The influence of different fertiliser applications and canopy management practices on the potassium content and pH of juice and wine of Vitis vinifera L. cvs. Cabernet-Sauvignon and Cabernet franc

Among the Moscato grapes, Moscato Giallo is a winegrape variety characterized by a high content of free and glycosylated monoterpenoids, which gives very aromatic wines. The aromatic bouquet of Moscato Giallo is strongly influenced by the high concentration of linalool, geraniol, linalool oxides, limonene, α-terpineol, citronellol, HO-trienol, HO-diols, 8-Hydroxylinalool, geranic acid and β-myrcene, that give citrus, rose, and peach notes.

Prospective studies raise a real intellectual interest for those who contribute to them or take cognizance of it. But they are often considered too difficult to operationalize

AIM: Organic production of wine in the past years has known an important augmentation. This type of cultivation practice switches synthetic phytosanitary product for copper-based protection as fungicide.

In vineyards grown in warm areas, it is usual that the stage of maturity of the grapes is fast and easily reach a high concentration of sugar and low acidity, but not a adequate phenolic maturation. The geometry of the trellis system and the shoot density can modify the microclimate of the cluster and, therefore, the maturation process.

Aims: Soils are an intrinsic feature of the landscape and have influenced culturally and economically important terroir delineation in many wine-producing regions of the world. Soil physiochemical properties govern a wide array of ecosystem services, and can therefore affect grapevine health and fruit development. These physiochemical properties can reflect a combination of factors,
