Impact of winemaking processes on wine polysaccharides, improving by qNMR

Abstract

AIM: Today the knowledge in terms of molecular composition of the colloidal matrix is not enough in order to control its stability, according to the number of winemaking and wine stabilization processes. The physico-chemical processes during the winemaking change the composition and quantity of wine macromolecules. The goal today is to determine which analytical techniques will allow to discriminate these winemaking processes in order to better understand their impact on colloidal matrix stability as well as which molecules are responsible for its instabilities.

METHODS: Wines obtained after conventional winemaking were subjected to different fining and chemical stabilization treatments. Different methods were used to investigate the wine macromolecular composition and stability after chemical stabilization, including quantitative and qualitative analyzes of total soluble polysaccharides by extraction under acidified ethanol, and by size exclusion separation as well as qNMR metabolomics.

RESULTS: Observation of a slight difference at the quantitative level using classical analysis between the winemaking processes was observed as well as a strong discrimination by qNMR metabolomics.

CONCLUSIONS:

Analyses of total soluble polysaccharide of wine after different treatment shows different types and amount of these molecules. The qNMR metabolomics confirme the discrimination between each treatment. It allows a strong discrimination and is a step towards in the identification of winemaking processes. More investigations still require to determine which are the key parameters involved the wine colloidal stability as well as the right stabilization products, physicochemical winemaking processes, depending on the wine. The qNMR allows to understand, improve and choose the vinifications processes and the physicochemical stabilization of the colloidal matrix of wines, while respecting the quality and typicity of the most Bordeaux wines.

Hierarchy of the role of climate, soil and cultivar in terroir effect can largely be explained by vine water status

Le terroir peut être défini comme un écosystème dans lequel la vigne interagit avec le climat et le sol et dont la résultante est le vin.

Effect of different canopy managements on microclimate and carbon allocation in Vitis vinifera cv Chardonnay

Climate change strongly affects the wine-growing sector which increasingly requires in situ adaptation strategies aimed at preserving the sustainability of production. Investigating microclimate becomes crucial in comprehending environmental pressures on plants. The microclimatic investigation conducted in the Orvieto PDO (central Italy) allowed us to highlight the climatic dynamics occurring in the last 25 years and the frequency and intensity of abiotic stresses. Two management strategies for the canopy were identified: early defoliation (ELR) and foliar application of Basalt Flour ® (FB) compared to the ordinary management (C) of the company (bud selection and topping). The effects on plant vigour indices (LAI), resource allocation in terms of carbon stored in the above-ground organs of the vine, and the microclimate of the canopy and the berry were evaluated. In particular, microclimate was evaluated through a network of sensors connected wirelessly (Wireless Sensor Network), dedicated to collecting information on temperature and humidity in the canopy and clusters.

Modernizing wine legislation for a resilient and competitive industry: lessons from Republic of Moldova’s legal and policy reforms

The evolution of Republic of Moldova’s wine industry offers a compelling case study in how legal harmonization and institutional reform can catalyze the transformation of a national wine sector.

Impact of crop load management on terpene content in gewürztraminer grapes

Context and purpose of the study ‐ Crop load management by cluster thinning can improve ripening and the concentration of key metabolites for grape and wine quality. However, little work has been done on testing the impact of crop load management on terpene content of white grapes. The goal of the study was to assess if by reducing crop load via cluster thinning growers can increase terpene concentration of grapes, as well as to test if the timing of thinning application affects terpene concentration.

Phenolic compounds of wine spirits resulting from different ageing technologies: behaviour during the storage in bottle

Phenolic compounds are released from the wood into the wine spirit (WS) during the ageing process, and are of utmost importance to the colour, flavour, taste and the overall quality acquired by this spirit drink.1 Their concentrations in the WS and the related effects mainly depend on the kind of wood (oaks vs chestnut), toasting level and ageing technology (traditional using wooden barrels vs alternative).1,2,3
