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

Influence of irrigation frequency on berry phenolic composition of red grape varieties cultivated in four spanish wine-growing regions

The global warming phenomenon involves the frequency of extreme meteorological events accompanied by a change in rainfall distribution. Irrigation frequency (IF) affects the spatial and temporal soil water distribution but its effects on the phenolic composition of the grape have been scarcely studied. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of four deficit irrigation frequencies of 30 % ETo: one irrigation per day (T01), two irrigations per week (T03), one irrigation per week (T07) and one irrigation every two weeks (T15) on berry phenolic composition at harvest.

Estudio de fertilidad en variedades blancas en Castilla-la Mancha

La adaptación de nuevas variedades a zonas de cultivo fuera de su área de origen presenta múltiples interrogantes. En Castilla-La Mancha se está produciendo en los últimos años una gran inquietud por la diversificación y la reconversión de variedades.

Appliance of climate projections for climate change study in Serbian vineyard regions

Climate projections considered here are for two periods in the future throughout two IPCC scenarios: 2001 – 2030 (A1B) and 2071 – 2100 (A2) obtained using Coupled Regional Climate

Ripening of Vitis vinifera grapes varieties in São Joaquim, a new wine growing region, Southern Brazil

This report has investigated the ripening characteristics of Vitis vinifera grapes Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Sangiovese and Syrah in two consecutive vintages (2006 and 2007), in order to evaluate the adaptation from these recently varieties planted in São Joaquim town, Santa Catarina State, Brazil.

Key genes in rotundone biosynthesis are affected by temperature, light, water supply, and nitrogen uptake

Rotundone accumulation and biosynthesis is a complicated process. Previous research highlighted that these phenomenons were affected under ecophysiological conditions by viticultural practices (e.g. defoliation or irrigation). Individually, these practices often impact several abiotic factors that are difficult to separate such as temperature, water or nitrogen status, or radiation. Such dissociation can be achieved under controlled environmental conditions using potted vines.
