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.

Variety and climatic effects on quality scores in the Western US winegrowing regions

Wine quality is strongly linked to climate. Quality scores are often driven by climate variation across different winegrowing regions and years, but also influenced by other aspects of terroir, including variety. While recent work has looked at the relationship between quality scores and climate across many European regions, less work has examined New World winegrowing regions. Here we used scores from three major rating systems (Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator) combined with daily climate and phenology data to understand what drives variation across wine quality scores in major regions of the Western US, including regions in California, Oregon and Washington. We examined effects of variety, region, and in what phenological period climate was most predictive of quality. As in other studies, we found climate, based mainly on growing degree day (GDD) models, was generally associated with quality—with higher GDD associated with higher scores—but variety and region also had strong effects. Effects of region were generally stronger than variety. Certain varieties received the highest scores in only some areas, while other varieties (e.g., Merlot) generally scored lower across regions. Across phenological stages, GDD during budbreak was often most strongly associated with quality. Our results support other studies that warmer periods generally drive high quality wines, but highlight how much region and variety drive variation in scores outside of climate.

Which heat test can realistically estimate white wine haze risk?

Different heat tests are used to predict the dose of bentonite necessary to prevent wine haze after bottling. The most used tests are 60-120 min. at 80°C. Nevertheless, there is a lack of information about the relationship between these tests and the turbidities observed in the bottles after the storage/transport of the wines in realistic conditions, when temperatures reach 35-42°C during 3-12 days.

Assessment of wine non-Saccharomyces yeast strains as promising producers of glutathione

AIM: Glutathione (GSH) is a non-protein thiol naturally present in grape berries and produced by yeasts during fermentation. It has a strong antioxidant activity, thus can be added during winemaking to limit the oxidative phenomena of wine, preserving sensory characteristics and stability, ultimately promoting a healthier product by reducing the need for SO2 addition.

Landscapes of Vines and Wines Patrimony – Stakes – Valorisation

The interaction between wine and landscapes is of an unsuspected richness. On the one side, the vineyards form part of the landscapes which they model. On the other side, the wines are related in their perception to the image of a region, a landscape and are at the origin of a cultural richness.

Application of remote sensing by unmanned aerial vehicles to map variability in Ontario Riesling and Cabernet Franc vineyards

The objective of this investigation was to verify usefulness of proximal sensing technology and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for mapping variables e.g., vine size (potential vigor), soil and vine water status, yield, fruit composition, and virus incidence in vineyards.
