Evolution in the Bottling of Cabernet Sauvignon Wines Macerated with Their Own Toasted Vine-Shoots

This work studies, for the first time, the effect of the use of Cabernet Sauvignon vine-shoots as an enological additive (called “Shoot Enological Granule”, SEG) in wines of the same variety. SEGs were added in two doses (12 and 24 g/L) at the end of malolactic fermentation, and after that, wines we...

Sumario:This work studies, for the first time, the effect of the use of Cabernet Sauvignon vine-shoots as an enological additive (called “Shoot Enological Granule”, SEG) in wines of the same variety. SEGs were added in two doses (12 and 24 g/L) at the end of malolactic fermentation, and after that, wines were bottled for six months. The phenolic and volatile composition and sensory profiles of wines were analyzed at bottling and after six months. The results showed a decrease in the total content of phenolic compounds with bottle time; however, stilbenes - specifically trans-resveratrol - were maintained at significant levels in SEG wines.In contrast, the total content of volatile compounds, mainly esters, increased with bottle aging. Finally, in terms of sensory profile, SEG wines showed a clear differentiation between the descriptors and the control, with more-integrated aromas after bottle time with more toasted, nutty vanilla notes, as well as silkier and less bitter tannins, compared to the control.
