Campania region grapevine patrimony: a determination of the heat requirement of 19 nearly all-native ultivars. Nine years of observations.

Abstract

[English version below]

Nous avons peu d’informations sur les cépages cultivés dans la région de la Campania (sud de l’ltalie). En particulier insuffisant sont les études sur les besoins thermiques de tels cépages. Les études sur les besoins thermiques des cépages peuvent contribuer au positionnement correct des cultivars dans les zones capables d’optimiser le rapport génotype-environnement des cépages du quel dépend, l’expression qualitative de la production. Pour les dites motivations nous avons effectué la présente étude, dans laquelle nous avons déterminé les conditions thermiques de 19 cépages presque tous indigènes de la Région, ayant comme référence le modèle proposé par AMERINE et WINKLER (1944). L’étude qui a déterminé une exigence de la chaleur des variétés étudies variables de 1625 degré-jours ( cv Fiano) a 2011 degré-jours (Bianca Zita), ajoute une autre étape à la connaissance du patrimoine viticole de la Campania.

 

There is little information on the grapevines cultivated in the Campania region (south of ltaly). In particular insufficient are the studies on the thermal requirements of such grapevines. Trials on the thermal needs of the grapevines may contribute to the correct positioning of the cultivars in areas able to optimise the environment genotype ratio of a cultivar on which, qualitative expression of the production depends. For said motivations it has been set up the present study, in which it was determined the thermal requirements of 19 cultivars nearly all native of the Region, having like reference the model proposed by AMERINE and WINKLER (1944). The study that evidenced an heat requirement of the studied cultivars variable from 1625 degree-days (cv Fiano) to 2011 degree-days (Bianca Zita), adds an other step to the acquaintance of the Campania grapevine patrimony.

ACIDIC AND DEMALIC SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE STRAINS FOR MANAGING PROBLEMS OF ACIDITY DURING THE ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION

In a recent study several genes controlling the acidification properties of the wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been identified by a QTL approach [1]. Many of these genes showed allelic variations that affect the metabolism of malic acid and the pH homeostasis during the alcoholic fermentation. Such alleles have been used for driving genetic selection of new S. cerevisiae starters that may conversely acidify or deacidify the wine by producing or consuming large amount of malic acid [2]. This particular feature drastically modulates the final pH of wine with difference of 0.5 units between the two groups.

Vintage influence on Grenache N, Syrah N and Mourvedre N in Côtes du Rhône (France)

Vintage is part of « terroir ». The aim of this work is to study, through vine and berry parameters, the effect of vintage on the three major red grape varieties in Côtes du Rhône : Grenache N, Syrah N and Mourvedre N. We first characterized vintages 1997 to 2003, highlighting similar features in grape development across the different cultivars since 2001 only.

Evaluation of the composition of pomace from grapes grown in the slopes of the Popocatépetl volcano (Puebla, Mexico). Feasibility of its application for obtaining functional foods

Grape pomace is the main byproduct generated during wine production and is primarily composed of skins and seeds, which are obtained after the pressing stage [1]. This byproduct retains a significant amount of nutrients, such as fiber, phenolic compounds, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals.

OENOLOGICAL STRATEGIES FOR THE REMOVAL OF PINKING IN WHITE WINE

The pinking of in white wine is the turning of color from yellow to salmon hue. White wines obtained from certain grape varieties (e.g. Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, Riesling, Trebbiano di Lugana) showed to be susceptible to pinking [1] that has been evaluated by an assay providing the addition of hydrogen peroxide. Even if its appearance does not seem to affect the sensory properties [2], strategies are necessary for its removal. Nowadays, the treatment with polyvinylpolipirroline (PVPP) was reported to significantly decrease the pink color [3].
