Sourness–sweetness interactions in different media: white wine, ethanol and water
Abstract: The aim of this work was to study the sourness–sweetness interactions in water, white wine and alcoholic environment to interpret sweet/sour perception in low concentrations within the range normally encountered in white wine. Nine trained assessors rated sweetness and sourness intensity i...

| Sumario: | Abstract: The aim of this work was to study the sourness–sweetness interactions in water, white wine and alcoholic environment to interpret sweet/sour perception in low concentrations within the range normally encountered in white wine. Nine trained assessors rated sweetness and sourness intensity in mixtures of fructose (11.1, 25.0 and 38.9 mM) and tartaric acid (pH 3.0, 3.4 and 3.8) in water and wine (experiment 1) or ethanol solutions at 2.0, 4.0 and 12.0% v/v (experiment 2). The range of quantitative responses was larger for sourness than for sweetness in the three media. The global sourness intensity perception in wine mixtures was significantly lower than in water and ethanol mixtures, indicating the effect of other wine components. The suppressive effect of tartaric acid on fructose sweetness was stronger than the suppressive effect of fructose on tartaric acid sourness. |
