Learning outcomes
------------------------
MM: Teoria
------------------------
The aim of this course is to provide detailed knowledge concerning chemical structure, reactivity, enological, and sensory role of the main grape and wine constituents. The practice classes deal with the most important analytical methods for winery application and their application to relevant wine chemical and biochemical transformations such as grape maturity and wine oxidation.
------------------------
MM: Laboratorio
------------------------
The purpose of this course is to illustrate, by means of practical laboratory experiences the most important analytical procedures for winery applications. Practical experiences related to the study of anthocyanin reactions as well as on the transformation induced by oxidation on wine chemical composition are also carried out.
Program
------------------------
MM: Teoria
------------------------
Grape and wine constituents: chemical, sensory and technological characteristics. Sugars, acids, nitrogen compounds, polyphenols, aroma compounds and precursors, metals, proteins and polysaccharides, endogenous and exogenous antioxidants. Chemical and biochemical reactions of enological interest Enzimatic reactions (intra- and extra-cellular): yeast- and bacteria-derived enzymes, polyphenol oxidase, laccase, pectinase, glycosidase, esterase, C-S lyase Acid hydrolysis reactions Oxidative reactions Redox equilibria Colloidal phenomena and precipitations
------------------------
MM: Laboratorio
------------------------
- Analysis of total phenolics by means of spectrophotometric methods - Analysis of color - Analysis of tannins - Reactions of anthocyanins - Analysis of free and total sulfur dioxide - Study of oxygen reaction during wine conservation - Study of oxidation-related modification of sulfur dioxide, phenolics, and color - Stoichiometric calculations for winery applications
