis and chemometrics were used in combination.

RESULTS: Wines were clearly discriminated, according to non-volatile, volatile and sensory analyses, despite the similar fermentation kinetics. Three groups of wines, described by similar aromatic descriptors such as fruity, vegetable and apple, were highlighted by the sensory analyses. The profiles of wines from the different groups were characterized based on 35 volatile compounds belonging to esters, medium chain fatty acids, superior alcohols and terpenes. Finally, metabolomics analyses revealed a non volatile composition specific to each wine, with biomarkers specific to each wine yeast strain of S. cerevisiae.

CONCLUSIONS:

The final composition of the wine is intimately linked to the specific production of metabolites by each strains of S. cerevisiae. The combination of analytical and sensory analyses allowed us to discriminate and characterized wines from the twelve strains of S. cerevisiae.

Response of grapevine cv. “Tinta Roriz” (vitis vinifera L.) to moderate irrigation in the Douro region, Portugal

The behaviour of cv. “Tinta Roriz” (Vitis vinifera L.), was studied when moderate drip irrigation was applied from veraison to harvest. Field studies were conducted during three growing seasons

Impact of chitosan treatment on the physico-chemical features of a sangiovese red wine

Chitosan is gaining interest in red winemaking thanks to its ability to inhibit the development of Brettanomyces spp. yeast, or other undesired wine microbial threats. However, little is known about potential side-effects of its addition on the physico-chemical parameters of red wines.

Effect of supplementation with inactive yeast during alcoholic fermentation in base wine for sparkling

INTRODUCTION: Foam stability of sparkling wines is significantly favored by the presence of surface active agents such as proteins and polysaccharides [1]. For that reason, the renowned sparkling wines are aged after the second fermentation in contact with the lees for several months (even years). Thereby wines are enriched in these macromolecules due to yeast autolysis. Since this practice is slow and costly, winemakers are seeking for alternative procedures to increase their concentration in base wines. In that sense, the supplementation with inactive yeast during alcoholic fermentation has been proposed [2]. The aim of this study was to determine whether this new strategy is really useful for enriching base wines in macromolecules and for improving foam properties of the base wines.

Effect of one-year cover crop and arbuscular mycorrhiza inocululation in the microbial soil community of a vineyard

The microbial composition of the soil is an important factor to consider in viticulture, since its influence on the “terroir” and on the organoleptic properties of the wine have been demonstrated. Different agronomic techniques have the potential to modify the composition and functionality of the soil microbial community. Maintaining green covers is known to increase soil microbial diversity. The direct application of inoculum of beneficial microorganisms to the soil has also been used to increase their abundance. However, the environmental conditions of each site seem to have a determining weight in the result of these practices. In this study, we compared the effect on the microbial community of a cover crop with legumes in autumn and the inoculation of grapevines with commercial inoculum bases on Rhizophagus irregularis and Funeliformis mosseae in the previous spring. The study has been carried out in a vineyard in Binissalem, Mallorca, Spain. After applying the treatments, we will analyze the soil microbial communities using the data obtained from Illumina amplification of soil DNA from the 16S and ITS regions to analyze bacteria and fungi community, respectively. In addition, we will record the physicochemical characteristics of the soil at each sampling point. The result showed that agronomic management, in the short term, has less influence than soil characteristics on the composition of the soil microbiome. With these results, we can conclude that in a vineyard, agricultural techniques should focus on improving the characteristics of the soil to improve the biodiversity of the soil microbiota.
