Contribution to the molecular study of the oxidative stability of white wines of Burgundy
2019
In order to understand and control the aging of wines, particularly white wines, it is necessary to deepen our knowledge about the physico-chemical mechanisms of oxidation related to oxygenation processes. For this, it is important to have tools to quantify the antioxidant capacity of white wines, and to identify the compoiunds involved, in order to anticipate the aging ability of a wine.In this study, analyzes of the antioxidant capacity by DPPH and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) were carried out on a large number of wines during aging and from several vintages, in parallel with metabolomic analyzes, mainly carried out by Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TO…
Sulfites and the Wine Metabolome
2017
International audience; In a context of societal concern about food preservation, the reduction of sulfite input plays a major role in the wine industry. To improve the understanding of the chemistry involved in the SO2 protection, a series of bottle aged Chardonnay wines made from the same must, but with different concentrations of SO2 added at pressing were analyzed by ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) and excitation emission matrix fluorescence (EEMF).Metabolic fingerprints from FT-ICR-MS data could discriminate wines according to the added concentration to the must but they also revealed chemistry-related differences according to the type of stopper, providing a wine me…
Yeast interaction on Chardonnay wine composition: Impact of strain and inoculation time.
2022
Abstract It is of great importance to understand the molecular characteristics and substantial chemical transformations due to yeast-yeast interaction. Non-targeted metabolomics was used to unravel must in fermentation composition, inoculated with non-Saccharomyces (NS) yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S) for sequential fermentation. ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry was able to distinguish thousands of metabolites and provides deep insights into grape must composition allowing better understanding of the yeast-yeast interactome. The dominance of S, characterized by a metabolic richness not found with NS, is dependent on inoculation time and on the yeast species present. Co-inocula…
