Grape variety, vinification, and ageing are factors conditioning the aroma of a wine, with volatile secondary metabolites responsible for the so-called grape varietal character. Particularly, grape glycosylated norisoprenoids are mostly responsible for the sensory profile of Tannat wines, making relevant the use of fast instrumental tools to evaluate their concentration, allow classifying grapes and defining the optimum maturity for harvest. NIR spectroscopy is a fast, non-destructive technique, which requires minimal sample preparation. However, its quantitative applications need chemometric models for interpretation. In this work, a NIR-ANN calibration was developed to quantify norisoprenoids in Vitis vinifera cv. Tannat grapes during maturation and harvesting. Glycosidated norisoprenoids were determined by GC-MS. The ANN adjustments showed better performance than linear models such as PLS, while the best calibration was obtained by homogenising grape samples when comparing to grape juice; making possible to fit a model with an error of 146 μg/kg.

Glycosides represent a large source of potential flavor in grape must. Commercial preparations enzymes with glycosidase activity are commonly employed to enhance wine aroma. In this study, we conducted an evaluation of twelve commercial enzymes to assess their effectiveness in releasing volatile compounds from their conjugated forms in a white grape must under laboratory conditions by solid-liquid extraction (SPE) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Background: 'Xynisteri' is considered as the reference white grape cultivar in Cyprus with remarkable adaptation to adverse edaphoclimatic conditions and appreciable oenological properties that renders it as an appropriate cultivar for studies within a global context due to climate change. To this aim, two distinct non-irrigated plots with different climatic conditions, soil properties and levels of rainfall were selected; Koilani [KO, altitude 800 m, 76% calcium carbonate (CaCO) content, pH 7.97, average temperature: 16.

Background: The ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation can alter grape metabolism during berry development, but little is known on the effect of postharvest UV-B exposure. In this study, we evaluated the effect of postharvest UV-B exposure on berry primary and secondary metabolites in four grapevine varieties (Aleatico, Moscato bianco, Sangiovese, and Vermentino) in order to evaluate the possibility to increase the grape quality and its nutraceutical properties.
Results: The treatment did not significantly affect the berry primary metabolism in terms of organic acids, carbohydrates, and amino acids profile, regardless of the variety.
Water deficit before veraison is crucial in regulating berry VOCs concentration in Sangiovese grapevines.

The impact of water deficit on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) responsible for grape aroma remains quite unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different timing and intensity of water deficit on berry VOCs and on their biosynthetic pathways. Fully irrigated control vines were compared with the following treatments: i) two different levels of water deficit from berry pea-size through veraison, ii) one level of water deficit during the lag-phase, and iii) two different levels of water deficit from veraison through harvest.

Background: 'Xynisteri' is the reference Cypriot white cultivar that, despite its significant societal and economic impact, is poorly characterized regarding its qualitative properties, while scarce information exists regarding its aroma profile. In the current study, the effect of leaf removal during fruit set (BBCH 71) on 6-year cordon-trained, spur-pruned grapevines was assessed and an array of physiological, biochemical, and qualitative indices were monitored during successive developmental stages (BBCH 75, BBCH 85, BBCH 87, and BBCH 89). Grapes were additionally monitored for the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) profile during the advanced on-vine developmental stages (BBCH 85-BBCH 89) with the employment of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), Fourier-transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectra and electronic nose (E-nose) techniques.
