Abstract
In this work, three MP extracts obtained from Torulaspora delbrueckii were added to red wine, and the changes in phenolic composition, color, and astringency were evaluated by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS, tristimulus colorimetry, and sensory analysis, respectively. The MP extracts modified wine phenolic composition differently depending on the type of MP. Moreover, two MP extracts were able to reduce wine astringency. The fact that the MP-treated wines showed an increased flavanol content suggests the formation of MP-flavanol aggregates that remain in solution. Furthermore, the formation of these aggregates may hinder the interaction of flavanols with salivary proteins in the mouth. The effect of these MPs might be associated with their larger size, which could influence their ability to bind flavanols and salivary proteins. However, one of the astringent-modulating MPs also produced a loss of color, highlighting the importance of assessing the overall impact of MPs on the organoleptic properties of wine.
