Properties of Wine Polysaccharides

Abstract: Polysaccharides are the main macromolecules of colloidal nature in wines, and play a fundamental role in the technological properties and organoleptic characteristics of the wines. The role of the different wine polysaccharides will depend on their quantity but also on their chemical composition, molecular structure and origin. Wine polysaccharides originate from grapes and yeast acting during the winemaking. The main polysaccharides present in wines can be grouped into three major families: (i) polysaccharide… Show more

“…In fact, MP enrichment of wines have been proven to modify wine astringency and sucrosity [ 105 , 106 ]. MPs have also been mentioned to play an important role in tartrate salt crystallization, although the MP concentration needs to be adjusted depending on the wine considered [ 107 , 108 , 109 ]. Additionally, recent studies have shown that MPs can interact with all anthocyanin families and modulate the bioaccessibility of polyphenolic compounds during digestion in the gastrointestinal tract [ 110 ].…”

“…They constitute a group of glycoproteins which, along with β-linked glucans and chitin, form the major components of the yeast cell wall [ 1 ]. In the well-studied genus Saccharomyces , the glycan moiety of mannoproteins consists mostly of mannose (>90%) and glucose, as well as N-acetyl-glucosamine and mannosylphosphate (0.1–1%), with a protein content ranging between 1% and 10% [ 2 , 3 ]. Their molecular weight may vary between 5 and 800 kDa, although the typical reported range is 50–500 kDa [ 3 ].…”
