Bee Pollen Role in Red Winemaking: Volatile Compounds and Sensory Characteristics of Tintilla de Rota Warm Climate Red Wines.

ABSTRACT: One of the main aspects that define wine quality is its aromatic profile. Nutritional deficiencies in musts can lead to olfactory defects and a decline in quality. Commercial activators and nutrients are usually added to the must in these cases. The natural composition of bee pollen can provide all the necessary nutrients for yeasts. This investigation aims to analyze the impact of pollen addition on the profile of volatile and sensory compounds in Tintilla de Rota warm climate red wines. Volatile compounds were measured by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, Odorant Activity Values analysis to find out each compound's fragrant participation, and sensorial analysis was conducted for a qualified panel of wine-tasters. As a result of the chromatographic analysis, 80 volatile compounds of different chemical families were identified and quantified. Bee pollen increased mainly isoamyl alcohol, esters, and terpenes compounds families in wines. Odorant Activity Values analysis showed an increase in fruity odorant series mainly, followed by floral, for all wines with pollen addition. The sensory analysis showed that low pollen doses (0.1 g/L and 0.25 g/L) increased tasting notes of fruit and floral attributes and fruit and floral odorant series as well, highlighting an increase in red and black fruit notes mainly. On the other hand, high doses deviated the sensory profile towards fleshy stone fruit, and raisin fruit, mostly. In addition, high bee pollen doses produce an increase in the odorant category responsible for the chemical, fatty, and grassy aromas mainly, and high and intermediate dose (1 g/L) an increase in the earthy notes in the aromas. Therefore, low bee pollen doses (0.1 and 0.25 g/L) can improve both the aromatic compound profile, as well as the Odorant Activity Values levels and the sensory profile in Tintilla de Rota red wines.

Project description:Basal leaf removal has been widely practiced to increase cluster sunlight exposure, control berry rot and eventually improve grape berry quality. Early leaf removal performed in cool region appeared to benefit the accumulation of norisoprenoids and monoterpenes. However, effects of this canopy management and leaf moving on volatile profiles and transcriptome of grape berry in warm region characterized with strong sunshine and arid climate were paid less attention. To cope with multiple possible effects caused by global warming, researches in warm region are urgently needed to provide a guide for adjusting the sunlight exposure treatment to adapt the climate change.In Manas county of Xinjiang province, sunlight exposure treatments performed in this study resulted in decreased β-carotene and lutein, which mainly responsible for the reduced norisoprenoids in ripening grapes. Substrate competition due to the up-regulation of VvTPS-a and VvNCED3 may contribute to the decreased concentration of monoterpenes in exposed berries. The notable increased C6 alcohols in the grape berries treated by leaf removal applied at veraison (LR-V), was mainly attribute to the enhanced substrate availability of linoleic acid and linolenic acid together with the higher expression of VvLOXO and VvADH1. Free C6 aldehyde was reduced by half leaf removal applied at veraison (HLR-V), leaf moving at veraison (LM-V) and leaf removal applied at berry pepper-corn size (LR-PS). Moreover, transcriptomic analysis indicated that both LR-V and LM-V treated grape berry implemented multiple stress-mitigation strategies to acclimate the improved sunlight exposure. Interestingly, photosynthesis-related genes in grape berry were primarily up-regulated by LR-V as a consequence of carbohydrate source removal rather than improved sunlight exposure. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) suggested that the genes encoding malate synthase and 3-oxoacyl-(acyl carrier protein) reductase show a significant correlation with the accumulation of C6 alcohol.
