Red wine oxidation: oxygen consumption kinetics and high resolution uplc-ms analysis

Abstract

Oxygen is playing a major role in wine ageing and conservation. Many chemical oxidation reactions occur but they are difficult to follow due to their slow reaction times and the numerous resulting reaction products. There is a need for global and rapid in vitro tests to predict wine oxidation kinetics. First, three different forced oxidation protocols were developed on a “young” (2018) red wine to follow the consumption of oxygen. After oxygen saturation of the wines at 22°C, the red wines were oxidized following 3 different protocols

1 – heat at 60°C

2 –laccase oxidation at 22°C

3 –hydrogen peroxide oxidation at 22°C

The oxygen consumption kinetics were followed by oxo-luminescence oxygen measurements. The oxygen consumption all followed a first order kinetic on the 2018 wine but had different kinetics constants depending on the oxidation protocol. High resolution UPLC-MS was also performed on forced oxidation samples and compared to natural oxidation samples of naturally aged red wines (2014 and 2010 vintages). Specific polyphenols (anthocyanins, flavanols and their derivatives) were impacted in both naturally or artificially aged wines and differed depending on the oxidation protocol. For example, the intensity of some low molecular weight polyphenols increased both in naturally or artificially heated aged wines ([M+H]+= 287; 289; 291; 303; 317; 319). However, some differences were observed between natural and artificial aging for higher molecular weight polyphenols ([M+H]+= 493; 535; 639)

Effect of irrigation and soil type on root growth and distribution of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Nero d’Avola grown in Sicily

L’essai a été effectué dans un vignoble du cépage Nero d’Avola greffé sur 1103 Paulsen dans un terroir de la D.O.C Alcamo en Sicile. Le système de conduite des vignes était à espalier, la taille à cordon coursonné et l’irrigation à goutte a goutte.

Valorization of wine lees for oenological interest by eco-responsible processes

Wine lees are the second most important wine by-product in terms of quantity after grape stalk and marc. During aging on lees, it is well known that wine lees yield compounds that act as antioxydant. However the chemical nature of the compounds involved in this behavior (except polyphenols and glutathione) has not yet been totally elucidated. The scarce knowledge of wine lees composition and their potential exploitation make them a promising candidate to obtain new antioxidant products to be used in winemaking. In this study, an eco-sustainable approach to obtain lees extracts exhibiting antioxidant capacity is proposed. Such extracts could be used in a global enological strategy of sulfites level reduction.

The effects of perennial cover crop management on soil temperature and vine water status

The implications of perennial cover crop management on vine vigor and yield have been well documented. However, whereas multiple studies show that cover crop management affects grapevine dry matter production, water, and nutrient status, the specific effects of a new hybrid perennial cover crop on soil temperature and its relationship to vine water status in vineyards has not been explored. This study will compare 3 different perennial cover crop combinations and tillage practices with a no-till seeding of a new hybrid perennial, Poa bulbosa (Pb).

ADDITION OF OAK WOOD ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: QUALITATIVE AND SENSORIAL EFFECTS FOR A WHITE WINE OF ALIGOTE

Wines matured in contact with wood are extremely popular with consumers all over the world. Oak wood allows the organoleptic characteristics of wine to be modified. Wines are enriched with volatile and non-volatile compounds extracted from the wood. The aromas extracted from oak wood contribute to the construction of the wine’s aromatic profile and the main polyphenols extracted can modify taste perceptions such as astringency and bitterness. All the compounds extracted from the wood thus contribute to the balance and quality of the wines.
