Optimization of a tool to determine the oxygen avidity of a wine through the kinetics of consumption by its phenolic and aromatic fractions (PAFs)

Abstract

AIM: Wine oxidation phenomena during the different processes of winemaking, aging and storage are closely related to the presence of oxygen and to the wine’s capacity for consumption. Grape composition will be directly related to wine composition, defining the O2 consumption rate, with particular importance of phenolic compounds and metal ions content. The prediction of the O2 consumption capacity of a wine could be a great tool to help in decision making during the winemaking process. The objetive of this work was the optimization of the reactivation of phenolic and aromatic fractions of grapes (PAFs) for the study of their avidity to consume oxygen. Beside, the effect of alcohol, pH, acetaldehyde and the metals Fe, Cu and Mn has been studied.

METHODS: Different PAFs reactivated under 16 different conditions defined by different levels of pH, alcohol content, acetaldehyde, iron, Cu and Mn were subjected to an oxygen consumption kinetic after saturation with air (1,2).

RESULTS: The parameters defining the kinetics of consumption allowed us to differentiate the different types of grapes. The greatest discriminatory capacity were the parameters related to the amount of oxygen consumed and the time invested in consuming this amount of oxygen, especially in the first stages or the time required to consume the 10% available oxygen, the area under the curve or the time to reach half-area. Thus, the lower iron content facilitated oxygen consumption, requiring less time, and similar results were found with respect to the presence of Mn.

CONCLUSIONS

The best activation conditions of phenolic and aromatic fractions have been established for the evaluation of different PAFs by developing their oxygen consumption kinetics.

Armenia: historical origin of domesticated grapevine

The Armenian highlands are located on the northern border of western asia and stretch up to the caucasus from the north. Throughout human history, country has played an important role in connecting the civilizations of europe and the near east. The recent large-scale study about the dual domestication origin and evolution of grapes approved that in the Armenian highlands human and grapevine stories are interlaced through centuries and roots of grapevine domestication are found deep in the pleistocene, ending 11.5 thousand years ago. Findings of this study confirmed that glacial episodes distinguish wild grapes into eastern and western ecotypes around 200-400 ka.

Un exemple de valorisation d’une étude de terroir au sein d’une unité coopérative de production à Saint Hilaire d’Ozilhan (Gard) dans les cotes du Rhône

The winegrowers of the intercommunal cooperative cellar of Saint Hilaire d’Ozilhan have been practicing terroir selection for ten years. Five years ago, after having equipped themselves with an efficient commercial structure, and anxious to improve knowledge of their terroirs and to better control quantitatively and qualitatively the range of typicality that they can develop, they asked the Syndicate Général des Vignerons Réunis des Côtes du Rhône and the Institut Coopératif du Vin to help them set up an approach to better judge the behavior of the Grenache and Syrah grape varieties in the different terroirs, then to enhance this work through the improving product quality.

A Viticultural Terroir in Brazil: Change and continuity

The viticultural terroir at the Serra Gaúcha region, in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, is analyzed under historical and sociological viewpoints, aiming to understand the origin of its characteristics, and the risks for its continuity.

Re-examination and meta-analysis of previous research as a tool to evaluate the suitability of rootstocks in adaptation to global change. A study case from Spanish viticulture

Meta-analysis (MA) is a method that allows statistical synthesis of the results of several similar individual studies (Figure 1). This term was introduced by Glass in 1976 as a useful tool for the scientific community to pool and summarise the enormous amount of information collected in the literature.
