“Zonation”: interpretation and estimation of “Great zonation” (GZ) following the base methodology of “GRANDE FILIERA” (GF) (Great chain)

Abstract

[English version below]

Dans des travaux précédents sur le zonage, on a traité de la « Grande Filière », du « terroir », du « territoire », de la «″Terra »″ (« Terre »”), des « Petits zonages ou sub-zonages », du « Grand Zonage », de la qualité (nous en avons classifié plus de quatre-vingt-dix), des « Grands Objectifs » (GO) de l’activité vitivinicole et des moyens utilisés pour les atteindre. Dans le « GRAND ZONAGE » (GZ) nous avons précisé que pour zoner, nous partons des aspects économiques, sociaux et existentiels que représentent du bas vers le haut en filière les « GRANDS OBJECTIFS » (GO) de l’activité vitinicole et donc du zonage et non pas des aspects « techniques » tels que par exemple le sol, le climat, le modèle de vignoble et sa gestion, etc., qui représentent les « MOYENS » pour atteindre les grands objectifs cités ci-dessus (Cargnello G. 1995, 1997, 1999a-b-c-d, 200a-b et 2003a-c-d). Il faut donc souligner que les « grands objectifs » ne doivent pas être confondus, comme c’est souvent le cas dans notre secteur, avec les moyens utilisés pour atteindre ces objectifs. « Zoner » (« Grand Zonage ») en incluant aussi la lecture et l’évaluation de ce zonage, objet de ce travail, en suivant la méthodologie de base de la « GRANDE FILIERE » (GF) signifie donc, entre autre, opérer aussi bien dans la « globalité », de façon équo soutenable solidaire au niveau temps, économique et social et réalistiquement « qualitatif », aussi bien en syntonie (au mieux) avec les 54 descripteurs d’ordre technique économique social existentiel prévus dans la « Grande Filière ».
On exposera dans ce travail la lecture et l’évaluation du zonage d’après ce qui a été exposé ci-dessus. Lecture et évaluation qui à la suite des recherches conduites à l’étranger aussi a suscité un vif intérêt et nous a encouragé à intensifier ces recherches.

In previous papers on zonation we investigated: so called “GRANDE FILIERA” (GF) (“Great chain”), “terroir”, “Terra”, “Small zonations or sub-zonations”, “Great zonation”, qualities (we have classified more than ninety), economy of qualities, as well as “GREAT OBJECTIVES” (GO) of vitivinicultural activity and means utilised for its achievement.
In “GREAT ZONATION” (GZ) we have specified that in order to zonate, it is necessary to start from economic, social and existential aspects which in filiera from below to above represent “GREAT OBJECTIVES” (GO) also of vitivinicultural activity and thus of zonation, and not from “technical” aspects such as soil, climate, vineyard model and its management, etc. which represent “MEANS” for achievements of “great objectives” above mentioned (Cargnello G., 1995, 1997, 1999a-b-c-d-, 2000a-b and 2003a-c-d).
Must be therefore said again that “great objectives” shouldn’t be messed-up, as frequently happens in our branch, with means utilised for achievement of such objectives.
Consequently “Zonating” (“Great Zonation”) comprised between interpretation and estimation of zonation, following the base methodology of “Great Chain” means, among other things, to operate in “globality” and in sustainable equal mode on tempistic, economic-social and realistically “qualitative” level, also in harmony (the best) with listed descriptors.
In the present paper, zonation interpretation and estimation will be treated as explained above. Type of interpretation and estimation that after researches conducted by foreign researches have risen in importance and have stimulated us to intensify our investigations in that sense.

Brown Marmorated Stink Bug taint in grape must and wine: time evolution of trans-2-decenal

The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB, Halyomorpha halys Stal) is an invasive pentatomid native to eastern Asia that is spreading rapidly worldwide, notably through human-mediated activities. Globally, it was reported in the USA, Canada, Italy, Hungary, and other European countries. BMSB has a broad host range that includes over 170 plants, many of agricultural importance, including various fruit, vegetables, row crops, and ornamentals. When present in the vineyard, the pest can affect yield and quality by directly feeding on berries resulting in fruit collapse and necrosis. Additional damage occurs when BMSB are carried into the winery within the grape clusters. The presence of BMSB during wine processing can affect juice and wine quality through the release of volatile compounds produced as a stress response. The major secretes compounds are tridecane and trans-2-decenal. Tridecane is an odorless compound and its effect on wine quality is currently unknown. Trans-2-decenal is an unsaturated aldehyde considered to be the main component of BMSB taint with strong green, coriander, and musty-like aromas. Its threshold value in wine was estimated at about 5 µg/L.

Changes in wine secondary metabolites composition by the timing of inoculation with lactic acid bacteria: impact on wine aroma

For the first time, it was established that the timing of inoculation with LAB could significantly impact the concentration of many secondary metabolites leading to significant aromatic changes. From studied compounds, the most influenced were esters and diacetyl.

Anthocyanins Chemistry During Red Wine Ageing

Anthocyanins are the main pigments present in young red wines, being responsible for their intense red color. These pigment in aqueous solutions occur in different forms in equilibrium that are dependent on the pH

Effects of regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) on grape composition in Monastrell grapevines under semiarid conditions

The influence of two pre-veraison and post-veraison regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) strategies on yield and grape quality was analyzed during a two year period for mature grapevines (cv. Monastrell) in Southeastern of Spain

Monitoring of Pesticide Residues from Vine to Wine

Those previous years, pesticides are often brought to the forefront by media. Questions arose about their toxicity for growers and consumers. Even if a downward trend is underway, the use of pesticides is required to ensure steady quality and quantity of harvests. A large number of active ingredients are authorized but regarding viticulture, mainly insecticides and fungicides are applied, to control pests and diseases and to increase crop yield. Some phytosanitary products, principally fungicides, applied close to the harvest date may frequently be detected in wines.
