Impact of yeast strains on wine profiles of nine PIWIs: focus on volatile thiols

Abstract

Disease resistant grapevine varieties (PIWI) are increasingly important for sustainable wine production, yet the impact of different yeasts on their wine profiles remains poorly studied. In this study, nine white interspecies varieties (i.e., caladris blanc, fleurtai, hibernal, johanniter, muscaris, sauvignon kretos, soreli, souvignier gris, and voltis) grown at the faculty of agriculture, university of zagreb (croatia) were vinified with three different saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts (control strain, zymaflore x5, and zymaflore xarom). The obtained wines differed in a range of chemical and sensory parameters depending on the variety and yeast strain. Volatile thiols were particularly affected group of compounds, with major variations in 4-mmp, 3-mh, and 3-mha levels. The sum of these three thiols ranged from 88 ng/l to 1548 ng/l in muscaris and hibernal, respectively. Hibernal wine fermented with the x5 strain contained remarkable 1952 ng/l of thiols (> 490 odour active values), including 311 ng/l of 4-mmp. Unlike 4-mmp and 3-mha, 3-mh was detected in all tested samples. The x5 strain resulted in the highest levels of 4-mmp (median 18 ng/l) and 3-mh (median 380 ng/l), while xarom favored increased 3-mha production (median 74 ng/l). Sensory analysis confirmed differences in thiol-related descriptors, highlighting yeast’s influence on the wine style of emerging grape varieties.

Impatto dei ceppi di lievito sui profili enologici di nove piwi: focus sui tioli volatili

Le varietà resistenti alle malattie (piwi) sono sempre più importanti per la produzione vitivinicola sostenibile, ma l’impatto dei diversi lieviti sui loro profili vinicoli rimane poco studiato. In questo studio, nove varietà interspecifiche di uva bianca (caladris blanc, fleurtai, hibernal, johanniter, muscaris, sauvignon kretos, soreli, souvignier gris e voltis), coltivate presso la facoltà di agraria dell’università di zagabria (croazia), sono state vinificate con tre diverse ceppi di lievito saccharomyces cerevisiae (ceppo controllo, zymaflore x5 e zymaflore xarom). I vini ottenuti presentavano differenze in una serie di parametri chimici e sensoriali in base alla varietà e al ceppo di lievito. I tioli volatili, in particolare, sono stati fortemente influenzati, con variazioni significative nei livelli di 4-mmp, 3-mh e 3-mha. La somma di questi tre tioli variava da 88 ng/l a 1548 ng/l nei vini muscaris e hibernal, rispettivamente. Il vino hibernal fermentato con il ceppo x5 conteneva notevolmente 1952 ng/l di tioli (> 490 valore attivo olfattivo), di cui 311 ng/l di 4-mmp. A differenza del 4-mmp e del 3-mha, il 3-mh è stato rilevato in tutti gli esemplari testati. Il ceppo x5 ha prodotto i livelli più alti di 4-mmp (mediana di 18 ng/l) e di 3-mh (mediana di 380 ng/l), mentre il xarom favoriva una produzione aumentata di 3-mha (mediana di 74 ng/l). L’analisi sensoriale ha confermato le differenze nei descrittori legati ai tioli, evidenziando l’influenza del lievito sullo stile dei vini prodotti da queste varietà emergenti di uva.

Impact des souches de levure sur les profils œnologiques de neuf piwis : focus sur les thiols volatils

Les cépages résistants aux maladies (piwi) sont de plus en plus importants pour la production viticole durable, mais l’impact des différentes levures sur leurs profils œnologiques reste peu étudié. Dans cette étude, neuf cépages interspécifiques blancs (caladris blanc, fleurtai, hibernal, johanniter, muscaris, sauvignon kretos, soreli, souvignier gris et voltis), cultivées à la faculté d’agriculture de l’université de zagreb (croatie), ont été vinifiées avec trois souches différentes de saccharomyces cerevisiae (souche témoin, zymaflore x5 et zymaflore xarom). Les vins obtenus présentaient des différences dans plusieurs paramètres chimiques et sensoriels en fonction de la variété et de la souche de levure. Les thiols volatils, en particulier, ont été fortement affectés, avec des variations significatives dans les niveaux de 4-mmp, 3-mh et 3-mha. La somme de ces trois thiols variait de 88 ng/l à 1548 ng/l dans les vins issus de muscaris et hibernal, respectivement. Le vin hibernal fermenté avec la souche x5 contenait 1952 ng/l de thiols (> 490 valeur actif olfactif), dont 311 ng/l de 4-mmp. Contrairement au 4-mmp et au 3-mha, le 3-mh a été détecté dans tous les échantillons analysés. La souche x5 a entraîné les niveaux les plus élevés de 4-mmp (médiane : 18 ng/l) et de 3-mh (médiane : 380 ng/l), tandis que xarom favorisait une production accrue de 3-mha (médiane : 74 ng/l). L’analyse sensorielle a confirmé les différences dans les descripteurs liés aux thiols volatils, soulignant l’influence de la levure sur le style des vins issus de ces cépages émergentes.

Unveiling the bioactive potential of aglianco grape pomace: oleanolic acid as a promising natural product

The winemaking industry generates a substantial amount of byproducts, including grape pomace, which is often discarded as waste. However, this seemingly useless material holds a wealth of bioactive compounds with potential health benefits. Recognizing the value of circular economy principles, this study delves into the comprehensive chemical analysis of aglianco grape pomace, aiming to transform this byproduct into a valuable resource.

Quantitative and qualitative changes in terpenes during enzymatic maceration and fermentation in wine production: insights from Polish grape varieties

The production of fermented alcoholic beverages involves numerous processes in which microorganisms and enzymes convert components derived from the raw material into a wide range of compounds that affect the sensory characteristics of the resulting product. It is estimated that there may be as many as 800 to 1,000 such compounds in wine. These compounds belong to different chemical groups such as esters, alcohols, carboxylic acids, carbonyl compounds, polyphenols, sugars and many others.

Mineral-wine profile and AI: wine authentication and identification

Enhancing the mineral wine profile: from authentication to identification by artificial intelligence for enhanced security. Analysis of a wine’s mineral concentration profile provides a distinctive fingerprint for each cuvée. Unlike organic profiles, this identification signature remains stable over time and can be deciphered using direct analysis by inductively coupled mass spectrometry (icp-ms).

Phenolic composition and physicochemical analysis of wines made with the syrah grape under double pruning in the Brazilian high-altitude cerrado

Wine growing has proven to be a development opportunity for agribusiness in several new regions of brazil, including the federal district. There are more than ten existing wineries, established in the last five years. Through the double pruning system, which consists of trimming the growing shoots in the summer and positioning the ripening of the fruits in a cooler period of the season, the grapes are sought to ripen more completely. The syrah variety has shown excellent adaptation to this cycle management model.

L’essor des produits “No-Low” : nouveaux défis pour l’étiquetage et la réglementation

In recent years, “no-low” products seem to become a new worldwide trend. It appears to be a possible answer to the well-known context of climate change, the decline in wine consumption, and the wellness/health trend (“free from” claims, vegan, and so on…) That consumers are looking for. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the “no-low” products sold in the french market (but not only french products), focusing on the labelling, packaging, and sales presentation of these products.
