Application of viticulture zoning in Istria (Croatia) as important element for valorization of all territory resources (product, environment, tourism and others)

Abstract

[English version below]

Un projet touristique innovant est en cours dans la zone historique croate d’Istrie Centrale, autour de la magnifique ville de Motovun. L’approche méthodologique repose sur le concept de «Système Productif-Global du Territoire» et s’appuie tout particulièrement sur celui de « Zonage Vitivinicole ». Elle tient compte de toutes les facettes, définies dans celui de « Grand Zonage » (Cargnello G., 1999). L’une des composantes fondamentales dans ce zonage vitivinicole est la prise en considération du Teran, variété intéressante autochtone historique, qui produit un vin rouge très typique et très lié au milieu. Dans ce programme de zonage vitivinicole, ce vin a été « restauré » à travers une sélection clona le appropriée et l’application en vignoble et en cave de techniques et technologies d’innovation, en tenant compte bien évidemment du produit, du consommateur et du producteur. Dans ce zonage vitivinicole, on a pris en considération par ailleurs les lieux, les dispositions foncières, l’orientation des rangs, les strµctures portantes (hauteurs, matériels, etc.), les systèmes de conduite, les systèmes de taille, la gestion de la végétation, de la production et de la vendange, les structures de transformation et de mise en bouteilles, ainsi que des aspects de communication et de marketing, et encore les structures pour la restauration et pour l’hébergement des touristes.

For construction of one innovative tourist project, was taken the historie zone of central Istria, the city of Motovun, with a rich agriculture and other territory resources. The project was done according facts of Global productive system of territory, with special accent to application of Global productive system of viticulture territory, as previously described Cargnello (1999) in the works about “grande” zoning. One very important component in the valorization process of Motovun city is certainly vine variety named Teran. Variety Teran done the red, hard vine, very special for agro-climatic condition of Motovun area. In this research was done the “reconstruction” of this historie variety, with aim to change in viticulture and vine technology, taken all specificity of tourist market and producer skills. For needs of zoning investigation was taken all specific factors of Motovun area, like: characteristic of soil, the vineyards surfaces, training form, yield and other. The special accent was done to marketing of product, in the chain grape-cellar-win-bottle-consumer. Like a specific consumer in this zone, exist the seasonal tourist market.

Influence of the irrigation period in Tempranillo grapevine, under the edaphoclimatic conditions of the Duero river valley

Irrigation of vineyards is a matter of controversial arguments at areas of high quality wine production. Besides, the effects of the water in the plant are closer related to the water availability than to the irrigation regime.

How can historical cultivars mitigate the effects of climate change?

IFV, INRAe and the national network “Partenaires de la Sélection Vigne” representing 37 organizations from the different wine regions, have been working increasingly closely over the last 2 decades towards the preservation of the French varietal patrimony. There are approximately 600 patrimonial varieties according to INRAe and SupAgro Montpellier experts, including ancient cultivars (400) and intravarietal crossbreeds obtained since the 19th century. In the context of a drastic reduction in such varieties from the mid 1980’s in favor of mainstream varieties, it was essential to carry out an inventory of old vines and vineyards. INRAe Vassal collection plays a key role here as it holds the largest diversity available, along with a rich bibliography and herbariums, offering us the opportunity to document and double check the identity of a cultivar, consolidating the expertise of ampelographers. The work is carried out in several stages, from verifying the existence of a variety in a small region, through to rehabilitation. During this session, the authors present the process that leads to the official registration of a variety. After this, IFV selection center takes over to initiate the process of selection and propagation. A specific focus within regions such as the Alps, Champagne and the South-West will provide details of the full procedure. Bia, Bouysselet, Chardonnay rose, Mecle and the aptly named Tardif, are some of the cultivars that have followed this procedure. Furthermore, a recent regulation established by INAO on “varieties of interest for adaptation purposes” might boost uptake by growers. Since 2006, 36 historical cultivars have been registered. Most of these have been neglected in the past due to late maturity, lack of sugar and high titratable acidity at harvest time. Such characteristics are today considered as positive qualities, not only in mitigation of the effects of climate change, but also as an opportunity for restoring diversity…

Bacterial community in different wine appellations – biotic and abiotic interaction in grape berry and its impact on Botrytis cinerea development

An in-depth knowledge on the conditions that trigger Botrytis disease and the microbial community associated with the susceptibility/resistance to it could led to the anticipation and response to the Botrytis emergence and severity. Therefore, the present study pretends to establish links between biotic and abiotic factors and the presence/abundance of B. cinerea.
