Role of climate on grape characteristics of “Moscato bianco” in Piemonte (Italy)

Abstract

[English version below]

L’objectif de l’étude était de connaître le rôle du climat sur les aspects phénologiques du cépage « Moscato bianco » dans les différentes zones de production du vin Moscato d’Asti aocg en Piemonte (Italie) et ses effets sur l’époque de vendange. La représentation cartographique ( échelle 1 :25000) de exposition, altitude, climat, index bioclimatiques, phases phénologiques, caractéristiques physique- chimiques des raisins ( alcool, acidité, pH) a permit de partager la zone de production de Moscato d’Asti en trois sub-zones avec différentes époques de vendange où, entre une précoce et une tardive il y a une sub-zone intermédiaire caractérisée par situations de majeur et mineur précocité .

The study’s purpose was to realize the role of climate on phenological aspects of ‘Moscato bianco’ grapevine cultivar in different production zones of wine Moscato d’Asti docg in Piemonte (Italy) and his effects on vintage time. The cartography display (scale 1:25.000) of different parameters of exposure, altitude, climate, bioclimatic indexes, phenological phases, grape’s quality (alcohol, acidity, pH) allows to zone the Moscato d’Asti production area in three sub-zones: between an early zone and late zone there is a intermediate zone with more or less earliness.

Aspect juridiques des terroirs

Le “terroir” est dans tous les discours, les articles, les étiquettes et les publicités. Le voca­ble est en situation d’utilisation euphorique. Indiscutablement l’emploi historique est agri­cole, puis viticole, mais il n’est jamais juridique.

Characteristics of ecological production of grape and wine in Prizren’s vineyard territory in Yugoslavia

Prizren’s vineyard territory-y assigned for ecological production of grapes and wine includes 1. 200 hectares of vineyard located in five separate localities which belongs to the P KB “Kosovo vina”, Mala Krusa in Prizren. Division of vineyard territory in zones was carried out in 1974. Pertaining to the vineyards, the climate and soil conditions have been studied and determined as well as topographie establishing of vineyard boundaries.

Recent observations in wine oxidation

The chemistry of wine oxidation is captured in the reactions between the oxidation products, mostly reactive electrophiles, with other wine constituents. An understanding of both components and their reactions can lead to ideas and techniques to control and mitigate or enhance these reactions to allow for the desired development of the wine. Current investigations are yielding much useful information about oxidation reactions in wine.
