Fumonisins are a group of mycotoxins produced by some isolates of black aspergilli. This study examines the dynamics of fumonisins during winemaking and storage and the role of fining agents in the removal of FB2, the most prevalent fumonisin produced by black aspergilli. <i>Methods and Results</i>. Chardonnay grapes were inoculated with a fumonisin-producing strain of <i>Aspergillus welwitschiae</i> and fumonisins were quantified at different stages of vinification. The stability of fumonisins was studied at 13 and 25°C using Chardonnay wine spiked with FB2. Activated charcoal, calcium bentonite, yeast hulls, and a nonallergenic polysaccharide of nonanimal origin (NO (OX)) were evaluated as fining agents for FB2 removal from wine. Fumonisins were quantified by LC-MS/MS. During vinification most of the fumonisins were removed with the solids, with only 3% of the fumonisins found in the grapes being transferred to the wine. Fumonisin FB2 was stable in white wine for at least 4 months, but was reduced by 42% after 8 months at 25°C. Activated charcoal and bentonite were able to remove more than 80% of FB2 in white wine. <i>Conclusions</i>. Vinification can lead to the partial removal of fumonisins. The use of fining agents and wine storage leads to further reduction. <i>Significance of the Study.</i> This study demonstrates the fate of fumonisins during vinification and wine storage and the potential use of fining agents for amelioration of fumonisin contamination.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8582,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research","volume":"2022 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2022/9765810","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43281424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rosé wines are becoming more popular, as is the demand for organic wines. However, there are few studies on the effects of operative choices on the quality and style of these wines. The paper aims to investigate the effects of the early stages of processing (destemming/crushing and pressing) on rosé wine characteristics. <i>Methods and Results</i>. A full factorial experiment was carried out on <i>Sangiovese</i>, considering two factors related to grape processing: the prepressing treatment (intact clusters or destemmed/crushed berries) and the pressing pressure. Sugars, ethanol, acidity, phenols, and color were measured in juices, while volatile compounds and sensory profiles were evaluated in wines. Destemming/crushing dramatically changed the composition of both juices and wines’; notably, acidity increased and floral and color intensities decreased in intact cluster samples. Furthermore, a clear interaction was found between prepressing treatment and pressure. Pressure, in turn, affected several acidity and color parameters. This could be related to the chemical composition and consistency of the different berry zone, which interact with the mechanical action of the destemmer/crusher and press. <i>Conclusions</i>. Processing choices affect all of the main qualitative features of rosé wine; they could be successfully used to decide the wine’s style and minimize the use of additives and adjuvants.

The genetically determined characteristics of grapevine rootstocks are important factors that affect scion performance. This 3 years’ field study aimed to characterize the influence of four well-established 30-year-old rootstocks (110 Richter, 1103 Paulsen, 41B, and 161-49Couderc) on the Tempranillo cultivar in the semiarid wine growing region of D.O.Ca. Rioja, North-Eastern Spain. <i>Methods and Results</i>. Nutrient concentrations of mineral elements at flowering and veraison were determined in the vines, jointly with grapevine-water status, gas exchange, vine vigour, and chlorophyll content. Moreover, grapevine yield and grape quality were determined at harvest. The least vigorous rootstocks (41B, 161-49C) conferred drought adaptability traits by increasing water use efficiency (WUE) and decreasing whole-plant water conductance per unit leaf area (<i>K</i><sub>plant</sub>) compared to the more vigorous rootstocks (1103-P, 110-R). In contrast, the more vigorous rootstocks increased water transport capacity, which led to higher plant performance and nutrient uptake efficiency. At flowering, 1103-P and to a lesser extent, 110-R were most efficient at taking up nutrients, while 161-49C had the lowest concentrations for most nutrients. At veraison, 41B exhibited closer behaviour to 110-R than 161-49C, while 1103-P and 161-49C remained the most differentiated rootstocks, with higher and lower nutrient uptake, respectively. In addition, compared to the more vigorous rootstocks, the yield was up to 1.6 kg lower for the less vigorous rootstocks but the grape composition was improved. Notably, 161-49C led to higher total soluble solids, total acidity, and polyphenol content. <i>Conclusions</i>. Overall, grafting onto specific rootstocks represents a strategy to confer differential regulation of grapevine water-saving strategies, yield, berry quality, and nutrient uptake potential. <i>Significance of the Study</i>. This information may be useful for growers seeking to develop a site-specific selection of rootstocks for the grafted Tempranillo cv.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8582,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research","volume":"2022 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2022/9871347","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47383384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To train an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system in cane pruning, the attributes of grapevine dormant shoots were characterised.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Methods and Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Eight attributes of dormant shoots, diameter, length, vertical and horizontal distance, node number, internode length, origin and position relative to bottom fruiting wire, were measured prior to and after pruning. Vine canopies were modified according to a 5 [total node numbers on canes: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50] × 3 [total node numbers on spurs: 1, 2, 3] factorial design. Compared to non-retained dormant shoots, retained dormant shoots were thicker (9.2 ± 0.07 mm), longer (104.7 ± 0.93 cm), close to the vine trunk (11.4 ± 0.65 cm) and below the bottom fruiting wire (83.2 ± 0.54 cm). Spurs had the shortest horizontal (9.8 ± 0.93 cm) and vertical (77.8 ± 0.7 cm) distance, originating from the vine head, base nodes and first nodes of old canes and old spurs. Modifying the vine canopy via increased node numbers had a significant effect on all retained dormant shoot attributes (<i>P</i> < 0.05) except on the position relative to the bottom fruiting wire.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Cane pruning in commercial vineyards is consistent and follows rules based on viticulture knowledge. Retained, non-retained dormant shoots, canes and spurs exhibit distinct attributes useful in quantifying, assessing and modelling cane pruning.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Significance of the Study</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Data and knowledge from the research are currently being used in modelling and training AI cane-pruning algorithms.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8582,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research","volume":"28 3","pages":"508-520"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ajgw.12555","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42827488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
