摘要

Aroma loss during dealcoholization reduces the sensory quality and acceptance of non-alcoholic wines. Evidence on whether approved hydrolyzable tannins can preserve aroma compounds in alcohol-free matrices is limited. This study investigated the impact of a hydrolyzable tannin (1–4 g/L) on volatile composition, sensory properties, and binding thermodynamics in synthetic non-alcoholic wine by reverse osmosis. Volatiles were analyzed by HS-SPME–GC–MS, sensory responses by a trained panel, and binding parameters by temperature-dependent UV–Vis assays. Moderate tannin addition (1–2 g/L) increased overall volatile retention by 30%, especially esters and higher alcohols, compared with a control. Sensory analysis revealed higher fruity, floral, and sweet notes at 1 g/L, whereas high tannin (4 g/L) promoted herbaceous aromas. Thermodynamic assays showed spontaneous (ΔG° −297 to − 23 kJ/mol), entropy-driven interactions between tannin and volatile compounds. Moderate tannin addition thus offers a practical, regulatory-compliant approach to reducing aroma loss in dealcoholized wines.
