Marketing and zoning (“Great Zoning”): researches and various considerations

Abstract

[English version below]

Dans de précédents travaux sur le zonage “GRANDE ZONAZIONE” (GZ) (“Grand Zonage”), on a traité, entre autre, de la “GRANDE FILIERA” (GF) (Grande filière) où parmi les 54 descripteurs prévus pour lire et évaluer par exemple un zonage, sont compris aussi la Communication – Marketing et les aspects qui y sont liés, comme facteurs fondamentaux du “GRANDE ZONAZIONE” (GZ) “Grand Zonage” qui part des aspects économiques, sociaux et existentiels qui représentent en filière du bas vers le haut les “GRANDI OBIETTIVI” (GO) (“Grands Objectifs” de l’activité vitivinicole aussi et donc du zonage, et qui ne part pas des aspects “techniques” typiques du “Petit Zonage” (PZ) ou “Zonage Thématique” 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. 1997, 1999 a-b et 2003 a-c).
Il faut donc souligner à nouveau que les “grands objectifs” ne doivent pas être confondus, comme il arrive souvent dans notre secteur aussi, avec les moyens utilisés pour atteindre ces objectifs. L’objectif de ce travail est de démontrer ultérieurement l’importance fondamentale de l’aspect économique dans le zonage, et en particulier la composante communication et marketing qui doit cependant être gérée de manière équitable et harmonique en ce qui concerne les autres facteurs de l’activité productive, c’està-dire les aspects techniques, économiques-sociaux, et existentiels, prévus dans notre “Grand Filière” (GF).
Ce travail a été conduit a Ormelle dans le Nord-Est de l’Italie, en Vénétie en Province de Treviso dans la “TERRA DELLA VALLE DEL PIAVE” (“Terre de la Valléè du Piave”), en suivant la méthodologie de base suivante: Cargnello G., (1999); 2003a; Carbonneau A., Cargnello G., (2003). Les résultats philosophiques, méthodologiques et applicatifs obtenus dans cette recherche sont très encourageants et nous induisent à intensifier ces activités, dans le but d’appliquer dans la pratique du zonage les indications d’ordre technique, économique, social et existentiel fournies par ces recherches sur le “Grand Zonage”.

In preceding works on zoning “GRANDE ZONAZIONE” (GZ) (“Great Zoning”) the so-called “GRANDE FILIERA” (GF) (“Great Chain”) has been discussed. Within this frame, among the 54 indicators which can be used to read and to appraise a zoning process there are also Marketing and Promotion as fundamental factors of the so-called “GRANDE ZONAZIONE” (GZ) (“Great Zoning”). This GZ starts from economic, social and existential aspects which represent from the bottom of the chain the “GRANDI OBIETTIVI) (GO) (“Great Objectives”) of the vine growing process too and therefore of zoning and does not start from “technical” aspects which are typical of the so-called “Small Zoning” or ” Thematic Zoning”, as for instance soil, climate, vineyard model and its management, etc., which instead represent the “tools” to reach the “great objectives” above quoted (Cargnello G. 1997 and 2003).
Hence, we have to emphasize that the “great objectives” must not be confused, as it often happens also in our research groups, with the means used for achieving such objectives.
The goal of this work is to stress the basic role that either economic issues or marketing and promotion assume in zoning. The latter, however, should be managed in a fair and unbiased way according to the other technical, economic-social and existential factors of the production process as stated in the so-called “Great Chain”.
The work has been carried out in the Northeast part of Italy, in the Veneto Region and, more specifically, in the Province of Treviso in the “TERRA DELLA VALLE DEL PIAVE” (“Land of the Piave Valley”), taking into account the following basic methodology: Cargnello G., (1999); 2003a; Carbonneau A., Cargnello G., (2003).
The philosophical, methodological and application results coming from these researches are very encouraging. They induce us to intensify them in order to put into practice, in the zoning process, the technical, economic, social and existential indications on the “Great Zoning”, which emerge from these researches.

Late frost protection in Champagne

Probably one of the most counterintuitive impacts of climate change on vine is the increased frequency of late frost. Champagne, due to its septentrional position is historically and regularly affected by this meteorological hazard. Champagne has therefore developed a strong experience in frost protection with first experiments dating from the end of 19th century. Frost protection can be divided in two parts: passive and active. Passive protection includes all the methods that do not seek to modify the vine’s environment or resistance at the time of frost. The most iconic passive protection in Champagne is the establishment of the individual reserve. This reserve allows to stock a certain quantity of clear wine during a surplus year to compensate a meteorological hazard like frost during the following years. Other common passive methods are the control of planting area (walls, bushes, topography), the choice of grape variety, late pruning, or the impact of grass cover and tillage. Active frost protection is also divided in two parts. Most of the existing techniques tend to modify vine’s environment. Most of the time they provide warmth (candles, heaters, windmills, heating cables…), or stabilise bud’s temperature above a lethal threshold (water sprinkling). The other way to actively fight is to enhance the resistance of buds to frost (elicitors). The Comité Champagne evaluates frost protection methods following three main axes: the efficiency, the profitability, and the environmental impact through a lifecycle assessment. This study will present the results on both passive and active protection following these three axes.

Chemical and microbiological evaluation of Ribeiro wines (NW Spain)

Wine produced under Designation of Origin (DOP) Ribeiro, the oldest DOP in Galicia (NW Spain), are elaborated using local grape cultivars, grown at the valleys of Miño, Avia and Arnoia rivers. The landscape formed by slopes and terraces and the peculiar climate of continental character, softened by the proximity of Atlantic Ocean, make it an area of excellent aptitude for vine cultivation. In addition, small-scale farming and the use of traditional techniques for vineyard management provide a great diversity to Ribeiro wines. This study presents the evaluation of red and white wines (bottled or bulk wines) from DOP Ribeiro, produced between years 2018-2022.

Inert gases persistence in wine storage tank blanketing

It is common to find tanks in the winery with wine below their capacity due to wine transfers between tanks of different capacities or the interruption of operations for periods of a few days. This situation implies the existence of an ullage space in the tank with prolonged contact with the wine causing its absorption/oxidation. Oxygen uptake from the air headspace over the wine due to differences in the partial pressure of O2 can be rapid, up to 1.5 mL of O2 per liter of wine in one hour and 100 cm2 of surface area1 and up to saturation after 4 hours.

Validation of the viticulture zoning methodology applied to determine the homogenous soil units present on D.O. Ribera de Duero region

The methodology to viticulture zoning developed and proposed by Gómez-Miguel and Sotés (1992) has been studied in order to validate it. This was the main aim of this work
