Sánchez-Acevedo E, Lopez R, Ferreira V. Kinetics of aroma formation from grape-derived precursors: Temperature effects and predictive potential. Food Chem 2024; 438:137935. [PMID: 37979268 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137935] [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: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/20/2023]
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
Bouquet is a fascinating wine characteristic that serves as an indicator of wine quality, developing during the aging process. The multifunctional monoterpenol oxidase VvCYP76F14 in wine grapes sequentially catalyzes three reactions to produce (E)-8-carboxylinalool, a crucial precursor for wine bouquet. Previous studies indicated that the activity of VvCYP76F14 derived from different wine grape varieties did not correlate with the amino acid sequence differences. In this study, 54 wine grape varieties were categorized into neutral, aromatic, and full-bodied types based on the sequence differences of VvCYP76F14, closely correlated with the content of wine lactone precursors. Computer modeling and molecular docking analysis of the full-bodied CYP76F14 revealed 17, 19, and 18 amino acid residues in the VvCYP76F14-linalool, VvCYP76F14-(E)-8-hydroxylinalool, and VvCYP76F14-(E)-8-oxolinalool complexes, respectively. Site-directed mutagenesis and in vitro enzyme activity analysis confirmed the substitutions of the key amino acid residues in neutral and aromatic varieties. Notably, the D299 mutation of VvCYP76F14 resulted in the complete loss of (E)-8-oxolinalool and (E)-8-carboxylinalool activities, aligning with the undetectable levels of (E)-8-oxolinalool and (E)-8-carboxylinalool in "Yantai 2-3-37", which harbors the D299T substitution. Favorably, VvCYP76F14 could serve as a cost-effective fingerprint marker for screening superior hybrid offspring with the desired levels of wine lactone precursors.

Abstract
The overall aroma is an important factor of the sensory quality of fruit wines, which attributed to hundreds of volatile compounds. However, the qualitative determination of trace volatile compounds is considered to be very challenging work. GC-Orbitrap-MS with high resolution and high sensitivity provided more possibilities for the determination of volatile compounds, but without the high-resolution mass spectral library. For accuracy of qualitative determination in fruit wines by GC-Orbitrap-MS, a high-resolution mass spectral library, including 76 volatile compounds, was developed in this study. Not only the HRMS spectrum but also the exact ion fragment, relative abundance, retention indices (RI), CAS number, chemical structure diagram, aroma description and aroma threshold (ortho-nasally) were provided and were shown in a database website (Food Flavor Laboratory, http://foodflavorlab.cn/). HRMS library was used to successfully identify the volatile compounds mentioned above in 16 fruit wines (5 blueberry wines, 6 goji berry wines and 5 hawthorn wines). The library was developed as an important basis for further understanding of trace volatile compounds in fruit wines. Measurement(s) | volatile compounds | Technology Type(s) | GC-Orbitrap-MS |

Development of a New Strategy for Studying the Oxygen Consumption Potential of Wine through the Grape Extract Evaluation. Foods 2022; 11:foods11131961.

Abstract
The development of a method to determine the aging potential of wine at the time of harvest, through the evaluation of its oxygen avidity, is a potential tool for the winemaking sector. To this end, it is necessary to formulate a potential wine with this grape prior to alcoholic fermentation. The main objective of this method was to optimize a formulation of the potential wine, based on the grape extracts (GEs), to subsequently evaluate its oxygen consumption kinetics, guaranteeing maximum differentiation between the different GEs. The optimization was carried out with a Taguchi orthogonal matrix design, which optimized the variables to be used in the GE reconstitution. The variables studied were pH, Fe2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, alcohol content and acetaldehyde. The evaluation of the characteristic parameters of the consumption kinetics of each of the GEs allowed us to know the different reconstitution conditions that most influence the differentiation of the oxygen consumption kinetics of very similar GEs. The reconstitution conditions chosen were pH 3.3; 1 mg/L Fe2+; 0.1 mg/L Cu2+; 1 mg/L Mn2+; 12% (v/v) alcoholic strength and 10 mg/L acetaldehyde, with pH, Fe2+ and Mn2+ being the significant conditions. The kinetics of reconstituted GE could be a tool for the classification and evaluation of grapes according to their aging potential or shelf life of the wine made.

Abstract
Grape variety, vinification, and ageing are factors conditioning the aroma of a wine, with volatile secondary metabolites responsible for the so-called grape varietal character. Particularly, grape glycosylated norisoprenoids are mostly responsible for the sensory profile of Tannat wines, making relevant the use of fast instrumental tools to evaluate their concentration, allow classifying grapes and defining the optimum maturity for harvest. NIR spectroscopy is a fast, non-destructive technique, which requires minimal sample preparation. However, its quantitative applications need chemometric models for interpretation. In this work, a NIR-ANN calibration was developed to quantify norisoprenoids in Vitis vinifera cv. Tannat grapes during maturation and harvesting. Glycosidated norisoprenoids were determined by GC-MS. The ANN adjustments showed better performance than linear models such as PLS, while the best calibration was obtained by homogenising grape samples when comparing to grape juice; making possible to fit a model with an error of 146 μg/kg.

Abstract
Flavor perception during food intake is one of the main drivers of food acceptability and consumption. Recent studies have pointed to the oral microbiota as an important factor modulating flavor perception. This review introduces general characteristics of the oral microbiota, factors potentially influencing its composition, as well as known relationships between oral microbiota and chemosensory perception. We also review diverse evidenced mechanisms enabling the modulation of chemosensory perception by the microbiota. They include modulation of the chemosensory receptors activation by microbial metabolites but also modification of receptors expression. Specific enzymatic reactions catalyzed by oral microorganisms generate fragrant molecules from aroma precursors in the mouth. Interestingly, these reactions also occur during the processing of fermented beverages, such as wine and beer. In this context, two groups of aroma precursors are presented and discussed, namely, glycoside conjugates and cysteine conjugates, which can generate aroma compounds both in fermented beverages and in the mouth. The two entailed families of enzymes, i.e., glycosidases and carbon-sulfur lyases, appear to be promising targets to understand the complexity of flavor perception in the mouth as well as potential biotechnological tools for flavor enhancement or production of specific flavor compounds.

Abstract
The sensory features of white peony teas (WPTs) significantly change with storage age; however, their comprehensive associations with composition are still unclear. This study aimed to clarify the sensory quality-related chemical changes in WPTs during storage. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry based on widely targeted metabolomics analysis was performed on WPTs of 1-13 years storage ages. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to correlate metabolites with sensory traits including color difference values and taste attributes. 323 sensory trait-related metabolites were obtained from six key modules via WGCNA, verified by multiple factor analysis. The decline and transformation of abundant flavonoids, tannins and amino acids were related to the reduced astringency, umami and increased browning of tea infusions. In contrast, the total contents of phenolic acids and organic acids increased with storage. This study provides a high-throughput method for the association of chemical compounds with various sensory traits of foods.

Abstract
Wine models with or without a dearomatised and lyophilized red wine extract containing a young red aroma base (control) plus one vector with one or several aroma compounds (unsaturated-aldehydes, saturated-aldehydes, benzaldehyde, isoamyl-alcohol, methoxypyrazines and (Z)-1,5-octadien-3-one) were prepared. Models were spiked with increasing amounts of acetaldehyde whose headspace concentrations were controlled. Odour and nasal chemesthesic properties were assessed by a trained sensory panel. Results confirm the contribution of the different players, notably isoamyl-alcohol, (Z)-1,5-octadien-3-one, benzaldehyde and methoxypyrazines, to wine aroma and tactile nasal characteristics and demonstrate that acetaldehyde levels play an outstanding role in their modulation. At low levels, it can play positive roles in some specific aromatic contexts, while at higher levels, enhance the negative effects associated to the generic presence of other aldehydes (saturated, unsaturated and Strecker aldehydes) by enhancing "green vegetable" notes and "itching" character and the "burning" effects linked to high levels of isoamyl alcohol.

Abstract
Msalais is produced from local grape juice in southern Xinjiang (China), by concentration and natural fermentation. In the current study, we combined partial least-square regression analysis based on sensory quantitative descriptive and odor active values (OAVs), aroma extract dilution analysis, and aroma recombination and omission tests to delineate the unique aromatic characteristics of traditional Msalais. Msalais has strong dried fruit, fruit jam, and fruity odors, intermediate-strength caramel and baked odors, and weak floral and herbaceous odors, attributed to 24 key aromatic compounds with OAV ≥1 or flavor dilution ≥4. Furaneol, methionol, and 5-methylfurfural greatly contribute to the dried fruit, fruit jam, and caramel odors, respectively. β-Phenylethyl alcohol mostly contributes to fruit jam odor. β -Damascenone has a complicated effect on dried fruit, fruit jam, and floral odors. Fruity esters contribute to fruity odor. Floral odor is attributed to terpenes. These findings allow precise improvement of the variable quality of traditional Msalais.

Abstract
Lugana and Verdicchio are two Italian white wines with a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) label. These two wine types are produced in different regions using the same grape variety. The aim of this work is to investigate the existence of volatile chemical markers that could help to elucidate differences between Lugana and Verdicchio wines both at chemical and sensory levels. Thirteen commercial wine samples were analyzed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), and 76 volatile compounds were identified and quantified. Verdicchio and Lugana had been differentiated on the basis of 19 free and glycosidically bound compounds belonging to the chemical classes of terpenes, benzenoids, higher alcohols, C6 alcohols and norisoprenoids. Samples were assessed by means of a sorting task sensory analysis, resulting in two clusters formed. These results suggested the existence of 2 product types with specific sensory spaces that can be related, to a good extend, to Verdicchio and Lugana wines. Cluster 1 was composed of six wines, 4 of which were Lugana, while Cluster 2 was formed of 7 wines, 5 of which were Verdicchio. The first cluster was described as “fruity”, and “fresh/minty”, while the second as “fermentative” and “spicy”. An attempt was made to relate analytical and sensory data, the results showed that damascenone and the sum of 3 of esters the ethyl hexanoate, ethyl octanoate and isoamyl acetate, was characterizing Cluster 1. These results highlighted the primary importance of geographical origin to the volatile composition and perceived aroma of Lugana and Verdicchio wines.
