Effect of winemaking process and addition of white grapes on the sensory and physicochemical characteristics of young red wines
2008
Background and Aims: This work studies the effect of winemaking process (carbonic maceration (CM) vs destemming) and the effect of grape variety (100% Tempranillo red grapes vs Tempranillo grapes and Viura white grapes) on sensory and physicochemical characteristics of young red wines from Rioja Alavesa. Methods and Results: Nineteen wines distributed in four groups (the four combinations from the two factors) were collected from 12 wineries. Twenty-four sensory attributes and 15 physicochemical parameters were analysed at four time points through 9 months. Data were analysed by analysis of variance and by canonical variate analysis. CM wines were higher in red berry aroma and flavour, alco…
Effect of micro-oxygenation on the evolution of aromatic compounds in wines: Malolactic fermentation and ageing in wood
2009
Abstract The effect of micro-oxygenation on the aromas of two varietal wines (Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon) when alcoholic fermentation is complete was examined. Several factors, such as whether malolactic fermentation (MLF) took place in barrels or stainless steel vats and ageing time in oak barrels, were taken into account. Major aroma components were studied using GC-FID and minor compounds were studied by GC–MS analysis before and after MLF and after 4 and 8 months of maturation in oak barrels. Sensorial analysis was performed to describe and quantify the different wine notes. Micro-oxygenation affects different compounds but the effect depends to a great extent on the grape varie…
Characterization of wine yeast strains of the Saccharomyces genus on the basis of molecular markers: Relationships between genetic distance and geogr…
1996
Summary We identify and characterize 31 Saccharomyces strains from different wine regions, deposited at the Spanish Type Culture Collection, according to mtDNA restriction patterns and chromosomal profiles. By using this kind of information we analyze the correlation between genetic distances and ecological or geographical factors by means of a cluster analysis, assessed by an analysis of the molecular variance (AMOVA). From these analyses, red wine strains are significantly grouped according to their geographic origin, independently of the wine type and the grapevine cultivar, and white wine strians according to ecological factors (wine type of grapevine cultivars). This study also confirm…
Saccharomyces cerevisiae-Oenococcus oeni interactions in wine: current knowledge and perspectives.
2003
Winemaking can be summarized as the biotransformation of must into wine, which is performed principally by Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains during the primary or alcoholic fermentation. A secondary fermentation, the so-called malolactic fermentation (MLF) is a biodeacidification that is often encouraged, since it improves wine stability and quality. Malolactic fermentation usually occurs either spontaneously or after inoculation with selected bacteria after alcoholic fermentation. The main organism responsible for MLF, the lactic acid bacterium Oenococcus oeni, develops in physicochemically harsh conditions, which may lead to MLF failure. Furthermore, yeast that ferment must before or toget…
Molecular Identification and Characterization of Wine Yeasts
2011
The transformation of grape must into wine is a complex microbiological process involving the sequential growth of bacteria and yeasts, although only the yeasts are responsible for alcoholic fermentation. In the past, winemaking was purely empirical, but it is now a well-understood, controlled process that has been gradually improved over time. Advances have largely been made possible by the development of molecular techniques to identify and characterize wine yeasts based on analysis of their DNA. These methods are rapid, reproducible, and sensitive, and continue to be used for a variety of purposes, such as analyzing variation in naturally occurring and inoculated yeast populations, monit…
Analysis of the filtration efficiency of white wines using different filter aids
2010
The global wine market, having recently entered into full crisis, is suffering some changes in its production and marketing. The reasons for these changes are mainly due to new trends in consumer demand for wine safety and quality standards at low cost. Social cellars, in order to be included in this new trend, should focus on the rationalization of the production techniques to reduce the costs and improve the quality of wine. In the case of winemaking for the production of a wine stored in a bag-in-box, filtration is a very important technique because it gives the finished product clearness and stability. The experimentation was based on the application of a low cost filtration technique o…
Malolactic fermentation in white wines
2022
Abstract Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is an important process in wine production and involves the bioconversion of malic acid into lactic acid and CO2. However, many other biochemical reactions occur simultaneously, and several other grape must and wine compounds are also modified besides malic acid. Some can improve quality, while others may be detrimental to sensory quality or health. Among them, there are the synthesis of carbonyl compounds, esters, monoterpenes, volatile phenols, acetamide or mousy odor, methanethiol, dimethyl disulfide, methionol, 3-(methylsulfanyl) propionic acid, citrulline, or biogenic amines. The role of MLF in winemaking is triple: reducing the acidity of the win…
Model of psychosocial intervention in organizations opposed to job stress: operational strategy
2009
Artículos originales [ES] El artículo presenta un modelo de actuación frente a los factores de riesgo psicosociales derivados del estrés laboral. Primeramente relaciona los principales efectos que ocasiona en toda organización el estrés laboral. Al mismo tiempo establece sus prioridades de actuación, para acto seguido indicar las actividades que deben ejecutarse. Dentro de esta fase de actuación, diferencia aquellas que van dirigidas a la organización de forma colectiva, cuya prioridad es manifiesta, frente a las acciones que deben ofrecerse a los afectados de forma individualizada. Así pues, se trata de un modelo de intervención que interactúa tanto en las medidas organizativas generales c…
XBRL
2007
This paper describes the main contributions in relation with the develop of an XBRL (Extensible Business Reporting Language) taxonomy proposed by the PRISMA research group at University UNAB. This taxonomy has been developed for public institutions in Colombia. This taxonomy is based on the information exchange of financial information. It is also described the creation of a wiki system which includes real information of existing XBRL projects in the world and the creation of a demostration center of XBR reports.
