RESUMO

Sangiovese is the most cultivated red grape variety in Italy where it is certified for the production of several Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) wines, and it is one of the most cultivated Italian red grape varieties in California. Despite the global distribution of this variety, there is a lack of international studies on Sangiovese grapes and wines. For this reason, the present study aimed to compare 20 commercial Sangiovese wines from 2017 harvest, 9 produced in Italy (Tuscany) and 11 in California, in order to evaluate the intrinsic and perceived quality. The eligibility, identity, and style properties (the intrinsic quality) of the wines were evaluated. A group of 11 Italian experts evaluated the perceived quality by rating the typicality of the wines. The experimental data showed that the intrinsic quality of Sangiovese wine samples was affected by the growing area; in particular, the wine resulted very different for the color indices and polyphenol composition. The above differences in intrinsic quality levels did not lead to a different evaluation of the perceived quality (typicality) by the wine experts. The results evidenced that Sangiovese variety is recognizable also if grown outside its original terroir, and fresh and fruity wines were considered more typical. This study expands our current knowledge of Sangiovese wines and the contribution of regional characteristics to the composition of wine.

RESUMO

The compositional authentication of wine is of great interest, as the geographic origin of the grapes is often associated with quality, uniqueness, and authenticity. Previous elemental fingerprinting studies mainly discriminated wines from different countries or regions within a country. Here, we report the use of element profiles to distinguish commercial Pinot noir wines from five sub-regional appellations or neighborhoods within one American viticultural area (AVA). Fifty-three single cultivar wines were collected over two harvests and analyzed using microwave plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (MP-AES) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Of 62 monitored elements that were quantified with fully validated methods, 24 and 32 elements differed significantly across the neighborhoods and vintages, respectively (p < 0.05). Targeted canonical variate analysis (CVA) explained 85%-90% of the variance ratio across the two vintages, indicating persistent and stable elemental fingerprints of wines at a sub-regional level. A sixth, newly founded neighborhood was correctly grouped separately from the others using a Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogy (SIMCA), indicating the potential of elemental fingerprints for wine authenticity.

RESUMO

Arsenic, a naturally occurring metalloid found in certain foods, exists in various redox states and as inorganic and organic species, each with varying levels of toxicity. International regulatory bodies have imposed allowable maximums for total arsenic in wine ranging between 100 and 200 µg/L. Typical commercial wine levels are within these limits. However, a better understanding of viticultural and enological practices impacting total arsenic and arsenic species in grapes and wines is needed to ensure levels remain low. This perspective discusses current information on factors impacting the arsenic content of grapes and wines and the analytical approaches for monitoring inorganic and organic species.

RESUMO

Sangiovese is the most widespread Italian red cultivar and constitutes the basis of internationally known wines such as Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Outside of Europe, Argentina is the largest producer, followed by the United States. This study sought to define and compare 2016 vintage Sangiovese wine composition from various production regions in California and Italy. Forty-six commercial Sangiovese wines from California and Italy were analyzed for volatile profile, color, phenolic, and elemental content. This study demonstrates that it is possible to determine regional differences among wines based on these chemical profiles. However, some Californian and Italian wine had similar chemical compositions. In order to compare Californian and Italian wines, Californian wine reference models were developed using the chemical parameters from Sangiovese wines, performing a Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogy (SIMCA). To our knowledge, this is the first time that an extensive regionality study has been attempted for Sangiovese wines.

RESUMO

This work aimed to investigate the evolution of phenolic compounds and elements during the aging of Malbec red wines from different regions of Mendoza (Argentina) and California (United States). The profiles of low molecular weight polyphenols and anthocyanins were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode-array detector (HPLC-DAD), and the elemental composition using microwave plasma-Atomic emission spectrometry (MP-AES). Through uni- and multivariate statistical analyses, the effects of aging time and region on wine were investigated. It was observed that aging time was a significant factor that affected the phenolic compound profile in the studied Malbec wines studied and that after five years of aging, the wines could be differentiated according to region. The results of this study may impact decisions made regarding the storage of Malbec wines in the future.

RESUMO

A multilaboratory validation (MLV) was performed to extend the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) analytical method Elemental Analysis Manual (EAM) §4.10, High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometric Determination of Four Arsenic Species in Fruit Juice, to include wine. Several method modifications were examined to optimize the method for the analysis of dimethylarsinic acid, monomethylarsonic acid, arsenate (AsV), and arsenite (AsIII) in various wine matrices with a range of ethanol concentrations by liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. The optimized method was used for the analysis of five wines of different classifications (red, white, sparkling, rosé, and fortified) by three laboratories. Additionally, the samples were fortified in duplicate at levels of approximately 5, 10, and 30 µg kg-1 and analyzed by each participating laboratory. The combined average fortification recoveries of dimethylarsinic acid, monomethylarsonic acid, and inorganic arsenic (iAs the sum of AsV and AsIII) in these samples were 101, 100, and 100%, respectively. To further demonstrate the method, 46 additional wine samples were analyzed. The total As levels of all the wines analyzed in this study were between 1.0 and 38.2 µg kg-1. The overall average mass balance based on the sum of the species recovered from the chromatographic separation compared to the total As measured was 89% with a range of 51-135%. In the 51 analyzed samples, iAs accounted for an average of 91% of the sum of the species with a range of 37-100%.
