Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

An increasing number of consumers are choosing fermented fruit wine with a lower alcohol content and richer flavor over more common alternatives. Fruit wine, especially red wine and white wine, has become a staple in the food industry. This Special Issue will review the history of fruit wine, analyze current hot spots in this field, and explore future development directions of the fruit wine industry. Topics to be addressed include, but are not limited to, the following:

(1) The fermentation adaptability of different fruit varieties;
(2) The change mechanism of bioactive compounds in fruit wine processing;
(3) The influencing mechanism of key processing unit operation in core nutrient components and efficient retention of nutrients;
(4) The development of traditional and new yeasts and their application in high-quality fruit wine;
(5) Flavor/taste/aroma profiles in fruit wine;
(6) Authenticity and traceability and microbial biotechnological approaches aiming to improve food safety and potential health benefits;
(7) Analysis of components in fruit wine and/ or rapid methods and innovative applications;
(8) Methods for determining roles of fruit wine components in human health using omics technologies and/or system biology.

This study investigated the effects of high-hydrostatic-pressure (HHP) treatment of varying intensity (100–600 MPa) and duration (10–30 min) on polyphenols and volatile aromatic compounds in Marselan red wine.

This study investigated the effects of high-hydrostatic-pressure (HHP) treatment of varying intensity (100–600 MPa) and duration (10–30 min) on polyphenols and volatile aromatic compounds in Marselan red wine. The types and concentrations of polyphenols and volatile aromatic compounds were compared before and after HHP treatment; the results indicated that HHP treatment at 300 MPa for 20 min significantly increased the total polyphenol content to 369.70 mg/L, a rise of 35.82%. The contents of key polyphenols, such as resveratrol and protocatechuic acid, were significantly enhanced. Furthermore, while the total content of volatile aromatic compounds did not change significantly under this condition compared to the untreated samples, the concentration of ester compounds significantly increased to 1.81 times that of the untreated group, thereby enriching the floral and fruity aromas of the wine and effectively improving its aromatic profile and sensory quality. Principal component analysis (PCA) further validated the positive impact of HHP treatment on the flavor characteristics of Marselan red wine. These findings provide technical support for the use of HHP in improving wine quality. Full article
