Proanthocyanin composition in new varieties from monastrell

Abstract

AIM: Proanthocyanidins are responsible in an important way for positive aspects in wines, such as body and color stability in red wines, but they are also responsible for sensory characteristics that can be negative for their quality when found in excessive concentrations. In an effort of increasing our understanding of crosses from Monastrell, it has been studied their proanthocyanidin composition during three seasons. Besides, it is important the idea of registering new varieties of red grapes from Monastrell adapted to the new climatic scenario produced in the South East of Spain, with an excellent polyphenolic capacity.

METHODS: A quantitative analysis was carried out during three seasons (2018, 2019 and 2020) in order to study and compare the obtained concentration of proanthocyanidins in Monastrell and the new varieties MC80 (Monastrell x Cabernet-Sauvignon), MC98, MS10 (Monastrell x Syrah), MC4 and MC18. The analysis was carried out in grapes as well as in the final of alcoholic fermentation in order to study its extraction capacity. The analyzes were performed and quantified following the fluoroglycinolysis method.

RESULTS: In general, the results showed higher concentrations in tannins in the most hybrids of Monastrell for the three seasons studied.Furthermore, a higher concentration of epigallocatechin was found in most of the hybrid wines elaborated, being positive from an organoleptic point of view, since this compound provides softness to the wines. However, MC4 is characterized by its low concentration of this compound although these values could be normal since the concentration of tannins in this variety is much lower with respect to the other hybrids. Another of the compounds of interest analyzed was epicatequinogalate, this compound was also found in higher concentrations in hybrids analysed than in Monastrell variety.Finally, It should be noted that the relationship between the average degree of polymerization of the tannins and the percentage of gallolation was much higher in the seeds than in the elaborated wines or in the skins.

CONCLUSIONS

These new varieties ensuring its incredible polyphenolic concentration showing a great potential as new varieties adapted to the dry and hot conditions produced in the south east of Spain

White grape juice consumption reduce muscle damage parameters in combat athletes

Introduction and objective: the practice of physical exercises in an exhaustive way is related to damage. Muay thai (mt) is a high-intensity sport that demands agility, strength and power, which can lead to fatigue and muscle damage. Grape juice is rich in carbohydrates and antioxidants, which can delay the onset of fatigue and muscle damage. The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of white grape juice consumption, during 14 days, on muscle damage parameters in tm athletes.

Wines produces without SO2 addition: which impact on their colour? An approach at the global and pigments levels

Since the 18th century, sulfur dioxide (SO2) is used in winemaking. Added at different steps, its antimicrobial but also antioxidasic and antioxidant properties are very helpful for winemakers. Nevertheless sulfur dioxide has a real potential health impact, particularly for sensitive consumers often highlighted by hygienists. Nowadays, a serious trend for “natural” wines (i.e. produced without any additives), as described by their producers, could be observed on the French market what match with a proliferation of wines elaborated without any sulfite addition.

Influence of temperature and light on vegetative growth and bud fruitfulness of grapevine cv. Semillon

Aim: To investigate the effects of different levels of temperature and light intensity on grapevine vegetative growth and bud fruitfulness, which includes the number and size of inflorescence primordia in primary buds.

Identification of several glycosidic aroma precursors in six varieties of winemaking grapes and assessment of their aroma potential by acid hydrolysis

In winemaking grapes, it is known that most aroma compounds are present as non-volatile precursors, such as glycosidic precursors. In fact, there is strong evidence supporting the connection between the content of aroma precursors and the aromatic quality of wine [1]. Acid hydrolysis is preferred to reveal the aroma potential of winemaking grapes, as it predicts more accurately the chemical rearrangements occurring during fermentation in acidic environments [2]. In this study, a method involving a fast fermentation followed by acid hydrolysis at 75ºC was used to evaluate the accumulation of aroma compounds over time in fractions obtained from six different varieties of winemaking grapes.

The Gibberellic-Acid Insensitive gene Vvgai1 impacts both vegetative growth and organogenesis rate in Vitis labruscana

Context and purpose of the study. As other perennial crops grapevine is facing the challenges of climate changes. One of the major issues is global warming and variations of the water budget.
