Applications of high-pressure technologies to improve the extraction of phenolic compounds during red winemaking.
| High pressure technology | Sample (volume) | Operation parameters | Main results respect to control treatment | Reference |
|
HHP Discontinuous process |
Red grape berries (Tempranillo) 300 g |
200 MPa, 10 min, < 30°C |
Treated grape berry: • Migration of anthocyanins to pulp and seeds • No external modifications of fruit appearance (integrity) Wine: •↑ extraction of p-coumarylated anthocyanins at (> 68%) •↑ TPI (> 43%) •↑ CI (> 26%) |
(101) |
|
HHP Discontinuous process |
Red grape by-products | 600 MPa, 60 min, 70°C | •↑ total phenolic content (> 1.5-fold higher) •↑ extraction of acylated anthocyanins (> 10.7-fold higher) •↑ antioxidant activity (> 2.75-fold higher) |
(102) |
|
HHP Discontinuous process |
Red wine (Agiorgitiko) 1 L |
350 MPa, 10 min, 8°C The wine was dosed with 30, 60 and 100 mg/L SO2 |
Wines with < 60 mg/L SO2 (6 months of storage): •↓ flavanols •↓ monomeric anthocyanins •↓ antioxidant activity |
(106) |
|
UHPH Continuous process |
Red grape must (Cabernet Sauvignon) 100 L at 60 L h–1 |
300 MPa, 77°C, < 0.2 s |
Red grape must: ↑ protection against oxidation (> 2.5-fold higher) after 6 days of exposure to air (without SO2)* Red wine: Maintains the total anthocyanins content |
(110) |
*Oxidative process: monitored by the evolution of the hue (evolution from red-blue to red-brown tonalities).
