Influence of soil type on juice quality in a vineyard from DO Ca Rioja

g-Nonalactone has been identified as a significant contributor to the aroma profile of a range of wines and is associated with stonefruit and coconut descriptors.

Polyphenols are important compounds involved in many chemical and sensory wine features. In winemaking, adding oenological tannins claims to have positive impacts on wine stability, protection from oxidation and aroma persistence. Polyphenols are antioxidant compounds by either scavenging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species or chelating Fe2+ ions (1). However, as tannins oxidation leads to the formation of highly reactive species (i.e. ortho-quinones), it is still unclear if they have an effective role toward oxidation of wine aromas (2). In this work, we aim at studying the effect of two commercial tannins (proanthocyanidins, ellagitannins) on red wine flavour (mainly aroma) before and after air exposition.

Reductive wine fault is characterized by the presence of odors such as rotten eggs or spoiled camembert cheese, originating from hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and methanethiol (MeSH) [1]. These compounds stabilize in polysulfide forms, creating a complex pool of precursors that will revert to both molecules when the environment becomes anoxic [2].

In the last decades the use of bioestimulants in viticulture have been promoted as alternative to conven- tional pesticides. Moreover, as bioestimulants promote the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in grape berries, several studies had investigated their influence on the accumulation of phenolic com- pounds (Monteiro et al., 2022). However, few studies, so far, are focused on the accumulation of the vo- latile compounds and their impact on the produced wines (Giménez-Bañón et al., 2022; Gomez- Plaza et al., 2012; Ruiz Garcia et al., 2014).
This study was conducted in a single vineyard of white autochthonous grapevine variety Savvatia- no (Vitis vinifera L.) in Muses Valley (Askri, Viotia, Greece). Chitosan (CHT), Abscisic Acid (ABA) and Benzothiadiazole (BTH) were applied.

Il comprensorio del Lago di Bolsena (VT) è un territorio ad elevata vocazione vitivinicola in cui il paesaggio della vite storicamente persiste e caratterizza la fisionomia dei luoghi. Qui gli agroecosistemi viticoli possiedono una valenza ecologico-ambientale, storico-culturale ed economica di rilievo.
