Submitted for publication: September 2005 Accepted for publication: April 2006 Key words: Non-Saccharomyces, yeasts, vineyards, cellars, fermentation, wine. The contribution by the numerous grape-must-associated non-Saccharomyces yeasts to wine fermentation has been debated extensively. These yeasts, naturally present in all wine fermentations, are metabolically active and their metabolites can impact on wine quality. Although often seen as a source of microbial spoilage, there is substantial contrary evidence pointing to a positive contribution by these yeasts. The role of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in wine fermentation is therefore receiving increasing attention by wine microbiologists in Old and New World wine producing countries. Species that have been investigated for wine production thus far include those from the Candida, Kloeckera, Hanseniaspora, Zygosaccharomyces, Schizosaccharomyces, Torulaspora, Brettanomyces, Saccharomycodes, Pichia and Williopsis genera. In this review the use and role of non-Saccharomyces yeast in wine production is presented and research trends are discussed. INTRODUCTION roles of the numerous non-Saccharomyces yeasts normally asso- ciated with grape must and wine. These yeasts, naturally present Wine is the product of a complex biological and biochemical in all wine fermentations to a greater or lesser extent, are meta- interaction between grapes (grape juice) and different microor- bolically active and their metabolites can impact on wine quality. -

Journal of Engineering Science Vol. XXV, no. 4 (2018), pp. 82 - 93 Fascicle Food engineering ISSN 2587-3474 Topic Biotechnologies, Food Chemistry and Food Safety eISSN 2587-3482 DOI:10.5281/zenodo.2576746 CZU 663.221:634.85(4) THE DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION BEHAVIOR OF WHITE WINES PRODUCED FROM LOCAL AND EUROPEAN GRAPE VARIETIES USING SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHOD Iurie Scutaru*, Anatol Balanuta, Dan Zgardan Technical University of Moldova, Department of Oenology, Chisinau, Republic of Moldova *Corresponding author: Iurie Scutaru, [email protected] Received: November, 2, 2018 Accepted: December, 18, 2018 Abstract: The article deals with the oxidation processes of experimental wines produced from indigenous grape varieties Legenda, Viorica and European grapes Chardonnay, Sauvignon. The browning processes in wine are corelated with oxidation of hydroxycinnamates (hydroxycinnamic acids and their tartaric esters, HCAs) ‒ the most important group of phenolic compounds in white wines. The potential degree of wine colour changes has been appreciated using Polyphenols Oxidative Medium test (POM-test). The oxidative crocin bleaching (CBA – Crocin Bleaching Assay) has been studied using the method of competition kinetics. The comparative antioxidant capacity of wines has been determined with peroxy radicals 2,2'-Azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH). Key words: antioxidant capacity, crocin oxidative bleaching, flavonoids, hydroxycinnamates, phenolic compounds, POM-test, wine oxidation. Introduction The biggest part of Moldovan wines are produced from European grape varieties, that are adapted to local growing conditions. These grape varieties are: Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Merlot etc. At the same time, recently, in Republic of Moldova, much attention has been given to the goal of using the potential of old local grape varieties (Feteasca Alba, Feteasca Regala, Feteasca Neagra, Rara Neagra) and new grape varieties (Viorica, Legenda, Riton). -
Wine That Stinks As Part of Our Winemaking Coursework at UCC We
Wine that Stinks As part of our winemaking coursework at UCC we study sensory science, the science of how humans perceive smells and tastes with respect to wine. This is one of my favorite classes to teach because it was the interesting smells and tastes in different wines which initially stirred my passion for wine and eventually inspired me to change careers from engineering to winemaking. One of the most interesting parts about teaching the sensory science class is our laboratory session on wine faults. In this lab, perhaps more so than others, the students are very excited to get the opportunity to smell and understand fault aromas, and I’m also excited to show them the stinkiest examples of faulty wine I can find. It seems to be a natural human impulse that when we find something uncharacteristically pungent we want to share it with others: “Wow this is disgusting; you’ve got to smell this!” A couple of recent experiences reminded me of my wine fault lab samples. In the first experience I was at a family reunion when several relatives asked if I’d ever had the wines of a particular Washington winery. One of their high school classmates was married to the winemaker and they were interested in my impression of the wines. I replied that I had only one opportunity to taste the wine of this producer (the price of these wines is usually beyond my budget), but that unfortunately the particular bottle I had tried was “corked,” so I was unable to give them my impression of the wine. -

Analysis of Vocs in Wine by Purge & Trap Concentrations and GC/MS
Analysis of Volatile Organic Compounds in Wine by Purge and Trap Concentration and Gas Chromatography/ Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) Introduction Many of the flavors and fragrances which make up a wine’s profile consist of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These chemicals, even at small concentrations can affect the flavor and aroma of a wine. Many subjective descriptors are used such as buttery, a hint of oak, peppery, vanilla, and so on. Wine flavors and aromas can be organized into three primary groups: fruit; floral; and herbal, spice, and earth.1 VOCs are produced at different times in the winemaking process. For instance, VOCs accumulate in the grape as the grape seed matures and as the fruit ripens by binding to other molecules such as sugars and amino acids. Winemakers release these compounds by breaking Eclipse 4760 P&T and 4100 Autosampler the bonds: both physically by crushing the grapes and chemically during fermentation with grape and yeast enzymes.2 Traditionally, the detection of VOCs has been accomplished by the oenologist through taste and smell. There is growing interest in using chemical analysis to identify and quantitate the VOCs in the various stages of the winemaking process. For example, esters can add fruit and flower notes; terpenes can add piney, rose, and lavender notes; and organic acids can add sour, vinegary notes.1 The use of GC/MS may lead to identification of previously unknown VOCs in wine as well as help winemakers make adjustments to the growing and winemaking techniques based upon scientific data. Many VOCs can be analyzed by purge and trap concentration and detection by GC/MS. -

One of these species,Saccharomyces uvarum, is typically described as a cryotolerant yeast that produces relatively high levels of glycerol and rose-scented volatile compounds as compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the main yeast in winemaking. Comparisons of fermentative and chemical properties between S. uvarum and S. cerevisiae at the species level are relatively common; however, a paucity of information has been collected on the potential variability present among S. -
FT Qi No[Ox] (EN)
DATA SHEET VINIFICATION - CLARIFICATION Qi No[OX] is an ‘’alternative to casein’’ and, to that end, the first non-allergenic, biodegradable formulation that contains no substances from animal or artificial origins. It has been developed especially for its anti-oxidant properties, whether with must or with wine. ŒNOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS Qi No[OX] is a 'technological auxiliary' consisting of polysaccharides of vegetable origin (by-products of chitin) and bentonite that assists the rapid sedimentation of the complex. Qi No[OX] has been developed especially to be used with both must and wine. It is intended for musts of white wine that have a tendency to oxidation (e.g., spoiled grape harvests) or for wines, even when oxidated. Qi No[OX] helps remove the brown colouration that forms a visual wine fault. It removes caramel and Madeira notes, bringing freshness to the wine, whilst reducing the vegetal notes and bitterness often associated with oxidation problems. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE Disperse Qi No[OX] in 10 times its own volume of water over about an hour whilst stirring. There must be no lumps. Incorporate this suspension into the must or wine through the top of the barrel and blend it in by drawing off and returning the entire volume of the barrel. Rack off the preparation after sedimentation is complete (about 16 hours for settlement with must or one to two weeks with wine). With wine, we recommend carrying out preliminary trials to find the exact quantities needed to rebalance the wine. DOSE RATE • Must: 30 to 80 g/100L, from the moment the grape juice begins to flow, right up to settlement. -
