Effect of grape polysaccharides on the volatile composition and aromatic profile of Viura wines

Abstract

AIM: Many research studies have analyzed the effect of polysaccharides in the aromatic composition of white wines. However, it has been limited to yeast polysaccharides and commercial mannoproteins [1,2]. The aim of this research was to study the use of grape polysaccharides as finning agents and analyze their effect on the volatile composition and aromatic profile of Viura wines.

METHODS: Different fractions of grape polysaccharides were tested: polysaccharides extracted from white must (WM), red must (RM), red wine (RW), white grape skins (WGS), red grape skins (RGS), and lees from white wine (WL). A fraction of rhamnogalacturonan type II of 80% purity (RGII80%), and rhamnogalacturonan type II of 55% purity (RGII55%) were also tested. The different fractions were added as fining agents in Viura wines at bottling. Results were compared with controls and with commercial mannoproteins used for finning. The volatile composition of wines was analyzed by gas chromatography with mass detector (GC-MS) [3]. The wines were analyzed by 20 expert tasters from the D.O.Ca Rioja with a structured numerical scale according to UNE-87-020-93 Standard (ISO 4121:1987). The Geometric Mean (GM%) of the olfactory descriptors was used to classify the descriptors according to the International Organization for Standardization ISO 11035.

RESULTS: The wines treated with the RGS fraction showed the highest content of acetates, related to fruit and floral aromas. The wines treated with WL presented the highest content of total acids. Ethyl esters and C6 alcohols were found in high concentrations in most of the wines. The wines treated with the RW fraction presented the lowest content of volatile families and reduced the perception of the herbaceous descriptor.

CONCLUSIONS

This research would allow to study the effect of different fractions of grape polysaccharides as fining agents on the volatile composition and the aromatic profile of Viura wines.

SENSORY EVALUATION OF WINE AROMA: SHOULD COLOR-DRIVEN DESCRIPTORS BE USED?

The vocabulary used to describe wine aroma is commonly organized according to color, raising the question of whether they reflect the reality of olfactory perception. Previous studies have assumed this convention of color-aroma matching, and have investigated color’s influence on the perception of aroma only in dyed white wine or in red wine from particular places of origin. Here 48 white and red varietal wines from around the world were evaluated in black glasses then in clear glasses by a panel of wine experts, who gave intensity ratings for aroma attributes commonly used by wine professionals. In black glasses, aromas conventionally associated with white wine were perceived in the red wines, and vice versa.

“Vinhos de mesa” et oenophilie : quand les caractéristiques organoleptiques des cépages américains empêchent l’intégration des consommateurs à l’univers de l’appréciation esthétique

Au Brésil, 80 % du vignoble national et 90 % du vignoble de l’État du Rio Grande do Sul (principale région productrice de vins dans le pays) sont plantés avec des cépages issus de vitis labrusca ou de cépages hybrides (DEBASTIANI, 2015). Une partie de cette production est utilisée pour la préparation de jus de raisin et de concentrés de moût ou de pulpe de raisin. Le restant est consacré à

‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ (Vitis vinifera L.) berry skin flavonol and anthocyanin composition is affected by trellis systems and applied water amounts

Trellis systems are selected in wine grape vineyards to mainly maximize vineyard yield and maintain berry quality. This study was conducted in 2020 and 2021 to evaluate six commonly utilized trellis systems including a vertical shoot positioning (VSP), two relaxed VSPs (VSP60 and VSP80), a single high wire (SH), a high quadrilateral (HQ), and a guyot (GY), combined with three levels of irrigation regimes based on different crop evapotranspiration (ETc) replacements, including a 25% ETc, 50% ETc, and 100% ETc. The results indicated SH yielded the most fruits and accumulated the most total soluble solids (TSS) at harvest in 2020, however, it showed the lowest TSS in the second season. In 2020, SH and HQ showed higher concentrations in most of the anthocyanin derivatives compared to the VSPs. Similar comparisons were noticed in 2021 as well. SH and HQ also accumulated more flavonols in both years compared to other trellis systems. Overall, this study provides information on the efficacy of trellis systems on grapevine yield and berry flavonoid accumulation in a currently warming climate.
