Application of zoning for wine production, digitalisation and traceability

Abstract

Depuis la création des outils d’amélioration et de suivi de la qualité, le CREDO développe et réalise des zonages de potentialités viticoles.
Le rendu des travaux est synthétisé sur des cartes et constitue une base documentaire.
Certaines communes de grande qualité, dans le souci d’approfondir ces travaux, ont chargé, de 1988 à 1992, le CREDO et le BRGM de réaliser ces études. Les travaux entrepris furent affinés par la réalisation de campagnes d’ouverture de fosses pédologiques et une réflexion sur la méthodologie et la nomenclature en relation avec les syndicats viticoles.
En 2001, le CREDO, à la demande d’une commune et d’une cave, a informatisé ces travaux.
La numérisation de 1797 parcelles réparties sur les 6 communes de Vinsobres, Mirabel, Nyons, Piégon, Valréas et Venterol en utilisant un Système d’Information Géographique et un logiciel de gestion des données a conduit à la mise en œuvre de différentes étapes dont la méthodologie est la suivante :
– Scannérisation des planches cadastrales
– Géoréférencement des plans par rapport aux coordonnées Lambert
– Création de la base de donnée (Communes, Parcelles, Superficie, etc.)
– Numérisation du parcellaire
– Liaison du SIG et de la base de données
– Correction en partenariat avec les professionnels
– Impression des plans au format A4, A3 ou A0.
Ce travail permet de réaliser des cartes thématiques en fonction des besoins de l’utilisateur. Par exemple, le CREDO a réalisé des cartes d’âge des vignes pour gérer la restructuration, des cartes de terroirs d’un cépage pour visualiser différentes nuances au sein d’une unité variétale afin d’élaborer une cuvée Sélection Terroir.
Ainsi les producteurs seront en mesure de gérer au mieux les caractéristiques des raisins entrant dans leurs chais et optimiser leur vinification.
Intérêt de l’étude :
– Disposer d’une base de données géoréférencées, facilitant une mise à jour régulière et fournissant des informations parfaitement compatibles avec les logiciels de traçabilité.
– Permettre une visualisation graphique d’un parcellaire, avec toutes les implications de gestion et de marketing que cela implique.
– Optimisation des apports et meilleure gestion de l’élaboration de cuvées.
– Traçabilité des produits et caractérisation des apports.
– Création de fichiers base de données utilisables par les producteurs à partir des logiciels du commerce.

Since the creation of tools for improving and monitoring quality, the CREDO has been developing and establishing zoning for potential wine producing areas.
The result of the work is summarized on maps and constitutes a documentary basis.
Between 1988 and 1992, certain communes with very high quality have requested the CREDO and the BRGM to carry out these studies with a view to going into further detail in this work. The work done was improved by the carrying out of campaigns to open pedological ditches and deliberations on the methodology and classification terms in conjunction with wine producing associations.
In 2001, the CREDO computerized this work at the request of one commune and one wine producing cellar.
The digitalization of 1797 sections of land spread over the 6 communes of Vinsobres, Mirabel, Nyons, Piégon, Valréas and Venterol using a Geographic Information System and a software program for data management has led to the implementation of various stages whose methodology is as follows:
– Land registry sheets have been scanned
– Drawings have been referenced geographically with relation to the Lambert co-ordinates
– The creation of the data base (Communes, Sections of Land, Area, etc.)
– Digitalisation of the sections of land
– Link between the GIS and the data base
– Correction in partnership with the professionals
– The printing of drawings in A4, A3 or A0 format
– This work has enabled theme maps to be produced depending on the user’s needs. For example, the CREDO has produced maps of the ages of vines in order to manage restructuring and maps of the territories of the grape varieties in order to view various sub­sections within a variety as a whole in order to establish a Cuvée Sélection Terroir.
In this way, producers can optimise the management of the characteristics of the grapes entering their wine- making facilities and their vinification.
Usefulness of the study:
– To dispose of a data base that is referenced geographically, thus making it easier to update it regularly and supplying information that is perfectly compatible with traceability software.
– To enable graphie viewing of sections of land with all the value for management and marketing that that implies.
– The optimisation of contributions and irnproved management of the elaboration of wines.
– Traceability of the products and characterisation of the contributions.
– The creation of data base files that can be used by producers using commercial software.

Incidences of the climate, the soil and the harvest date on Colombard aromatic potential in Gascony

This experiment tries to characterize the role of soil, climate and harvest date on the composition of grape-derivated thiols, 3-mercapto-hexanol (3MH) and 3-mercapto-hexile acetate (A3MH), in the white wines from Colombard varieties in Gascony (South-West of France). A network of 6 plots has been observed since 1999 on different pedologic units. The plots have common agronomical characteristics, plantation spacing (2,900 to 3,500 vines per ha), plantation aging (1985-1990), strength conferred by rootstock (SO4, RSB), soil management (grass covered 1 by 2) and training system (vertical shoot positionning pruned in single Guyot). Meteorological stations are located near the plots.

Un Système d’Informations à Références Spatiales sur le Vignoble. Un outil performant d’aide aux recherches sur la caractérisation des terroirs viticoles

The “Terroirs d’Anjou” project led by the Agronomy sector of the Vine and Wine Research Unit of the INRA center in Angers aims to characterize the viticultural terroirs in a study area which includes 29 municipalities in the Maine et Loire and cuts across the Anjou, Coteaux du layon and Coteaux de l’Aubance appellation areas.

Impact of electrolyzed water applied as an alternative treatment in vineyard on grape and wine quality

The main issues in viticulture are to highly decrease the use of phytochemicals. Electrolyzed water (EW) is one of the possible alternative when illness pressure is not too high

NEAR INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY FOR THE ESTIMATION OF TEMPRANILLO BLANCO VOLATILE COMPOSITION ALONG GRAPE MATURATION

Grape volatile compounds are mainly responsible for wine aroma, so it is important to know the va-rietal aromatic composition throughout ripening process. Currently, there are no tools that allow mea-suring the aromatic composition of grapes, in intact berries and periodically, throughout ripening, in the vineyard or in the winery. For this reason, this work evaluated the use of near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) to estimate the aromatic composition and total soluble solids (TSS) of Tempranillo Blanco berries during ripening. For this purpose, NIR spectra (1100-2100 nm) were acquired from 240 samples of in-tact berries, collected at different dates, from veraison to overripening.

Fingerprinting the origin of rosé wines with a new high throughput polyphenomics method

Wine is a widely consumed alcoholic beverage with a high commercial value. More specifically, the worldwide consumption of rosé wine has increased by 20% since 2002[1]. But because of its high commercial value, it can become a subject of fraud, and authenticity control is necessarily required. More than one hundred polyphenols have been recently quantified in various rosé wines [2]. They are key components defining color, taste and quality of wines. Their amount and composition depend on many different factors such as grape variety, winemaking and age of the wine. In this study, the influence of geographic origin of some rosé French wines was investigated. An original and very fast UPLC-QTOF-MS method was developed and used to predict the geographic origin authenticity of rosé wines.
