Abstract
The aromatic profile of wine determines its overall final quality, and among the volatile molecules that define it, varietal thiols are responsible for shaping the distinctive character of certain wine varieties. In grape must, these thiols are conjugated to amino acids or small peptides in a non-volatile form. During wine fermentation, yeasts play a principal role in expressing these aromatic compounds as they internalise and cleavage these precursors, releasing the corresponding free and aroma-impacting fraction. Here, we investigate the impact of three wine yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii and Lachancea thermotolerans) on thiol releasing in synthetic grape must fermentations supplemented with different cysteinylated (Cys-4MSP and Cys-3SH) and glutathionylated (GSH-4MSP and GSH-3SH) precursors. We demonstrate higher consumption levels of cysteinylated precursors, and consequently, higher amounts of thiols are released from them compared to glutathionylated ones. We also report a significant impact of yeast inoculated on the final thiols released. Meanwhile T. delkbrueckii exhibits a great 3SHA releasing capacity, L. thermotolerans stands out because of its high 3SH release. We also highlight the synergic effect of the co-inoculation strategy, especially relevant in the case of S. cerevisiae and L. thermotolerans mixed fermentation, that has an outstanding release of 4MSP thiol. Although our results stem from a specific experimental approach that differs from real winemaking situations, these findings reveal the potential of unravelling the specific role of different yeast species, thiol precursors and their interaction, to improve wine production processes in the context of wine aroma enhancement.

Food Chem 2024; 449:139193.

Abstract
The desirable wine aroma compounds 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) and 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate (3SHA) are released during fermentation from non-volatile precursors present in the grapes. This work explores the relative contribution of four precursors (E-2-hexenal, 3-S-glutathionylhexan-1-ol, 3-S-glutathionylhexanal, and 3-S-cysteinylhexan-1-ol) to 3SH and 3SHA. Through the use of isotopically labelled analogues of these precursors in defined fermentation media, new insights into the role of each precursor have been identified. E-2-Hexenal was shown to contribute negligible amounts of thiols, while 3-S-glutathionylhexan-1-ol was the main precursor of both 3SH and 3SHA. The glutathionylated precursors were both converted to 3SHA more efficiently than 3-S-cysteinylhexan-1-ol. Interestingly, 3-S-glutathionylhexanal generated 3SHA without detectable concentrations of 3SH, suggesting possible differences in the way this precursor is metabolised compared to 3-S-glutathionylhexan-1-ol and 3-S-cysteinylhexan-1-ol. We also provide the first evidence for chemical conversion of 3-S-glutathionylhexan-1-ol to 3-S-(γ-glutamylcysteinyl)-hexan-1-ol in an oenological system.

Abstract
This study investigates the accumulation and degradation of aroma molecules released by acid hydrolysis of aroma precursors in winemaking grapes. A first-order kinetics model effectively interprets this accumulation, including subsequent degradation. Experimentation at three temperatures categorizes specific grape-derived aroma molecules into three stability-based groups: labile molecules from labile precursors, stable molecules from labile precursors, and stable molecules from stable precursors. While many grape-derived aromas exhibit similar patterns and levels of accumulation across temperatures, reaction rates significantly increase with temperature. The analysis of 12 samples of two grape varieties hydrolyzed at 50 °C for 5 weeks and 75 °C for 24 h confirms that fast hydrolysis accurately replicates varietal and between-sample aroma compositional differences. Moreover, the accumulated levels of 21 relevant grape-derived aromas strongly correlate with those at 50 °C, indicating that fast hydrolysis at 75 °C reliably predicts grape aroma potential.

Abstract
Varietal thiols have an impact on the overall aroma of many white, rosé, and red wines and beers. They originate from the metabolism of non-odorant aroma precursors by yeast during the fermentation step, via an intrinsic enzyme, the carbon-sulfur β-lyase (CSL, EC 4.4.1.13). However, this metabolism is directly dependent upon efficient internalization of aroma precursors and intracellular CSL activity. Consequently, the overall CSL activity converts on average only 1% of the total precursors available. To improve the conversion of thiol precursors during winemaking or brewing, we investigated the possibility of using an exogenous CSL enzyme from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus produced in Escherichia coli. We first implemented a reliable spectrophotometric method to monitor its activity on different related aroma precursors and studied its activity in the presence of various competing analogues and at different pH values. This study allowed us to highlight the parameters to define CSL activity and structural insights for the recognition of the substrate, which pave the way for the use of exogenous CSL for the release of aromas in beer and wine.

Unravelling copper effect on the production of varietal thiols during Colombard and Gros Manseng grape juices fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1101110.

Abstract
Nowadays the rapidly increasing organic vineyard management with the utilization of copper as sole fungal control pesticide against downy mildew raises once again the question of copper impact on varietal thiols in wine. For this purpose, Colombard and Gros Manseng grape juices were fermented under different copper levels (from 0.2 to 3.88 mg/l) to mimic the consequences in must of organic practices. The consumption of thiol precursors and the release of varietal thiols (both free and oxidized forms of 3-sulfanylhexanol and 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate) were monitored by LC-MS/MS. It was found that the highest copper level (3.6 and 3.88 mg/l for Colombard and Gros Manseng respectively) significantly increased yeast consumption of precursors (by 9.0 and 7.6% for Colombard and Gros Manseng respectively). For both grape varieties, free thiol content in wine significantly decreased (by 84 and 47% for Colombard and Gros Manseng respectively) with the increase of copper in the starting must as already described in the literature. However, the total thiol content produced throughout fermentation was constant regardless of copper conditions for the Colombard must, meaning that the effect of copper was only oxidative for this variety. Meanwhile, in Gros Manseng fermentation, the total thiol content increased along with copper content, resulting in an increase up to 90%; this suggests that copper may modify the regulation of the production pathways of varietal thiols, also underlining the key role of oxidation. These results complement our knowledge on copper effect during thiol-oriented fermentation and the importance of considering the total thiol production (reduced+oxidized) to better understand the effect of studied parameters and differenciate chemical from biological effects.

Abstract
For many years, knowledge on thiol precursors has been limited to S-conjugates of glutathione (G3SH), cysteine (Cys3SH), and later on the dipeptides γ-GluCys and CysGly. In this work, we took the parallel between precursor degradation and the glutathione-mediated detoxification pathway a step further by considering a new type of derivative, 3-S-(N-acetyl-l-cysteinyl)hexanol (NAC3SH). This compound was synthesized and then added to the existing liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method of thiol precursors. This intermediate was only identified during alcoholic fermentation in synthetic must spiked with G3SH (1 mg/L or 2.45 μmol/L) in the presence of copper with concentration above 1.25 mg/L, which demonstrates for the first time the existence of this new derivative (until 126 μg/L or 0.48 μmol/L) and the capacity of the yeast to produce such a compound. Its status as a precursor was also studied during fermentation, in which a release of 3-sulfanylhexanol was noted corresponding to a conversion yield close to 0.6%. This work completed the thiol precursor's degradation pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae in synthetic conditions with a new intermediate, confirming its connection with the xenobiotic detoxification pathway and giving new insights on the precursor's fate.

Abstract
Yeasts undergo intensive metabolic changes during the early stages of fermentation. Previous reports suggest the early production of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is associated with the release of a range of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), as well as the production of varietal thiol compounds 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) and 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate (3SHA) from six-carbon precursors, including (E)-hex-2-enal. In this study, we investigated the early H2S potential, VSCs/thiol output, and precursor metabolism of 11 commonly used laboratory and commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains in chemically defined synthetic grape medium (SGM) within 12 h after inoculation. Considerable variability in early H2S potential was observed among the strains surveyed. Chemical profiling suggested that early H2S production correlates with the production of dimethyl disulfide, 2-mercaptoethanol, and diethyl sulfide, but not with 3SH or 3SHA. All strains were capable of metabolizing (E)-hex-2-enal, while the F15 strain showed significantly higher residue at 12 h. Early production of 3SH, but not 3SHA, can be detected in the presence of exogenous (E)-hex-2-enal and H2S. Therefore, the natural variability of early yeast H2S production contributes to the early output of selected VSCs, but the threshold of which is likely not high enough to contribute substantially to free varietal thiols in SGM.

Abstract
The treatment of white and red crushed grapes by high power ultrasounds (US) represents an emerging technology in winemaking. In 2019, it was officially recognized by OIV through the resolution n°616-2019, and it was also approved by European Union in January 2022. The US effect on extraction mechanisms was widely studied, but more researches are needed to better understand the ultrasound effect on some specific classes of grape compounds. This research aimed to highlight at laboratory scale some specific effects of ultrasounds on some key compounds of white and red grapes. The samples were sonicated at different frequency (20-30 kHz), time (1-10 min), and power (30-90%) technological conditions used in maceration, to obtain valuable information on potential technological transferability. Valuable results were obtained regarding the release of thiols from their precursors, and the reactivity changes of unstable proteins of white wines. The experimental trails on red grape varieties allowed a maintenance of free anthocyanins and no degradative effects were highlighted. Significant and valuable effects were determined also on the tannin polymerization, with an astringency decrease.
The sonication treatment of crushed grapes showed several chemical effects that contribute to decreasing the winemaking inputs and preserving the wine quality. The process conditions must be managed related to grape variety and ripeness for a precision winemaking.

Abstract
Abstract
There is a growing appreciation for the role that yeast play in biotransformation of flavour compounds during beverage fermentations. This is particularly the case for brewing due to the continued popularity of aromatic beers produced via the dry-hopping process. Here, we review the current literature pertaining to biotransformation reactions mediated by fermentative yeasts. These reactions are diverse and include the liberation of thiols from cysteine or glutathione-bound adducts, as well as the release of glycosidically bound terpene alcohols. These changes serve generally to increase the fruit and floral aromas in beverages. This is particularly the case for the thiol compounds released via yeast β-lyase activity due to their low flavour thresholds. The role of yeast β-glucosidases in increasing terpene alcohols is less clear, at least with respect to fermentation of brewer’s wort. Yeast acetyl transferase and acetate esterase also have an impact on the quality and perceptibility of flavour compounds. Isomerization and reduction reactions, e.g. the conversion of geraniol (rose) to β-citronellol (citrus), also have potential to alter significantly flavour profiles. A greater understanding of biotransformation reactions is expected to not only facilitate greater control of beverage flavour profiles, but also to allow for more efficient exploitation of raw materials and thereby greater process sustainability. Key points • Yeast can alter and boost grape- and hop-derived flavour compounds in wine and beer • β-lyase activity can release fruit-flavoured thiols with low flavour thresholds • Floral and citrus-flavoured terpene alcohols can be released or interconverted

Abstract
Volatile polyfunctional thiol compounds, particularly 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) and 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate (3SHA), are key odorants contributing to the aroma profile of many wine styles, generally imparting tropical grapefruit and passionfruit aromas. 3SH and 3SHA are present in negligible concentrations in the grape berry, juice, and must, suggesting that they are released from non-volatile precursors present in the grape. The exploration of the nature and biogenesis of these precursors to 3SH and 3SHA has proven important for the elucidation of polyfunctional thiol biogenesis during alcoholic fermentation. The development and validation of appropriate analytical techniques for the analysis of 3SH precursors in enological matrices have been extensive, and this review explores the analysis and discovery of these precursor compounds. The development of analytical methods to analyze 3SH precursors, from the selection of the analytical instrument, sample preparation, and methods for standardization, will first be discussed, before highlighting how these techniques have been used in the elucidation of the biogenesis of 3SH and 3SHA in grape wines. Lastly, the future of thiol precursor analysis will be considered, with the development of new methods that greatly reduce the sample preparation time and enable multiple precursors, and the thiols themselves, to be quantitated using a single method.

Abstract
Grapes are one of the most valuable fruit crops in the United States and can be processed into a variety of products. The grape and wine industry contributes to and impacts the U.S. agricultural economy. However, rising labor costs and global competition pose challenges for the grape and wine industry. Vineyard mechanization is a promising strategy to increase efficiency and address the labor shortage and cost issues. Recent studies have focused on the impact of vineyard mechanization on general grape and wine quality. Wine phenolics, aroma compounds, and sensory characteristics are the key indicators of wine quality and consumer preference. This article aims to review the impact of vineyard mechanization, specifically mechanical harvesting, mechanical leaf removal, mechanical shoot thinning, cluster thinning, and mechanical pruning on grape and wine phenolics, and aroma compounds and sensory profile. Studies have shown that vineyard mechanization significantly affects phenolic and aroma compounds, especially grape-derived aroma compounds such as volatile thiols, terpenes, C13-norpentadiene, and methoxypyrazine. Mechanically processed grapes can produce wines of the same or better quality than wines made from hand-operated grapes. Vineyard mechanization could be a promising strategy for grape growers to reduce operating costs and maintain or improve grape and wine quality. Future research directions in the area of vineyard mechanization were discussed. It provides a comprehensive view and information on the topic to both grape growers and winemakers in the application of vineyard mechanization.

Abstract
Varietal thiols are important wine aroma compounds that are generally less abundant in red wines. Accentuated cut edges (ACE), known for accelerating phenolic extraction, was applied to Shiraz winemaking and compared with conventional crushing (NOACE) to examine the effects on varietal thiol precursor extraction and thiol formation. Water addition to grape must and skin contact time (SCT) during fermentation were also assessed. Although there was no difference for precursors in the must, ACE significantly decreased 3-S-glutathionylhexan-1-ol concentration during fermentation. 3-Sulfanylhexan-1-ol and ethyl esters were significantly influenced by crushing method and/or SCT, with NOACE or shorter SCT yielding higher concentrations. Acetates, higher alcohols, fatty acids, and isoprenoids differed according to the interaction of crushing method and SCT, with ACE and shorter SCT significantly enhancing all groups except acetates. Volatiles in Sauvignon blanc and Pinot noir wines produced at commercial scale with ACE were briefly evaluated, suggesting an impact of grape variety.

New Precursors to 3-Sulfanylhexan-1-ol? Investigating the Keto-Enol Tautomerism of 3- S-Glutathionylhexanal. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26144261. [PMID: 34299536 PMCID: PMC8303116 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26144261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Revised: 07/09/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
The volatile thiol compound 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) is a key impact odorant of white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc. 3SH is produced during fermentation by metabolism of non-volatile precursors such as 3-S-gluthathionylhexanal (glut-3SH-al). The biogenesis of 3SH is not fully understood, and the role of glut-3SH-al in this pathway is yet to be elucidated. The aldehyde functional group of glut-3SH-al is known to make this compound more reactive than other precursors to 3SH, and we are reporting for the first time that glut-3SH-al can exist in both keto and enol forms in aqueous solutions. At wine typical pH (~3.5), glut-3SH-al exists predominantly as the enol form. The dominance of the enol form over the keto form has implications in terms of potential consumption/conversion of glut-3SH-al by previously unidentified pathways. Therefore, this work will aid in the further elucidation of the role of glut-3SH-al towards 3SH formation in wine, with significant implications for the study and analysis of analogous compounds.

Abstract
cis-2-Methyl-4-propyl-1,3-oxathiane (cis-2-MPO) was recently identified in wine and proposed to arise from the reaction of 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3-SH) and acetaldehyde. However, the evolution profile of cis-2-MPO during alcoholic fermentation (AF) and storage and its relationship with varietal thiols and acetaldehyde production were unknown. These aspects were investigated by fermenting Sauvignon blanc juice with J7 and/or VIN13 yeast strains and assessing the stability of cis-2-MPO during wine storage. Moderate to strong Pearson correlations verified similar evolution trends between acetaldehyde, 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate, and cis-2-MPO, with initial increases and a peak during the early to middle stages of AF before consecutive decreases until the end. Contrarily, 3-SH correlated moderately only at the end of AF. A consistent decrease observed for cis-2-MPO when spiked into Sauvignon blanc wine and assessed during 1-year storage revealed its general instability, but acetaldehyde addition (100 mg/L), pH 3.0, and storage at 4 °C all appeared to retain cis-2-MPO. These results have implications for wine aroma and the potential for cis-2-MPO to act as a sink (or source) for 3-SH in wine over time.

Spotlight on release mechanisms of volatile thiols in beverages. Food Chem 2020; 339:127628.

Abstract
Volatile thiols are very strong-smelling molecules that can impact the aroma of numerous beverages. Several thiols and thiol precursors have been reported previously in different plants used as raw material for beverages, some of which are fermented. We focused on thiols in beverages and their release mechanisms from precursors during processing. Volatile thiols in beverages can be classified aslow molecular weight volatile thiols (e.g. H2S, methanethiol) which impact the smell negatively, and volatile thiols with higher boiling points that contribute positively to the aroma profile. The first part of this review is devoted to volatile thiols, without considering small malodorous molecules. The second part deals with thiol precursors and the different release mechanisms induced by processing (e.g. extraction, roasting or fermentation) and by the growing methods (e.g. viticulture), which can impact on amounts of thiols and their precursors.

Abstract
Volatile thiols are not present in must but are synthesized and released by wine yeasts during alcoholic fermentation. In this study, autochthonous and commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were characterized for the expression of the main genes involved in thiols metabolism and their production in wine. New primer sets were developed on the basis of the S288c genome to evaluate the expression of Cys3, Cys4, MET17 and IRC7 genes. Obtained data revealed the occurrence of some thiols, for example, 4-mercapto-4-methylpentan-2-one (4-MMP) and 3-mercaptohexan-1-ol (3-MH) in Pecorino white wine. All genes were upregulated, but only for IRC7 was found a correlation with 4-MMP release: strains with the highest production showed the highest transcription level. IRC7 gene could be proposed as target for the selection of S. cerevisiae strains to increase thiols content in wine.

Abstract
The effect of ultrasound (20 kHz, 153 μm) on the prefermentation extraction mechanisms in Sauvignon Blanc grapes was studied, focusing on 3-mercaptohexan-1-ol (3MH) and 4-mercapto-4-methyl-pentan-2-one (4MMP) precursors linked to glutathione (GSH) and cysteine (Cys). The treatment determined a positive extraction trend between the duration (untreated, 3 and 5 min) and the conductivity or the concentration of catechins and total phenols, significantly differentiated after 5 min. Nevertheless, the concentration of the thiol precursors in grape juice not only remained undifferentiated, but that of 3-S-glutathionyl mercaptohexan-1-ol showed a negative trend with the treatment time applied (168 ± 43, 156 ± 36, and 149 ± 32 μg/L, respectively, for control, 3 and 5 min). The divergence on the effect between families of compounds suggests an interaction between the sonication treatment and thiol precursor molecules. In order to evaluate the possible degradation properly, ultrasound was applied in a model solution spiked with 3MH and 4MMP precursors, reproducing the conditions of grapes. Except for Cys-3MH, the mean concentration (n = 5) for the rest of the precursors was significantly lower in treated samples, predominantly in those linked to glutathione (~-22% and ~18% for GSH-3MH and GSH-4MMP) rather than to cysteine (~-6%~-8% for Cys-3MH and Cys-4MMP). The degradation of precursors was associated with a significant increase of 3MH and 4MMP. The formation of volatile thiols following sonication is interesting from a technological point of view, as they are key aroma compounds of wine and potentially exploitable in the wine industry through specific vinification protocols.
