<p style="text-align: justify;">Agrape pomace distillate was produced from 4 Greek white grape varieties (<em>Vitis vinifera</em> L.). Pomace was fermented with and without addition of citric acid, acting as an antibacterial agent, during fermentation. Fermented grape pomace was distilled in a traditional copper distillation apparatus.. Five major volatile compounds, including methanol, were measured. Pentanol-3 was used as an internal standard. Flame ionization detector (FID) coupled to capillary gas chromatography was used for determination of five volatile distillate components. The addition of citric acid resulted in the reduction of methanol content by about 15%. All the other components studied did not affect in any appreciable degree.</p>

(1) Background: Both sensory quality and healthy attributes of Vitis vinifera grapes used for winemaking are closely related with the polyphenolic composition of their skins. (2) Methods: In this study, the polyphenolic characterization (flavan-3-ols, procyanidins, flavonols, stilbenes, anthocyanins) was investigated by ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (UPLC-QqQ-MS). Skins from Vitis vinifera Merlot, Tannat, and Syrah red grape varieties cultivated in the south of France at different stages of ripening in 2018 were used. The anti-inflammatory and the antioxidant potential of the extracts were evaluated by the measure of nitric oxide (NO) and the intracellular reactive oxygen species production (ROS) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages. (3) Results: 41 polyphenols were quantified in all samples. Generally, the flavan-3-ol and procyanidin content decreased during ripening whereas the anthocyanins and stilbenes increased. In addition, as a novelty of this work, a wide identification and characterization of monomeric and oligomeric stilbenes was assessed by using authentic standards isolated in our laboratory, some of them (parthenocissin A and miyabenol C) reported for the first time in Merlot, Tannat and Syrah cultivars. The before-veraison skin extracts of all studied varieties, exhibited higher NO and ROS productions inhibition (>50%) proving both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Comprehensive Study

The evaluation of the variety suitability regarding each appellation’s specificities should be a strategy for maximizing the varieties’ oenological potential while contributing to the sustainable production of quality wines, keeping their typicity and rationalizing winemaking costs. Thus, the combination of several grape physicochemical attributes, modulated by climate and vineyard characteristics, providing knowledge for each grape variety’s oenological potential, is a relevant and reliable support for winemakers’ decisions. To prove this hypothesis, six mature grape varieties from three harvests, each one from three vineyard parcels with different topographical conditions from Bairrada Appellation (Portugal), were studied using analysis of variance–simultaneous components analysis (ASCA). The effects of harvest year and parcel on grape berry weight, pH, titratable acidity, total sugars, total phenolics, antiradical activity, and volatile composition in free and glycosidically-linked forms were analyzed. The compositional plasticity of autochthonous varieties (white Arinto and Bical and red Baga, Castelão, and Touriga Nacional) was observed. Sauvignon Blanc grape composition was significantly modulated by harvest. This study represents an important contribution for the maintenance of varieties’ biodiversity while contributing to establishing their peculiarities. Autochthonous varieties, if accurately exploited, can provide higher characteristic diversity than worldwide used varieties, an aspect to be more objectively taken into consideration by winemakers.

In this work, chemical parameters such as sugar (glucose and fructose) content, organic acid (total acids, malic and tartaric acids), total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of 12 white wines (chardonnay, pinot blanc and pinot gris) from various wine regions in Slovakia were studied in order to identify differences among the varieties and wine-growing regions. The wine samples were examined by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-VIS spectrophotometry (for determination of total polyphenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant activity (TAA)) methods. Content of alcohol ranged between 11.50% and 13.80% with the mean value 12.52%. Mean content of total acids varied between 4.63 ± 0.09 and 6.63 ± 0.05 g.L−1, tartaric acid varied between 1.62 ± 0.09 and 2.93 ± 0.03 g L−1, malic acid was found in the concentrations ranged from 0.07 ± 0.05 and 2.50 ± 0.08 g L−1 and lactic acid was present between 1.53 and 0.01 g L−1. The content of fructose was, in general, higher in the samples from the Južnoslovenská and Nitrianska wine regions and glucose was higher in the Malokarpatská wine region. Chardonnay wines showed the highest content of total polyphenols and the antioxidant activity in the samples ranged from 51.06 ± 027 to 72.53 ± 0.35% inhibition of DPPH. The PCA analysis based on chemical descriptors distinguished the Nitrianska and Stredoslovenská wine regions. According to similarities among the wine samples, four main classes were formed by cluster analysis.

Goal. To determine the species composition, dominant species, and territorial distribution of predatory and herbivorous ticks (phytophages) in the vineyards of southern Ukraine. Methods. Field — route surveys of vineyards to study the fauna, trophic links and colonization of vineyards with ticks. Laboratory — determination of the species composition of representatives of the acarofauna of vineyards. Results. During the study period, 17 species of ticks belonging to different trophic groups were identified, among which ticks dominate — phytophages of the Tetranychidae and Eriophyidae families. The most common among them were mites — phytophages, namely spider mites (Shhizotetranychus Oud., Tetranychus turkestanicus Ug.et Nich). Pests during the growing season go through four phases: prodromal, eruptive, gradation maximum and crisis. The graduation maximum phase, which is characterized by their greatest number, was noted during the period of intensive growth of berries and falls at the end of June — beginning of August (BBCH 71—79). The dynamics of the number of ticks by varieties is shown. The varieties most susceptible to spider mites were identified, the period of technical ripeness of which is medium, late or very late. Conclusions. Identified 17 species of ticks belonging to different trophic groups: phytophages, acariphages and mycophages. Based on observations of changes in the number of pests on vineyards during the growing season, four phases are distinguished. The graduation maximum phase occurs at the end of June — beginning of August (VVSN 71—79). It was established that all the studied grape varieties were populated by mites to varying degrees, the most susceptible were varieties of medium and late ripening.

В статье дан обзор современного состояния и тенденциозного развития виноградарской отрасли Афганистана. Виноград выращивается практически в каждой части страны, от Кандагара до Такара и Фарьяба. Наиболее интенсивно виноград возделывают в провинциях Кабул, Парван, Каписа, Кандагар, Гильменд, Джавзян, Герат и Газни. Но в большинстве районов страны культура выращивается не для коммерческого использования, а для семейного потребления. В основном весь виноград Афганистана принадлежит к подвиду Vitis vinifera sativa D.C.. В стране в наличии большое разнообразие доступных сортов (более 100), но самыми распространёнными являются три местных сорта столового направления использования: Шиндохани, Кишмиш белый и Тайфи розовый. При этом сорта Шиндохани и Кишмиш белый еще используются для приготовления изюма. К другим распространенным сортам винограда относятся Хусайне, Аскери, Голадан, Спен Манга, Надери и Бедана Кишмиш сиах (черный без косточек). Также вводятся в производство такие новые коммерческие сорта как Thompson Seedless, Red Globe, Cardinal, Emperor, Fantasy, Crimson Seedless, Flame Seedless, Ruby, Ribier и Black Emerald. В экспорте Афганистана виноград занимает 4%. В Афганистане виноградная лоза в основном возделывается по местной традиционной системе - на земляных курганах с головчатой формировкой. Используется также система «земля-решетчатая». Производственная система виноградарства Афганистана, его культурные практики, сортимент и послеуборочный процесс все еще традиционны. Поэтому для достижения более высоких результатов необходимо ориентироваться на международные стандарты качества, импортировать и распространять новые технологии, координировать процесс между всеми производителями виноградной продукции, повышать их грамотность.The article provides an overview of modern condition and development trends of the viticulture industry in Afghanistan. Grapes are cultivated in almost every part of the country, from the south to Kandahar and to the north to Takar and Faryaba. The most intensive cultivation areas are the provinces Kabul, Parvan, Kapisa, Kandahar, Helmand, Javzyan, Herat and Ghazni. In most parts of the country, grapes are grown not for commercial use but for family consumption. Most of grape varieties in Afghanistan belong to Vitis vinifera sativa D.C. The country has a wide range of available varieties (more than 100), but the most common are three local varieties: ‘Shindokhani’, ‘Kishmishi bely’ and ‘Typhi rozovy’. These are table varieties. At the same time, ‘Shindokhani’ and ‘Kishmishi bely’ are also used for raisin production. Other common grape varieties are ‘Hussaini’, ‘Askari’, ‘Goladan’, ‘Spen Manga’, ‘Naderi’ and ‘Bedana Kishmishi siah’ (black seedless). New commercial varieties ‘Thompson Seedless’, ‘Red Globe’, ‘Cardinal’, ‘Emperor’, ‘Fantasy’, ‘Crimson Seedless’, ‘Flame Seedless’, ‘Ruby’, ‘Ribier’ and ‘Black Emerald’ are being introduced into cultivation, too. Grapes account for 4% of the country’s total exports. In Afghanistan, grapes are mainly cultivated according to the local traditional system on mounds of earth with head training. ‘Earth-lattice’ trellis is also used. In Afghanistan, grape production, cultural practices, assortment and post-harvest process are still traditional. Therefore, to achieve better results, it is necessary to focus on international quality standards, to import and disseminate new technologies, to coordinate the process with all producers of grape products, and to increase their professional skills.
