- ItemA Complete Analysis Pipeline for the Processing, Alignment and Quantification of HPLC–UV Wine Chromatograms(Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, 2024-03) Ianeselli A; Longo E; Poggesi S; Montali M; Boselli EElucidating the chemistry of wine would help defining its quality, chemical and sensory characteristics and optimise the wine-making processes. High-performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV–Vis spectroscopy (HPLC–UV–Vis) is a common analysis method used to obtain the molecular profile of wine samples. We propose a complete procedure for the analysis of wine chromatograms. Data are pre-processed using standard methods of down-sampling, smoothing and baseline subtraction. Multiple samples are then merged in a three-dimensional tensor, decomposed using parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC2) into three factors: (i) one reduced (rank-one) chromatogram per sample, (ii) an estimate of the samples’ spectral UV–Vis profile and (iii) an estimate of the samples’ concentrations. If the decomposition is performed on a single peak of the tensor, the second and third factors correspond to the representative wavelength spectrum and to the relative concentrations of the samples, respectively. Otherwise, when multiple peaks are analysed, further processing is required. In the latter case, the decomposed rank-one chromatograms are peak-detected and aligned, clustered and integrated. A table containing the concentration of the peaks at different retention times is obtained. The pipeline proposed in this study is a guideline for a quantitative and reproducible chemical analysis of wine, or other samples, via the HPLC–UV–Vis method.
- ItemAcoustic Multi-Detection of Gliadin Using QCM Crystals Patterned with Controlled Sectors of TEM Grid and Annealed Nanoislands on Gold Electrode(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 20/04/2020) Casari Bariani G; Zhou L; Poggesi S; Mittapalli R; Manzano M; Ionescu RECeliac diseases are a group of gluten ingestion-correlated pathologies that are widespread and, in some cases, very dangerous for human health. The only effective treatment is the elimination of gluten from the diet throughout life. Nowadays, the food industries are very interested in cheap, easy-to-handle methods for detecting gluten in food, in order to provide their consumers with safe and high-quality food. Here, for the first time, the manufacture of controlled micropatterns of annealed gold nanoislands (AuNIs) on a single QCM crystal (QCM-color) and their biofunctionalization for the specific detection of traces of gliadin is reported. In addition, the modified quartz crystal with a TEM grid and 30 nm Au (Q-TEM grid crystal) is proposed as an acoustic sensitive biosensing platform for the rapid screening of the gliadin content in real food products.
- ItemChemosensory Profile of South Tyrolean Pinot Blanc Wines: A Multivariate Regression Approach(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 15/10/2021) Poggesi S; Dupas de Matos A; Longo E; Chiotti D; Pedri U; Eisenstecken D; Robatscher P; Boselli EA multivariate regression approach based on sensory data and chemical compositions has been applied to study the correlation between the sensory and chemical properties of Pinot Blanc wines from South Tyrol. The sensory properties were identified by descriptive analysis and the chemical profile was obtained by HS-SPME-GC/MS and HPLC. The profiles of the most influencing (positively or negatively) chemical components have been presented for each sensory descriptor. Partial Least Square Regression (PLS) and Principal Component Regression (PCR) models have been tested and applied. Visual (clarity, yellow colour), gustatory (sweetness, sourness, saltiness, bitterness, astringency, and warmness) and olfactory (overall intensity, floral, apple, pear, tropical fruit, dried fruit, fresh vegetative, spicy, cleanness, and off-odours) descriptors have been correlated with the volatile and phenolic profiles, respectively. Each olfactory descriptor was correlated via a PCR model to the volatile compounds, whereas a comprehensive PLS2 regression model was built for the correlation between visual/gustatory descriptors and the phenolic fingerprint. "Apple" was the olfactory descriptor best modelled by PCR, with an adjusted R2 of 0.72, with only 20% of the validation samples falling out of the confidence interval (α = 95%). A PLS2 with 6 factors was chosen as the best model for gustatory and visual descriptors related to the phenolic compounds. Finally, the overall quality judgment could be explained by a combination of the calibrated sensory descriptors through a PLS model. This allowed the identification of sensory descriptors such as "olfactory intensity", "warmness", "apple", "saltiness", "astringency", "cleanness", "clarity" and "pear", which relevantly contributed to the overall quality of Pinot Blanc wines from South Tyrol, obtained with two different winemaking processes and aged in bottle for 18 months.
- ItemDecoding the Identity of Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir Wines: A Comprehensive Chemometric Fusion of Sensory (from Dual Panel) and Chemical Analysis(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2023-12-20) Darnal A; Poggesi S; Longo E; Arbore A; Boselli E; Corona OQuantitative relations between the sensory overall quality (OQJ) of commercial single grape variety Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir wines, defined using specific sensory attributes, and the most influencing chemical components were investigated in commercial wines from different international origins. Multiple factor analysis (MFA) was applied to achieve a comprehensive map of the quality of the samples while multivariate regression models were applied to each varietal wine to determine the sensory attributes influencing OQJ the most and to understand how the combinations of the volatile compounds influenced the olfactory sensory attributes. For Pinot Gris wine, OQJ was positively correlated with sensory attributes, like "floral" aroma, "stone-fruit" flavor, "yellow" color, "caramelized" aroma, and "tropical fruit" aroma according to an Italian panel. For Pinot Noir wine, "licorice" aroma, "cloves" aroma, "fresh wood" aroma, "red fruit" flavor, "cherry" aroma, and "spicy" flavor were positively correlated with OQJ by the same panel. Important predictors for the wine quality of Pinot Gris could be characterized, but not for Pinot Noir. Additionally, sensory tests were also carried out by different panel compositions (German and Italian). Both the German and the Italian panels preferred (based on OQJ) a Pinot Gris wine from New Zealand (Gisborne), but for different perceived characteristics (fruity and aromatic notes by the Italian panel and acidity by the German panel). For Pinot Noir, different panel compositions influenced the OQJ of the wines, as the wines from Chile (with more spicy, red fruit and woody notes) were preferred by the Italian panel, while the German panels preferred the wines from Argentina (with light, subtle woody and red fruit notes). The profile of cyclic and non-cyclic proanthocyanidins was also evaluated in the two varietal wines. No clear effect of the origin was observed, but the wines from Italy (Sicily/Puglia) were separated from the rest and were characterized by percentage ratio chemical indexes (%C-4) and (%C-5) for both varieties.
- ItemEffects of Microvibrations and Their Damping on the Evolution of Pinot Noir Wine during Bottle Storage(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 8/09/2022) Poggesi S; Merkytė V; Longo E; Boselli EEnvironmental conditions such as vibrations, temperature, and exposure to light can lower the quality of bottled wine, causing great economic and image losses for wineries. Even under optimal storage conditions, environmental microvibrations can be a constant source of energy transfer to the stored bottles, and little is known about their effects over time. In this study, the effects of microvibrations on a fine Pinot noir wine were evaluated over a storage period of one year under controlled conditions and compared with those obtained using natural magnetic levitation as a damping technique to reduce the power transmitted by the vibrations. The wines were subjected to the treatments according to the following experimental set-up: (A) wines not exposed to microvibrations, but to natural magnetic levitation; (B) wines placed on a shelf in contact with the floor, and exposed to microvibrations; (C) controls, a shelf in direct contact with the floor, without the application of microvibrations; (D) wines on a shelf with natural magnetic levitation and exposed to microvibrations. Phenolic and volatile compounds were not significantly different between treatments, which is in line with the reduced energy stress applied. In contrast, the storage time significantly influenced these chemical profiles. Through the sensory analysis performed after 0 and 12 months of storage, it was possible to distinguish the wines, as the overall quality improved, especially for the microvibration-treated samples. After 12 months of storage: (a) the overall sensory quality improved for all wines compared to the samples at T0; (b) the damping of microvibrations reduced the rate of wine evolution; (c) treatment with microvibration up to 6 months was useful for improving the quality of wine not yet ready for the market. Therefore, modulation of wine evolution can be achieved by applying a combination of microvibrations and their damping, depending on the enological objective.
- ItemEffects of pre- and post-fermentative practices on oligomeric cyclic and non-cyclic condensed tannins in wine from Schiava grapes(Elsevier B V, Amsterdam, 2023) Darnal A; Poggesi S; Ceci AT; Mimmo T; Boselli E; Longo E; Sun QThe effects of a) pre-fermentative freezing of the grapes (- 20 °C for two weeks); b) inoculation of the grape must with Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, or co-inoculation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast and Oenococcus oenibacteria; c) vinification with or without fermentative maceration, and d) cold stabilization with or without bentonite treatment, were studied on the profile of oligomeric condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins, PAC) with non-cyclic or macrocyclic structures in wines made from Schiava cv., a red grape variety. The samples were evaluated just before inoculation and at the bottling of the wine. Commercial Schiava wines from two different producers stored at six and eighteen months were also studied for the effect of artificially introduced dissolved oxygen, and half of these bottles were subjected to periodic mechanical stress for one year, to see the effects on the PAC profile. Freezing of the grapes increased the extraction of all non-cyclic PAC in the must, whereas tetrameric, pentameric, and hexameric cyclic procyanidins (m/z 1153, m/z 1441, m/z 1729, respectively) were not affected; only a tetrameric cyclic prodelphinidin (m/z 1169) showed a more similar trend to the non-cyclic PAC. In wines at bottling, cyclic procyanidins were higher in wines obtained by fermentative maceration (as well as most non-cyclic congeners); however, the significance of these differences depended on specific interactions between the factors. In contrast, no effect was found on the cyclic tetrameric prodelphinidin (m/z 1169). Bentonite treatment showed no significant effect on either oligomeric non-cyclic or cyclic PAC profiles. The addition of dissolved oxygen led to a significant decrease in non-cyclic trimeric and tetrameric PAC in the samples with respect to the control ones; however, the addition of dissolved oxygen did not influence the profile of the cyclic PAC. This study sheds new light on the substantial differences in the behaviour of the cyclic and non-cyclic oligomeric PAC in red wine in relation to the vinification process and in the bottle. Cyclic oligomeric PAC were more stable and less influenced by applied factors than linear PAC, again proving to be potential markers for the grape variety of wine.
- ItemEffects of transport conditions on the stability and sensory quality of wines(International Viticulture and Enology Society - IVES, 30/04/2021) Tchouakeu Betnga PF; Longo E; Poggesi S; Boselli EThe quality of wine can be affected by several factors after bottling: temperature changes, shipment time, type and amount of mechanical stress (vibrations) and environmental conditions, such as light exposure and relative humidity. The effects of delivery using different packaging systems (boxes, bottles, containers) and the impacts of mode of shipment (car, truck, airplane and cargo ship) are reviewed, along with compositional markers, the reactions leading to off-odours and/or off-flavours and the approaches to monitoring transportation conditions (temperature, relative humidity and type and entity of vibration) and their impacts on the sensory profile of the wine. Temperature fluctuations are more prevalent during the transport of wine over land than by sea, and may lead to a decrease in the fresh, fruity and floral aromas of the wine and to premature aging due to the ‘pump’ effect (repeated expansion and contraction cycles). Trans-shipment phases should be reduced to a minimum, especially in hot climates. Vibrations, even for a short period of time (15 days), can alter the overall quality of the product.
- ItemEnantioselective-GCxGC determination of α-terpinyl ethyl ether in wine: Quantitative analysis and identification of main terpene precursors(Elsevier B.V., 2024-10-18) Darnal A; Ceccon A; Magni M; Robatscher P; Poggesi S; Boselli E; Longo EThe present study investigates the presence of α-terpinyl ethyl ether in wine and gives insights on the chemical processes leading to its formation. The analytical determination of (S)-α-terpinyl ethyl ether and (R)-α-terpinyl ethyl ether enantiomers was obtained by enantioselective comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography. Applying the two isomers as variables in combination with closely related terpenes, an accurate classification model of wines for the grape variety was successfully applied to a representative set of single-variety wine samples. Although presenting relatively low absolute concentrations, α-terpinyl ethyl ether (along with α-terpineol) resulted to be an inevitable and irreversible degradation product of linalool. In fact, a conversion study from enantiomerically pure (R)-linalool showed a major loss of the initial chiral configuration, i.e. only a very small enantiomeric excess characterized the product. α-Terpineol itself was also confirmed to be a precursor of α-terpinyl ethyl ether, however this process showed a smaller conversion over two weeks than from linalool, and without losses of the initial chiral configuration. In the real samples, the concentration of α-terpinyl ethyl ether was found to be much lower than that of α-terpineol, regardless of the alcohol-to-water ratio. Finally, olfactory descriptors were qualitatively attributed to each α-terpinyl ethyl ether enantiomer.
- ItemEnhancing the stability of a red organic wine through hydroxytyrosol supplementation at bottling: A time-dependent analysis(Elsevier B.V., 2024-09-24) Ceci AT; Darnal A; Poggesi S; Betnga PFT; Longo E; Nicolodi R; Davis R; Walsh M; O'Connor KE; Altieri EA; Trevisan F; Mimmo T; Boselli EThe effect of the addition of hydroxytyrosol (HT) in a red organic wine (Sangiovese 85 % and Cabernet Sauvignon 15 %) was evaluated. After six months of storage in a concrete tank, the wines were spiked with HT in three different amounts (30, 60, 120 mg/750 mL in wine) and compared with a control bottled wine (no HT addition). The bottled wines were stored at room temperature and were opened after a period of one, three, six, nine and twelve months to perform chemical and sensory analyses (T1, T3, T6, T9, and T12, respectively). Storage time was the factor that most influenced all wines parameters with respect to the different treatments. However, wine added with 60 and 120 mg/750 mL HT had a lower amount of acetic acid than the control at T3 and T6. At T6, the measured HT was negatively correlated with acetic acid (R2 = 0.81), thus suggesting that HT preserved the wine from oxidation. Later, this trend was not confirmed. The content of HT spiked was stable over twelve months of bottle storage; only the endogenous HT, which is naturally present in wine, showed a decrease of 44 % after twelve months of bottle storage. Yellowness (b*) was higher in the 30 mg/750 mL at T9 compared to the other samples. Lightness (L*) showed a decrement of 11 %, while a* (redness) increased by 21 % from T1 to T12. After T6, the wine fortified with 120 mg/750 mL was preferred by the sensory panel; however, it was the only sample to be clustered by the panel at T9 and "red fruits," "spicy", and "astringency" sensory attributes played an important role in this separation.
- ItemFusion of 2DGC-MS, HPLC-MS and Sensory Data to Assist Decision-Making in the Marketing of International Monovarietal Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc Wines(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2022-11) Poggesi S; Darnal A; Ceci AT; Longo E; Vanzo L; Mimmo T; Boselli E; Mateus NMonovarietal wines produced in different wine-growing areas may have completely different sensory profiles. As a result, they may be suitable for sale in different regions, depending on local preferences. Better insight into the sensory and chemical profiles of these wines can be helpful in further optimizing commercial strategies and matching supply and demand, which is the main challenge for global wine traders. The training of dedicated sensory panels, together with the correlation of the evaluated attributes with chemical parameters, followed by validation of the obtained models, may yield an improved picture of the overall features associated with products from a specific region. Eighteen samples of international Chardonnay and eighteen samples of international Sauvignon Blanc wines were collected from nine world origins (Northern Italy, Southern Italy, Chile, Argentina, New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa). The overall quality judgement (OQJ) and the sensory attributes were evaluated by a panel trained with a MRATA (Modified Rate-All-That-Apply) method. Moreover, volatile compounds were analysed by HS-SPME-GC × GC-ToF/MS and the phenolic composition, including proanthocyanidins, was determined using HPLC-QqQ/MS. The processing of the data using different multivariate analysis methods, such as multiple factor analysis (MFA), was essential to gain insight into the quality of the samples. The profile of cyclic and non-cyclic oligomeric proanthocyanidins was found to be substantially dependent on the grape variety used in the wines (varietal markers), despite the country of origin of the wine influencing it to a limited extent. The results from the same samples analysed by a sensory panel from Germany and ours were qualitatively compared, highlighting the presence of potential factors inherent to the panels themselves that could influence the different judgments and quality classification of the wines. Consequently, the combination of sensory and chemical analysis, by means of the application of multivariate statistical methods presented in this study proves to be a powerful tool for a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the quality of the wines under investigation. Overall quality was described as a combination of the sensory attributes, according to the perception process. The attributes were in turn described based on the chemical profiles, which were determined independently by analytical techniques. Eventually, this approach can be very useful not only for basic research on wine quality but also as a tool to aid business-related decision-making activities of wineries and wine traders and to create models that can aid the refinement of marketing strategies.
- ItemHow distinctive are ‘Gewürztraminer’ vineyard terroirs in South Tyrol for wine production? A metabolomics-based approach(Elsevier B.V., 2024-07-17) Duley G; Ferretti CG; Morozova K; Longo E; Imperiale S; Ding Y; Poggesi S; Scampicchio M; Boselli EVitis vinifera L. ‘Gewürztraminer’ produces distinctive, aromatic wines that are strongly influenced by their terroir. This metabolomic study used a data-driven approach, including Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Multifactorial Analysis (MFA), to correlate a quali-quantitative multivariate concept of terroir (including soil characteristics, and altitude) with sensory, phenolic, antioxidant, and volatile profiles of wines. The study analyzed wines from seven ‘Gewürztraminer’ vineyards, chosen to minimize the variability due to climate differences. Based on the soil data, the vineyards were clustered into two distinct groups: clay silicate (Group A) and dolomitic (Group B) soils. Group A exhibited lower levels of aromatic compounds such as linalool and higher levels of phenolic compounds such as gallocatechin than Group B. These findings indicate that even small changes in terroir within the same region can significantly impact the chemical, functional (antioxidant), and sensory properties of ‘Gewürztraminer’ wines, highlighting the importance of terroir in wine production. Statistical analyses confirmed the significance of these correlations (p < 0.05), highlighting the need for further research into the intricate relationship between terroir and wine quality.
- ItemHow does the application of ultrasound energy influence the ageing of a bottled red wine?(Elsevier B.V., 2024-10-19) Duley G; Poggesi S; Longhi L; Longo E; Boselli EA red wine that had aged in bottle for five years was treated with ultrasound (40 kHz) for 5 min and 30 min twice weekly and analysed after 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Sensory analysis showed differences in overall quality at months 3 and 6, with the ultrasound-treated wines preferred. The ultrasound treatment did not decrease the free sulfur dioxide content. Differences in anthocyanins, polyphenols, and proanthocyanidins were clearest at month 9. In contrast, differences in the volatile profile were clearest at month 3. From a commercial point of view, the low-energy treatment (5 min) might be preferable given the lower costs. Ultrasound treatment was effective in enhancing the overall quality during the first 6 months of bottle storage in an aged red wine and did not increase the risk of oxidation or microbial spoilage. This work made it possible to fine-tune ultrasound treatment to maximise its positive effects.
- ItemInteractive effect of pre-fermentative grape freezing and malolactic fermentation on the anthocyanins profile in red wines prone to colour instability(Springer Nature, 2023-08-01) Darnal A; Poggesi S; Ceci AT; Mimmo T; Boselli E; Longo EThe effects of pre-fermentative freezing of red grapes from Schiava variety and co-inoculation with lactic bacteria were evaluated on the profile of anthocyans of the musts and the finished wine. Peonidin-3-glucoside is the main anthocyanin in Schiava grape musts, but it was overcome by malvidin-3-glucoside at bottling. Grape freezing increased the extraction of all anthocyanins in the musts. However, the amount of all anthocyanins except peonidin-3-glucoside and malvidin-3-glucoside was lower in wines from frozen grapes than in control wines. Wines obtained with co-inoculation showed higher anthocyanin content than their respective controls. Petunidin-3-(6′′-p-coumaroyl)-glucoside, peonidin-3-(6′′-cis-p-coumaroyl)-glucoside and malvidin-3-(6′′-trans-p-coumaroyl)-glucoside were dramatically affected by the interaction of the two applied factors. Colorimetric hue (H*) was strongly correlated with peonidin-3-glucoside, and spectrophotometric tint (N) with malvidin-3-glucoside. Tint also showed a positive correlation with malolactic fermentation. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]
- ItemPatterning Large-Scale Nanostructured Microarrays on Coverslip for Sensitive Plasmonic Detection of Aqueous Gliadin Traces(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2022-02) Casari Bariani G; Zhou L; Poggesi S; Manzano M; Ionescu REUser-friendly devices for detecting low gliadin content in commercial foods are of extreme importance for people with gluten diseases. With this concern, the present work proposes a rapid and sensitive optical nanostructured microarrays platform for the detection of gliadin using specific anti-gliadin IgG antibodies immobilized on annealed gold nanostructures (AuNPs) obtained after the high annealing process (550◦C) of gold thin films evaporated on commercial glass coverslips. Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) immunosensing of gliadin in the range of 0.1 ppm to 1000 ppm is successfully achieved. In addition, the biofunctionalization protocol was used for gluten screening in five food complex products.
- ItemQuartz crystal microbalance genosensing of brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast in wine using a rapid and efficient drop and collect protocol(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2021-05-18) Poggesi S; Zhou L; Bariani GC; Mittapalli R; Manzano M; Ionescu RE; Guo P; Portalone G; Pirri FA miniaturized quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) genosensor is proposed for sensitive and real-time detection of short ssDNA sequences (53 bp) or DNA extracted from Brettanomyces bruxellensis (Brett) yeast cells. The presence of Brett yeast causes a depreciation of the quality of aged fine wines, producing molecules of unpleasant odors and biogenic amines that are harmful to human health. More specifically, standard quartz crystal (S-QCM) and homemade 4 nm gold transmission electron microscopy (TEM)-grid patterned quartz (multi-TEM QCM) are herein proposed for biofunctionalization steps with different ssDNA sequences. By employing a rapid and efficient drop and collect protocol, the specific detection of 1 pg/µL ssDNA Brett of a short sequence and 100 ng/µL DNA of B. bruxellensis extracted from a wine sample (VR2008) is reported.
- ItemRobust SERS Platforms Based on Annealed Gold Nanostructures Formed on Ultrafine Glass Substrates for Various (Bio)Applications(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2019-06) Zhou L; Poggesi S; Casari Bariani G; Mittapalli R; Adam P-M; Manzano M; Ionescu REIn this study, stable gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are fabricated for the first time on commercial ultrafine glass coverslips coated with gold thin layers (2 nm, 4 nm, 6 nm, and 8 nm) at 25 °C and annealed at high temperatures (350 °C, 450 °C, and 550 °C) on a hot plate for different periods of time. Such gold nanostructured coverslips were systematically tested via surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to identify their spectral performances in the presence of different concentrations of a model molecule, namely 1,2-bis-(4-pyridyl)-ethene (BPE). By using these SERS platforms, it is possible to detect BPE traces (10-12 M) in aqueous solutions in 120 s. The stability of SERS spectra over five weeks of thiol-DNA probe (2 µL) deposited on gold nano-structured coverslip is also reported.
- ItemSouth-Tyrolean pinot blanc identity: Exploration of chemical and sensory profile changes ascribed to vineyard locations and winemaking variables.(Elsevier B.V., 2024-09-16) Darnal A; Poggesi S; Merkytė V; Longo E; Boselli EThe sensory and chemical properties of 'Pinot Blanc' wine from South Tyrol were studied in relation to vineyard location and winemaking technique. Musts and wines were collected from a local producer. Wines made with the same control vinification but from different vineyards (Aldino 800, Montagna 450, and Klaus 550 m.a.s.l) were analyzed. Then wines from grapes of the same vineyard but made with different vinifications (grape freezing and co-inoculation of yeast with malolactic bacteria, both compared against controls) were compared. The highest-altitude vineyard (cooler temperatures, increased UV radiation, and increased airflow) impacted positively the wine quality. The different vinifications produced differences at various storage times. Finally, sensory attributes predictors for the overall quality and related chemical variables were identified. As climate change pushes growers to increasingly high-altitude viticulture, if/when allowed by the environmental conditions, these results can contribute to understand which winemaking techniques are best in these more challenging conditions.
