Effects of yeast product addition and fermentation temperature on lipid composition and sensory of pinot noir wines

Abstract

AIM: Firm tissues of grapes and yeast are the major sources of lipids in wine. Variation of yeasts and grape varieties could impact the concentration and composition of lipids in wine. Lipid metabolism is also affected by changes in fermentation temperature. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in lipid compositions and sensory in Pinot Noir wines in response to differences in fermentation temperature and addition of different types and amounts of yeast derivative products.

METHODS: Oregon Pinot noir grapes from 2019 were fermented at 16°C and 25°C. Following primary and malolactic fermentation, the yeast product Oenolees (Laffort, USA) was added to the wines. Treatments included single addition of Oenolees at different concentrations (0 g/L, 0.5 g/L, and 1.0 g/L). Bligh and Dyer lipid extraction method with a solvent mixture chloroform/methanol was used to extract total lipids in the experimental wines. Lipids extracted were subjected to lipidomic analysis using ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) to identify and analyze the lipid composition. The sensory of the final products was evaluated using triangle tests and descriptive analysis.

RESULTS: The results indicated that wine style and wine quality could be distinguished by lipid composition in wine. However, the taste and mouthfeel characteristics, sweetness, bitterness, acidity, viscosity, and drying, were not significantly different among the treatments.

CONCLUSIONS:

The wine processes of fermentation temperature and yeast product addition did not alter the lipid content of wine. While the low lipid concentration in the wine treatments resulted in no differences in the sensory study, there is much to understand about their role in compound interactions as wine ages and if this has an impact on wine mouthfeel. Lipids themselves may not have direct impacts on wine mouthfeel but there is still potential for interactions between lipids and other wine components, such as tannins, to alter wine mouthfeel perception

Acceptance of fungus-resistant grape varieties from the perspective of producers and consumers in Germany

Fungus-resistant grape varieties (frgv) are an important field of research in viticulture, as they represent a way of reducing the use of copper-containing pesticides and thus minimising the environmental impact. The literature suggests that resistant grape varieties are a promising solution to the problem of using copper-containing pesticides in viticulture and that their quality has improved in recent years. However, there are still challenges in the acceptance and dissemination of FRGV by wine producers and consumers.

Juvenile-to-adult vegetative phase transition in grapevine

The sequential activity of miR156 and miR172 controls the juvenile to adult phase transition in many plant species, where miR156 abundance decreases while miR172 increases along plant development. Very little is known about phase transition in horticultural woody species, which show substantially long vegetative phases. In grapevine, phase transition seems to be dissociated, displaying a first transition from juvenile to adult vegetative state in the first year, coincident with tendril differentiation and a subsequent induction of inflorescences in place of some of tendrils in later years under flowering inductive environmental conditions. Since grapevine is a highly heterozygous species, the generation of genetically homogeneous material for replicated transcriptomic analyses from seed-derived plants was a main challenge.

Comparison between the volatile chemical profile of two different blends for PDO “Valpolicella Superiore”

Valpolicella is a famous wine producing region located in the north of Verona close to Garda lake and owes its fame above all to the production of two Protected Designation of Origins (PDOs) withered wines: Amarone and Recioto. Nowadays the production of another PDO, Valpolicella Superiore is gaining more attention by the consumers, increasing the interest of the wineries to improve the quality of this wines

Projected changes of grapevine phenology in Belgian and South African vineyards under climate change scenarios

The concept of ‘terroir’ describes the interplay of the environmental factors that affect the grapevine. This includes but is not limited to climate, soil composition, vineyard management, topography, and geology.
