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.

Alcoholic fermentation is an anaerobic biochemical process of oxidation-reduction in which carbohydrates are metabolized by the action of yeast enzymes in major products

Identifying research opportunities at Douro Demarcated Region

The Douro Demarcated Region, in Northern Portugal, offers outstanding wines with unique characteristics. Due to the today’s globalized marketplace, local producers often need to further develop their cultivation techniques to remain competitive. The Association of Viticultural Development in the Douro Valley (ADVID) works as a unit of experimentation, offering services and training to meet the demands of the Douro’s vitiviniculturists.

IN DEPTH CHARACTERIZATION OF OENOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF TWO LACHANCEA THERMOTOLERANS STARTER STRAINS

Non-Saccharomyces starter cultures became increasingly popular over the years because of their potential to produce more distinctive and unique wines. The major benefit of the use of Lachancea thermotolerans as a fermentation starter is its ability to produce relevant amounts of lactic acid and reduce alcoholic strength, making it valuable for mitigating negative impacts of climate change on grapes and wine quality. Besides, like any other non-Saccharomyces yeast, L. thermotolerans can significantly affect a whole range of other physico-chemical wine parameters.

Influence of maceration time and temperature on some bioactive compounds in Malvazija istarska white wines

The rising trend of moderate wine consumption as a part of a healthy lifestyle promotes white wines with higher phenolic content because of their bioactive properties. Duration and temperature of the maceration process have a marked impact on the content and composition of wine phenolics. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of applying maceration processes of different durations and temperature on total phenolic content and flavan-3-ol compounds concentration of Malvazija istarska (Vitis vinifera L.) wines, an autochthonous Croatian white grape variety. Vinification took place at the Institute of Agriculture and Tourism (Poreč) where pre-fermentative two days cryomaceration treatment at 8 °C (CRYO), seven days maceration treatment at 16 °C (M7), and prolonged post-fermentative maceration treatments at 16 °C for 14 days (M14), 21 day (M21), and 42 days (M42) were studied and compared to non-maceration control treatment (C). Total phenolic content was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu colorimetric method using a UV/VIS spectrophotometer and the results were expressed as gallic acid equivalents (mg/L GAE).

Chemical and sensory evolution of total and partial dealcoholized wine in a can

In recent years, wine consumption has been evolving towards new trends. On the one hand, awareness of health and responsible consumption has been growing, and with it, the demand for wines with lower or without alcohol content [1].
