This study investigated the extent to which commercial winemaking supplements (skin and seed tannins, and mannoprotein (MP)) can enhance the mouthfeel properties of red wine, in particular, wine made from grapes harvested before commercial ripeness (early-harvest). Supplements were added to wines made from Shiraz grapes harvested at 20.8 and 24.5 ◦Brix. The chemical composition and mouthfeel properties of wines were then determined by high performance liquid chromatography and descriptive analysis (DA), respectively. Wines made from riper grapes had higher levels of tannin than wines made from early-harvest grapes, but similar polysaccharide levels were observed.

  • Wine Ph, Copper and 'Reductive' Aromas in Wines
    VITICULTUREAWRI Wine pH, copper and ‘reductive’ aromas in wines By Marlize Z. Bekker, Paul A. Smith, Eric N. Wilkes and Dan Johnson Managing director The Australian Wine Research Institute. PO Box 197, Glen Osmond, South Australia Dan Johnson Managing wine pH is important for nearly all aspects of winemaking, including protection against microbial spoilage, colour stability, tartrate precipitation and wine aroma and flavour. Recent research at the AWRI has investigated the effects of wine pH and the interaction between wine pH and copper on the formation of ‘reductive’ aromas post-bottling in Chardonnay and Shiraz wines. Elevated residual copper concentrations were associated with increased hydrogen sulfide (H2S), methanethiol (MeSH), and carbon disulfide (CS2) concentrations; however, when the pH was lowered to 3.0, significantly less 2H S and MeSH were produced. Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) was not affected by copper additions; however, at lower pH up to 27% less DMS was produced in Shiraz wines after six months of storage. INTRODUCTION AT A GLANCE Certain volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) normally found in • The post-bottling formation of several ‘reductive’ wine are associated with ‘reductive’ aromas, often described as aroma compounds in wine (hydrogen sulfide, rotten egg, sewage, rubber, cooked vegetables and canned corn. methanethiol and carbon disulfide) was significantly The main compounds associated with these aromas are hydrogen affected by elevated copper concentrations. • The effects of added copper on hydrogen sulfide and sulfide (H2S), methanethiol (MeSH) and dimethyl sulfide (DMS). methanethiol formation were decreased when the Carbon disulfide (CS2) may also have a negative impact on wine wine pH was lowered.

  • The Case of Australian Shiraz in the Context of the Australian Domestic
    Regionality and drivers of consumer liking: the case of Australian Shiraz in the context of the Australian domestic wine market. Trent E. Johnson A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Adelaide Faculty of Sciences School of Agriculture, Food and Wine Wine Science and Business Group May 2013 Thesis Summary Understanding the needs of consumers is a fundamental principle of marketing and Shiraz is arguably the most important grape variety produced in Australia, as it is the variety most widely associated, both domestically and globally, with Australia’s wine industry. This three part project examined consumers in the Australian domestic wine market in respect of their liking of Australian Shiraz and provided up to date market intelligence on that market. The first stage of the project consisted of a study that segmented the Australian domestic market using a newly developed Fine Wine Instrument (FWI) that consisted of three variables, as the base. This instrument identified three segments in the market which were denoted: “Connoisseurs”; “Aspirants”; and “No Frills” wine consumers. The Connoisseur segment consumed more wine, spent more money on wine and was more knowledgeable about wine than the other segments identified in the market. The results demonstrated that this segment of consumers was important to the Australian wine industry, as they offered large potential lifetime earnings to the industry. This project also identified a number of stable segments within that market and provided updated information on the market. The next stage introduced the Shiraz variety into the project and was motivated by Wine Australia’s “Regional Heroes” brand segmentation.

Beyond provenance, the sensory experience of fine wine is often linked to consumption with appropriate foods. For this purpose, studies were undertaken to understand consumer perceptions of what constitutes a fine wine, which sensory and chemical factors may define fine Australian Chardonnay and Shiraz wines from various regions, the sensory attributes driving appropriate food and wine pairings, and how these relate to consumer perceptions of provenance, the overall consumer experience and memorability. Methods and Results: An online survey was conducted with Australian wine consumers (n = 349) to generate a consumer driven definition of fine Australian wine (FAW) based on sensory attributes, grape variety, wine region, label information, and food pairing, and to assess how that definition differs

The volatile composition of the wines was assessed through the determination of 76 molecules. After identifying the best matrix and best model for aroma reconstitution studies, omission tests were conducted using the Pivot profile method. For both vintages, 35 molecules with odor activity values (OAVs) above 0.5 were identified. While remarkably high levels of 2-furfurylthiol (FFT) were reported in both wines, rotundone and 3- sulfanylhexanol (3SH) enabled the strongest discrimination between the two wines.

  • Factors Affecting Wine Texture, Taste, Clarity, Stability and Production Efficiency
    Factors affecting wine texture, taste, clarity, stability and production efficiency FINAL REPORT to AUSTRALIAN GRAPE AND WINE AUTHORITY Project Number: AWRI 3.1.4 Principal Investigator: Dr Paul Smith Research Organisation: The Australian Wine Research Institute Date: 22 September 2017 Project 3.1.4 – Factors affecting wine texture, taste, clarity, stability and production efficiency Abstract Wine texture is considered a major product differentiator both for wine style and value in the marketplace. In addition, clarity and colour stability (absence of haze development and the retention of colour) are generally considered to be pre-requisites to market success. Achieving the optimum levels for each of these parameters is often done at significant cost using current technology and does not always ensure the wine will meet its full potential. The ability to modulate these characteristics of wine while retaining the ability to economically process the wine to ensure microbial stability and stylistic integrity is a significant challenge for the wine industry. This project focused on the key compositional drivers behind texture, bitterness, clarity, stability (protein and colour) and wine filterability and developed strategies to modulate them in a production-based environment. Specifically, it covered molecular drivers of taste and texture, ‘smart’ surfaces for efficient production, predicting haze formation, understanding and preventing wine haze, effects of filtering red wines, solids management effects on white wine style and composition, impact of winemaking methods on wine macromolecules and texture, colour development/management and a practical method to determine extractable grape colour and tannin. Executive summary Wine texture is considered a major product differentiator both for wine style and value in the marketplace.

  • The Colour of Red Wine
    THE COLOUR OF RED WINE MARIA JOSEPHINE BIRSE THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE School of Agriculture, Food & Wine Faculty of Sciences A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY APRIL 2007 i Abstract The behaviour of pigments in red wine, namely anthocyanins and anthocyanin- derived pigments, was investigated at natural wine pH, at low pH and after addition of SO 2, namely SO 2 bleaching. An examination of current literature demonstrated absences in wine pigment research. Firstly, few researchers have published the colour properties of a particular wine pigment at different pH values and post-SO 2 bleaching. This was demonstrated using the CIELab colours of two individual anthocyanin-derived wine pigments (4-vinylcatechol and 4-vinylsyringol adducts to malvidin 3-glucoside), and an anthocyanin, malvidin 3-glucoside. The colours of the anthocyanin-derived pigments and their resistance to pH change and SO 2 bleaching were compared to malvidin 3-glucoside which was affected by media. Generally, in the literature, wine pigments are characterized as individual components. But many pigments contribute to wine colour. So, two novel methods were created and demonstrated using red wines: Shiraz wines from four regions in Australia, and Cabernet Sauvignon wines made using two different strains, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC) or Saccharomyces bayanus (SB). The first method can be used to determine the CIELab colour of chromatographically separated wine pigments and allows their colours to be re-created, regardless of their identity. Thus objective measurement of pigment colour at its natural concentration in wine is now possible. An additional method, the “post-column adjustment method” to pH-adjust and SO 2 bleach HPLC-separated wine pigments was created.
