This study investigates the evolution of the oxygen barrier properties of the bottleneck-stopper system under conditions simulating the conservation of wine in the bottle (presence of model wine, storage position, and temperature) over a long aging period of 24 months. The results highlighted that the oxygen diffusion coefficient of the stopper alone is not modified regardless of the storage conditions. At 20°C, the presence of model wine favors oxygen transfer at the glass-cork interface, accounting for nearly 75% of total oxygen transfer in comparison to cork studied without model wine. Yet, the position of the bottle during storage, vertical (i.e. cork in contact with the vapor phase of the model wine) or horizontal (i.e. cork in contact with the liquid phase), does not influence the oxygen transfer. At higher storage temperatures (35 and 50°C), the barrier properties of the bottleneck-cork system remain stable up to 9 and 3 months, respectively. After this period, an alteration of the barrier properties is observed with an increase of the transfer at the glass-cork interface.

Article Synopsis
- Cork is primarily used for wine bottle stoppers, but it can contain 2,4,6-trichloroanisole, which causes a musty odor that negatively affects wine quality and leads to financial losses.
- The presence of yellow stain in cork indicates a degradation linked to higher microbial populations, particularly filamentous fungi that break down lignin, and this microbiota contributes to the formation of chlorophenols and chloroanisoles.
- Research identified specific fungal and bacterial species associated with yellow stain and demonstrated that certain strains can convert p-hydroxybenzoate into phenol, which can then be chlorinated, potentially leading to the development of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol.

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) plays an important role to respond in the defence against damage when tomato leaves are under different types of adversity stresses. This work employed microhyperspectral imaging (MHSI) and visible near-infrared (Vis-NIR) hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technologies to predict tomato leaf SOD activity. The macroscopic model of SOD activity in tomato leaves was constructed using the convolutional neural network in conjunction with the long and short-term temporal memory (CNN-LSTM) technique.

Winegrapes exposed to environmental wildfire smoke during ripening can be identified through analysis of volatile phenols and phenolic glycosides. While elevated concentrations of these smoke marker compounds in grapes have been shown to be predictive of composition and smoke flavor in young wines, recent research has demonstrated that not every wine produced from smoke-exposed grapes will inevitably have discernible smoke flavor when assessed as young wine 6 weeks after bottling. This is supported by anecdotal reports from wine producers that wines that do not appear noticeably smoky when young become noticeably smoky during aging.

Resveratrol and its glucoside, piceid, are the primary stilbenes present in wine. These compounds are well known for their pharmaceutical properties. However, these compounds can undergo chemical transformations in wines, such as polymerization in the presence of metallic reagents.

Herein, the miniaturized thermal purge-and-trap (MTPT) device combined with self-calibration colorimetric/surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) dual-model optical sensors were designed for effective analysis of sulfur dioxide (SO) in wine. The SO can be rapidly separated from wine and enriched by MTPT device, ensuring colorimetric/SERS dual-model optical sensing based on Karl Fischer reaction. The high separation efficiency of miniaturized MTPT device combined with self-calibration of dual-model optical sensors significantly alleviate matrix interference and improve the detection accuracy.
