Assessment of the volatile and non-volatile profile of Savatiano PGI wines as affected by various terroirs in Attica, Greece. Food Res Int 2023; 174:113649. [PMID: 37981363 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023]
Abstract
Establishing the concept of terroir in wines, combined with the exploitation of native grape varieties, is considered a viable alternative to produce quality wines for increasing interest in the wine market. The aim of this study is the characterization of Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) Savatiano white wines from different regions of Attica (Greece), through the chemical and sensory description of the aroma of wines and the determination of their phenolic profiles. The wines produced with the same vinification protocol were evaluated using the descriptive sensory analysis method while they underwent profiling of volatile and phenolic compounds by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) respectively. The presence of regional differences within the wines was also explored, elaborated with variables that contribute to their differentiation, such as soil type, monthly average temperature, and rainfall. Volatile and sensory profiles of the wines separated the regions and confirmed that sub-regional differences attributed mainly to soil characteristics affect wine aroma. The wines from the east part of Attica were higher in esters, terpenes and higher alcohols with high scores in fruity and blossoms attributes while wines from the north part of Attica presented higher intensity of mineral, nutty and herbaceous attributes. The separations based solely on the phenolic compounds concentration were less clear but a relationship was found between the content of phenolic acids and flavonoids and the studied regions. To our knowledge this is the first characterization of Savatiano PGI wines of Attica generating a fingerprint including chemical composition and sensory aroma characteristics to differentiate wines, combining this pattern with particular sub-regions.

New Isolated Autochthonous Strains of S. cerevisiae for Fermentation of Two Grape Varieties Grown in Poland. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/app12073483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
Many commercial strains of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae species are used around the world in the wine industry, while the use of native yeast strains is highly recommended for their role in shaping specific, terroir-associated wine characteristics. In recent years, in Poland, an increase in the number of registered vineyards has been observed, and Polish wines are becoming more recognizable among consumers. In the fermentation process, apart from ethyl alcohol, numerous microbial metabolites are formed. These compounds shape the wine bouquet or become precursors for the creation of new products that affect the sensory characteristics and quality of the wine. The aim of this work was to study the effect of the grapevine varieties and newly isolated native S. cerevisiae yeast strains on the content of selected wine fermentation metabolites. Two vine varieties—Regent and Seyval blanc were used. A total of 16 different yeast strains of the S. cerevisiae species were used for fermentation: nine newly isolated from vine fruit and seven commercial cultures. The obtained wines differed in terms of the content of analyzed oenological characteristics and the differences depended both on the raw material (vine variety) as well as the source of isolation and origin of the yeast strain used (commercial vs. native). Generally, red wines characterized a higher content of tested analytes than white wines, regardless of the yeast strain used. The red wines are produced with the use of native yeast strains characterized by higher content of amyl alcohols and esters.

Optimization of Vineyard Water Management: Challenges, Strategies, and Perspectives. WATER 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/w13060746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Water availability is endangering the production, quality, and economic viability of growing wine grapes worldwide. Climate change projections reveal warming and drying trends for the upcoming decades, constraining the sustainability of viticulture. In this context, a great research effort over the last years has been devoted to understanding the effects of water stress on grapevine performance. Moreover, irrigation scheduling and other management practices have been tested in order to alleviate the deleterious effects of water stress on wine production. The current manuscript provides a comprehensive overview of the advances in the research on optimizing water management in vineyards, including the use of novel technologies (modeling, remote sensing). In addition, methods for assessing vine water status are summarized. Moreover, the manuscript will focus on the interactions between grapevine water status and biotic stressors. Finally, future perspectives for research are provided. These include the performance of multifactorial studies accounting for the interrelations between water availability and other stressors, the development of a cost-effective and easy-to-use tool for assessing vine water status, and the study of less-known cultivars under different soil and climate conditions.

Relationships between chlorophyll content of vine leaves, predawn leaf water potential at veraison, and chemical and sensory attributes of wine. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2020; 100:5251-5259. [PMID: 32520393 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.10575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2020] [Revised: 05/11/2020] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Water deficit and iron deficiency (iron chlorosis) are common environmental stresses that affect grapevine production in the Mediterranean area. Studies on the impact of both stresses, when they act simultaneously, are rare. The main objective of this investigation was to evaluate the combined effects of the incidence of iron chlorosis and the vine water status on quality of Tempranillo wine. For this, 20 non-irrigated vineyard subzones (10 m × 10 m each), from non-affected to moderately affected by iron chlorosis, were monitored in the Ribera del Duero area (north-central Spain) during two consecutive seasons. RESULTS Factorial analyses of variance were performed to study the effects of predawn leaf water potential and foliar chlorophyll content, both measured at veraison, on chemical and sensory characteristics of wine. With an impact much greater than water status, the incidence of iron stress decreased pH of the wine and enhanced sensory attributes as tonality, layer intensity, flavour intensity, and persistence in the mouth. There were increases in red colour, astringency, and persistence of the wine associated with chlorosis, although they might be restricted in water-deficit conditions. CONCLUSION The results have demonstrated that mild to moderate iron stress can have positive effects on chemical and sensory attributes of Tempranillo wine. Measurements of foliar chlorophyll content at veraison could be very useful to map quality potential in rainfed vineyards affected by iron deficiency. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is a viticultural practice known to improve grape phenolics and color in red grapes; however, the impact of this practice on grape aromas remains largely unknown. The effects of RDI treatments applied at various berry developmental stages on canopy, yield, and free and glycoside-bound terpenes of the berry were investigated for three consecutive seasons. All RDI treatments reduced leaf photosynthesis and yield, but not when applied after veraison. Berry total soluble solids at harvest were reduced by RDI applied after veraison or throughout the season. Despite reducing berry sugars, RDI applied after veraison increased the concentration at harvest of key free terpenes for Gewürztraminer grapes such as geraniol and citronellol. RDI treatments down-regulated some terpene genes, which indicates that the observed changes in terpene concentration were not transcriptionally regulated. This study suggests that RDI applied after version can potentially improve wine aroma in Gewürztraminer.

Abstract
Interannual climate variability and management practices, including fertigation, can alter volatile compound concentrations in wines from a given grapevine cultivar. These compounds are highly relevant for wine aroma. The current study aimed to assess the effect of two levels of fertigation on the volatile composition and sensory properties of wines from Albariño grown in two vineyards in NW Spain over three years. Treatments were fertigation to 60% (F-60) and 100% (F-100) of crop needs since budbreak, and a rain-fed control (F-0). Volatile compounds were determined through gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and wine sensory evaluation was performed by nine experts using quantitative descriptive analysis. General chemical parameters of wines were similar among treatments; however, F-60 and F-0 slightly reduced volatile total concentrations in both vineyards. Wines from the fertigation treatments had greater concentrations of volatile fatty acids, ethyl esters, acetates and C6 compounds. However, terpene concentrations slightly decreased when fertigation was applied. Higher alcohols showed a different behavior between vineyards, mainly related with grapevine water status during the growing season. Seven sensory descriptors differed significantly between vineyards. This study indicates that fertigation could be a tool for modulating wine chemical and sensory characteristics.
