Chemical and sensorial profile of Tempranillo wines elaborated with toasted vine-shoots of different varieties and micro-oxygenation

The positive impact of use SEGs ("Shoot from vines - Enological - Granule") in winemaking for wines of the same variety has been extensively demonstrated, but their combination with different SEGs varieties and microoxygenation (MOX) remains unstudied. In this study, Tempranillo wines were in contact along 35 days with two doses of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon SEGs (12 and 24 g/L) and two fixed doses of MOX (LOTR, 6.24 mg/L center dot month, and HOTR, 11.91 mg/L center dot month). Chemical composition and sensory profiles were analyzed after SEGs-MOX treatments. Results indicated a greater impact of MOX on volatile composition when Cabernet Sauvignon SEGs were used, with similar results for CS12-HOTR and CS24-LOTR wines. Phenolic compounds showed a total concentration decrease in all treated wines, though trans-resveratrol increased in all cases, particularly with the highest MOX dose. In sensory evaluation, MOX accelerated the integration of characteristic SEGs aromas into the wine, reducing the required bottle time for round them.
