Effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace and must on sensory and chemical composition of white wines

Abstract

AIM: The objective of this work is to study the effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace by-products and musts on sensory and chemical composition of white wines. Much of the waste obtained in the wine sector is not used, and they can have some valuable compounds, such as the polysaccharides (PS). Then, we decide to extract them from grape pomace and musts and incorporate them into wines to improve their quality, in a circular economy process.

METHODS: Four white wines from Verdejo and Albillo grape varieties were elaborated and five experiments were carried out with each wine: control wines (without the addition of any product); wines with the addition of PS extracted from white grape pomace (1); wines with the addition of PS extracted from white must (2); wines with the addition of rhamnogalacturonans type II (RG-II) of 80% purity; and wines with the addition of commercial PS (inactivated yeast). These products were maintained in contact with the wines for two months, and then they were filtered and bottled. Total polysaccharides, volatile and phenolic compounds were analysed after two months in bottle (2,3), and a sensory analysis was also carried out.

RESULTS: No significant differences were found in the total phenolic compounds by the effect of the addition of the different PS added. In general, the addition of the different PS extracts increased the total PS content, mainly in the wines treated with PS extracted from grape pomace and must. The differences observed in the volatile composition depended on the wine and the family group. The ethyl esters and alcohol acetates slightly increased in some of the wines treated with PS extracted from grape pomace and must, and decreased in wines treated with RG-II. The treatment with the PS extracts reduced the acidity excess of some of the wines studied and increased their mouth-feel and global valuation.

CONCLUSIONS

The use of grape PS extracted from grape pomace or must improve some wine characteristics, such as polysaccharide and volatile composition, and the acidity and mouth-feel attributes. However, these are preliminary results since these wines will be analysed after six months in bottle in order to know if these changes will maintain.

Zoning of viticulture in Yugoslavia

The last official zoning of Viticulture in Yugoslavia was performed 1978. year, when (according to recommendation of OIV and European Economic Community), regions, sub regions and vineyards districts were established supposing that the varieties which will be exhibit ail the positive agro biological and technological characteristics.

Partial dealcoholisation of red wine by reverse osmosis-evaporative perstraction: impact on wine composition

Around the world, the alcohol content of wine has been steadily increasing; partly as a consequence of climate change, but also due to improvements in viticultural management practices and winemaking techniques [1,2]. Concurrently, market demand for wines with lower alcohol levels has increased as consumers seek to reduce alcohol intake for social and/or health reasons [3]. As such, there is increasing demand for both innovative methods that allow winemakers to produce ‘reduced alcohol wines’ (RAW) and a better understanding of the impact of such methods on the composition of RAW. This study therefore aimed to investigate compositional changes in two red wines resulting from partial alcohol removal following treatment by one such method, involving a combination of reverse osmosis and evaporative perstraction (RO-EP).

Copper reduction strategy for sangiovese in organic viticulture

Organic viticulture requires copper based treatments for bunch protection even though an intensive employment is no longer admitted because of its low leaching and phytotoxicity in the soil. UE Reg. 1981/2018 set copper employment to 4 kg/ha for year or 28 during 7 years with an absolute level allowed of 6 Kg/ha although those limits were decreased frequently.

The challenge of improving oenological quality in favorable conditions for productivity

Marselan (Cabernet-Sauvignon x Grenache), has been planted for more than 20 years now in Uruguay. Due to its good agronomic and oenological aptitudes under uruguayan conditions, it is currently the red variety with highest plantation rate. The objective of the study was to identify management practices, aimed at improving quality in highly productive vineyards, different fruit/leaf regulation methods were tested in southern Uruguay.

VOLATILE, PHENOLIC AND COLORIMETRIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THREE DIFFERENT LAMBRUSCO APPELLATIONS

Lambrusco is a commercially successful sparkling red and rosé wine. With 13.06 million litres sold in 2021 was the second best-selling Italian wine after Chianti. According to National Catalogue of Vine Varieties there are thirteen Lambrusco Varieties with which to date are produced seven PDO wines. Among these, “Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce”, “Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro” and “Lambrusco di Sorbara” are the only ones that can be considered mono-varietal appellations, all located in Modena area. The PDOs contemplate the possibility of producing wines by secondary fermentation either in tank (Charmat method), or in bottle (Classico method). Sur lie is a third method commonly employed for Lambrusco, similar to the Classico method, from which differs for the absence of disgorgement.
