Zoning influence in chromatic parameters in Monastrell grape

Abstract

Zoning analysis determine homogeneous areas principally from the point of view of the medium, giving as a result a map which cartographic units synthesize the relations between the edaphic factors; morphological factors of the soil and climatic factors. The combination of these types of parameters allows to obtain maps of suitability of the optimum areas for the crop of the vineyard. At present it has been delimited and characterized eight grape areas belonging to the D.O. Jumilla. The chosen plots has been: Varahonda, Cañada del Judío, Cañada de Albatana, El Carche, Rubializas, Agüeros, Cortijo del Agrio and Casa Vistalegre. 
The determined parameters are: Phenological parameters: Dates of sprouting, flowering, veraison, and harvest. Chemical parameters during maturation: total phenolic compounds, anthocyanins to pH 1 (extractable anthoc.) and anthocyanins to pH 3 (Total anthoc.), seed ripeness (MP) and index of cellular ripeness (IMC). 
As for the determination of chromatic parameters and of extractability, in the plot of Cortijo del agrio the biggest quantity of anthocyanins has been obtained on having finished the period of ripening, on the other hand the plot of Cañada del Judio is the one that has obtained the highest values of extractable polyphenols. In our study, for the IMC lower value has been obtained for the plot located in Cañada del Judio and the highest value for the plot of Cortijo del agrio. As for seed ripeness Rubializas and Cortijo del agrio are the plots that obtained the lowest values.

Managing changes in taste: lessons from champagne in britain 1800-1914

This paper focuses on how taste in wine (and other foods) changes and the implications of this process
for producers and merchants.
It draws primarily on the changing taste of and taste for champagne in Britain in the 19th century. Between 1850 and 1880 champagne went from a dosage level of around 20% (20 grams sugar / litre) to 0%. Champagne became the ‘dinner wine of the elite – drunk with roast meat and savoury dishes.
Contemporaries accepted that while most people could distinguish the taste of good champagne from that of bad, very few could distinguish very good from good.

Bioprotection, leveraging beneficial microorganisms, has emerged as a sustainable approach to modern winemaking, minimizing reliance on chemical preservatives like as sulfur dioxide (SO₂).

PHOTOCHEMICAL DEGRADATION OF TRYPTOPHAN IN MODEL WINE: IMPACT OF HEAVY METALS AND OXYGEN ON 2-AMINOACETOPHENONE FORMATION

The wine industry worldwide faces more and more challenges due to climate change, such as increased dryness in some areas, water stress, sunburn and early harvesting during hot summer temperatures¹. One of the resulting problems for the wine quality might be a higher prevalence of the untypical aging off-flavor (ATA)². A substance, which Rapp and Versini made responsible for ATA, is the 2-aminoace-tophenone (2-AAP)³. 2-AAP in wine causes a naphthalene, wet towels, wet wool, acacia flower or just a soapy note⁴.
