IMPACT OF GRAPE-ASSOCIATED MOLDS IN FRESH MUSHROOM AROMA PRODUCTION

Abstract

Mycobiota encountered from vine to wine is a complex and diversified ecosystem that may impact grape quality at harvest and the sensorial properties of wines, thus leading to off-flavors [1-3]. Among known off-flavors in wine, fresh mushroom aroma (FMA) has been linked to some mold species, naturally pre-sent on grapes, producing specific volatile organic compounds (VOC) [4-5]. The most well-known are 1-octen-3-ol and 1-octen-3-one, although many other VOC are likely involved. To better understand the FMA defect, biotic and abiotic factors impacting growth kinetics and VOC production of selected fungal species in must media and on grapes were studied. In total, 18 fungal isolates, belonging to 7 genera and 9 species, were selected based on their off-odor production profiles on malt medium among 685 isolates from our working collection. Growth rates were measured using solid synthetic must (MS) and real must (MR) and compared to those obtained in liquid must by laser nephelometry. Sensorial analysis and VOC profiles (GC-MS) were also determined for the same isolates, individually or in co-cultures with two FMA producing Botrytis isolates, after growth on must and grapes. Among the generated physiological data, optimal growth temperatures were 27-28°C, 26-30°C, 21-22°C for Botrytis spp., Penicillium crocicola and P. citreonigrum, respectively, depending on the isolate. Fastest growth rates were observed for B. cinerea and P. crocicola, while Cladosporium subtilissimum and P. brevicompactum isolates were slowest. For VOC profiles, P. crocicola, P. bialowiezense and Clonostachys rosea produced known FMA compounds (1-octen-3-one and 1-octen-3-ol) at higher levels when co-inoculated with Botrytis spp. on grapes. For must trials, a species effect on VOC profiles was clearly observed (92 VOC identified). To confirm these findings, further co-inoculation studies were performed on two grape varieties (Meunier and Pinot noir) and, so far, sensorial analyses showed similar trends. Overall, this study provides novel knowledge about changes in fungal growth kinetics and VOC profiles in musts and on grapes. These results provide new insights for the wine making to better understand how FMA off-flavors are generated by molds.

CHARACTERIZATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF YEAST BIOACTIVE PEPTIDES RELEASED DURING FERMENTATION AND AUTOLYSIS IN MODEL WINE

Aging wine on lees is a consolidated practice during which some yeast components (e.g., polysaccharides,
proteins, peptides) are released and solubilized in wine thus, affecting its stability and quality.
Apart from the widely studied mannoproteins, the role of other yeast components in modulating wine
characteristics is still scarce. Wine peptides have been studied for their contribution to taste, antioxidant,
and antihypertensive potentials. However, the peptides detected in wine can be influenced by the
interaction between yeasts and grape components.

EFFECTIVENESS OF APPLIED MATERIALS IN REDUCING THE ABSORPTION OF SMOKE MARKER COMPOUNDS IN A SIMULATED WILDFIRE SCENARIO

Smoke taint (ST) is a grape-wine off-flavour that may occur when grapes absorb volatile phenols (VPs) originating from wildfire smoke (1). ST is associated with the negative sensory attributes such as smoky and ashy notes. VPs are glycosylated in the plant and thus present in both free and bound forms (2; 3). Wildfire smoke has resulted in a decline in grape and wine quality and financial losses which has become a prominent issue for the global wine industry.

INVESTIGATION OF FILM COATINGS AS A PROTECTIVE LAYER IN REDUCING THE ABSORPTION OF SMOKE PHENOLS INTO PINOT NOIR GRAPES

Wine grapes exposed to wildfire smoke have resulted in wines with burnt and ashy sensory characteristics¹, that are undesirable qualities in wine. In extreme wildfire events, this can lead to total loss of grape crop. Currently there are no effective solutions in the market to prevent the uptake of smoke compounds into grapes. In this study, previously developed innovative film coatings were tested to analyze their effectiveness in reducing smoke phenol absorption². Four different cellulose nanofiber-based film types were investigated.

Molecular approaches for understanding and modulating wine taste

Wine consumers generally demand wines having a perception of softer tannins and less ripe, having a heaviness and richness on palate (full-body wine) with a limpid and stable color. However, polyphenol
(tannins)-rich wines have been also correlated with unpleasant taste properties such as astringency and
bitterness when perceived at high intensities. Modulating these unpleasant properties could be important for consumer’s approval of wines.

SENSORY DEFINITION OF A TECHNICAL UNAVOIDABLE TRANSFER OF AROMA COMPOUNDS VIA SEALING IN A BOTTLING LINE IN ORDER TO PREVENT PROSECUTION DUE TO FRAUDULENT AROMATIZATION OF A SUBSEQUENTLY FILLED WINE

In 2020, 12% of all bottled German wines were aromatized, which may increase further due to rising popularity of dealcoholized wines. As sealing polymers of a bottling line absorb aroma compounds and may release them into regular wines in the next filling¹, this unintentional carry-over bears the risk to violate the legal ban of any aromatization of regular wine. However, following EU legislation, German food control authorities accept a technical unavoidable transfer of aroma compounds, if this is of no sensory significance.
