A study on the oenological potentiality of the territory of a cooperative winery in Valpolicella (Italy)

Abstract

A 3-year zoning study promoted by the Cooperative Winery Valpolicella (Negrar, Verona, Italy) was carried out on a wine territory of about 500 ha. The aim was to individuate the oenological potential of the vineyards of associated growers in order to improve in general the quality of the wines and in particular to increase the production of premium wines (Amarone and Recioto). The zoning will be also used to apply differentiate payments of the grapes to the associated growers according to the production areas. On the basis of the results obtained from 12 reference vineyards it was possible to individuate zones at high and low oenological potential and to suggest a partition of the territory on the basis of the global performance of the vineyards taking into account 3 elements of economical relevance: yield, wine quality and technological quality of the grapes (drying aptitude).

FACTORS AFFECTING QUERCETIN SOLUBILITY IN SANGIOVESE RED WINE: FIRST RESULTS

Quercetin (Q) is present in grape in form of glycosides and as aglycone. These compounds are extracted from grape skins during winemaking. In wines, following the hydrolysis reactions, the amount of quercetin aglycon can exceed its solubility value. Unfortunately, a threshold solubility concentration for quercetin in wine is not easy to determine because it depends on wine matrix (Gambuti et al., 2020).

Acceptability of canned wines: effect of the level of involvement of consumers and type of wine

In recent years there has been a growing demand for alternative packaging designs in the food industry focused on diminishing the carbon footprint. Despite the environmental advantages of cans versus bottles, the traditional environment of wine has hindered the establishment of less contaminant containers. In this context, the objective of this study was to understand and generate knowledge about consumers´ perception of canned wines in comparison to bottled wines.

Skin And Seed Extracts Differently Behave Towards Salivary Proteins

Background: Polyphenols extracted from skins and seeds showed different sensory attributes including astringency and bitterness. In previous studies, it has been demonstrated that extracts obtained either from skins or seeds interact differently with salivary proteins.
