Abstract
Fermentable sugar dosage helps oenologists to establish a harvest's moment and control the fermentation process of the musts. The official analyses recommended for their determination are long, laborious, and must be carried out by specialized personnel. On the contrary, instrumental analysis automation limits human errors, increases precision, and reduces the time and cost of the analyses. In the food production sector, to use methods other than those recommended by supranational bodies in official reports, it is necessary to validate the analytical processes to establish the conformity of the results between the new methods and the reference ones. This work validated an automated enzymatic apparatus to determine the sum of glucose and fructose levels in wine samples. The validation was carried out on wine samples (dry red wine, dry white wine, moderately sweet wine, and sweet wine) containing different sugar concentrations by comparing data obtained using the OIV-MA-AS311-02 method performed by a specialized operator (reference method) and the same method performed by an automated apparatus. The difference between the results' means obtained with the two procedures was significant. Nevertheless, the automated procedure was considered suitable for the intended use since the differences between the averages were lower than the measurement uncertainty at the same concentration, and the repeatability results were better for the automated procedure than the reference method.

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2023; 22:3328-3365. [PMID: 37282812 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Astringency and more generally mouthfeel perception are relevant to the overall quality of the wine. However, their origin and description are still uncertain and are constantly updating. Additionally, the terminology related to mouthfeel properties is expansive and extremely diversified, characterized by common traditional terms as well as novel recently adopted descriptors. In this context, this review evaluated the mention frequency of astringent subqualities and other mouthfeel attributes in the scientific literature of the last decades (2000-August 17, 2022). One hundred and twenty-five scientific publications have been selected and classified based on wine typology, aim, and instrumental-sensorial methods adopted. Dry resulted as the most frequent astringent subquality (10% for red wines, 8.6% for white wines), while body-and related terms-is a common mouthfeel sensation for different wine types, although its concept is still vague. Alongside, promising analytical and instrumental techniques investigating and simulating the in-mouth properties are discussed in detail, such as rheology for the viscosity and tribology for the lubrication loss, as well as the different approaches for the quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the interaction between salivary proteins and astringency markers. A focus on the phenolic compounds involved in the tactile perception was conducted, with tannins being the compounds conventionally found responsible for astringency. Nevertheless, other non-tannic polyphenolic classes (i.e., flavonols, phenolic acids, anthocyanins, anthocyanin-derivative pigments) as well as chemical-physical factors and the wine matrix (i.e., polysaccharides, mannoproteins, ethanol, glycerol, and pH) can also contribute to the wine in-mouth sensory profile. An overview of mouthfeel perception, factors involved, and its vocabulary is useful for enologists and consumers.

Abstract
The present work was aimed at understanding the sensory responses induced by dry white wine modified with increasing concentrations of different sensory active molecules. The tasting panel was composed by 34 trained subjects characterized according to gender, smoking habits, 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) taster status, and sensitivity to tartaric acid, tannic acid and sucrose. Additional taste/mouthfeel responsiveness was evaluated in a basal white wine added of tartaric acid, tannic acid and sucrose. The addition of a fruity odorant mixture to the base white wine enabled the assessment of orthonasal aroma and taste intensities (sweetness, sourness, saltiness). The diversity of taste/mouthfeel responsiveness in water or wine enabled to group individuals as high or low sensitives. Likewise, the tasting panel showed two groups responding differently to aroma and flavor. Both high and low aroma sensitivity individuals showed equal (p>0.05) and congruent response to in-mouth sweet flavor perception. Moreover, the high smell sensitive group was less sensitive to sourness and saltiness than the low smell sensitives for the spiked wines across all flavor concentrations. Differences in PROP taster status and sensitivity to other tastants in water solutions were not correlated with the taste/mouthfeel perceptions in wine. The individuals most sensitive to sucrose in wine taste showed higher response to the fruity aroma. In conclusion, taste, mouthfeel and flavor perceptions showed a high variability among individuals evidencing the advantage of grouping tasters with different chemosensory sensitivities to understand cross-modal sensory interactions.

Interactions between Polyphenols and Volatile Compounds in Wine: A Literature Review on Physicochemical and Sensory Insights. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
Wine polyphenols (PPhs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are responsible for two of the main sensory characteristics in defining the complexity and quality of red wines: astringency and aroma. Wine VOCs’ volatility and solubility are strongly influenced by the matrix composition, including the interactions with PPhs. To date, these interactions have not been deeply studied, although the topic is of great interest in oenology. This article reviews the available knowledge on the main physicochemical and sensory effects of polyphenols on the release and perception of wine aromas in orthonasal and retronasal conditions. It describes the molecular insights and the phenomena that can modify VOCs behavior, according to the different chemical classes. It introduces the possible impact of saliva on aroma release and perception through the modulation of polyphenols–aroma compounds interactions. Limitations and possible gaps to overcome are presented together with updated approaches used to investigate those interactions and their effects, as well as future perspectives on the subject.

Exploring Olfactory-Oral Cross-Modal Interactions through Sensory and Chemical Characteristics of Italian Red Wines. Foods 2020; 9:foods9111530.

Abstract
This work aimed at investigating red wine olfactory–oral cross-modal interactions, and at testing their impact on the correlations between sensory and chemical variables. Seventy-four Italian red whole wines (WWs) from 10 varieties, and corresponding deodorized wines (DWs), were evaluated by sensory descriptive assessment. Total phenols, proanthocyanidins, ethanol, reducing sugars, pH, titratable and volatile acidity were determined. PCA results highlighted different sensory features of the 10 wine types. ANOVAs (p < 0.05) showed that olfactory cues might play modulation effects on the perception of in-mouth sensations with 7 (harsh, unripe, dynamic, complex, surface smoothness, sweet, and bitter) out of 10 oral descriptors significantly affected by odours. Three weak but significant positive correlations (Pearson, p < 0.0001) were statistically found and supported in a cognitive dimension: spicy and complex; dehydrated fruits and drying; vegetal and unripe. In the absence of volatiles, correlation coefficients between sensory and chemical parameters mostly increased. Proanthocyanidins correlated well with drying and dynamic astringency, showing highest coefficients (r > 0.7) in absence of olfactory–oral interactions. Unripe astringency did not correlate with polyphenols supporting the idea that this sub-quality is a multisensory feeling greatly impacted by odorants. Results support the significance of cross-modal interactions during red wine tasting, confirming previous findings and adding new insights on astringency sub-qualities and their predictive parameters.

Abstract
Monoterpenes are aromatic compounds that are of great interest to wine as they are related to the quality of varietal wines. However, there is little information available about the impact of monoterpenes on wine odor perception at sub- or peri-threshold concentrations. The aim of this study was to investigate odor perception of monoterpene isomers in Pinot Gris wine and determine compositional matrix effects. Monoterpene isomers were quantitated in 46 Pinot Gris wines using headspace solid-phase microextraction-multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and sensory analysis was conducted using three different model wines. Results show that the nonvolatile composition of Pinot Gris wine strongly increased the volatility of monoterpene isomers. However, aromatic compounds suppressed odor perception, especially with the more complex monoterpene profiles. Monoterpenes were found to influence some fruity aromas in Pinot Gris. The knowledge of these interactions will further help in the development of wine styles and our understanding of wine quality.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at increasing the understanding of red wine mouthfeel by investigating the potential cross-modal effect of aroma and establishing relationships between sensory dimensions and chemical measurements. Investigations involved a set of 42 non-wooded red wines that were described with a novel application of a variant of the rate-all-that-apply sensory methodology ("rate-K attributes") by a group of Spanish wine experts under two conditions: (1) with no aroma perception (using nose clips) and (2) with aroma perception. In parallel, ethanol content, pH, titratable acidity, tannin activity, concentration of tannins, and spectroscopic measures of wines were determined. Results suggest that aroma does not play a main effect on taste or mouthfeel perception of red wines, except for oily mouthfeel, which was hypothesised to be masked by earthy aromas and enhanced by alcoholic nuances attributed to cognitive interactions. Independent and non-correlated mouthfeel dimensions such as dry/silky and sticky, grainy, prickly or oily were also identified. Tannin activity was shown to be highly positively correlated to dry on the palate, and tannin concentration with both overall dry and dry on the palate. A significant partial least squares regression model showed that tannin concentration and activity (positive contribution) as well as pH values (negative) were good predictors of the mouthfeel dimension mainly related to dry and sticky terms.
