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.

MONITOR SOME KEY PARAMETERS THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OFCONTINUOUS CONTROL SYSTEMS OF THE MUST-WINE DURING MACERATION-FERMENTATION IN RED WINEMAKING TO MANAGE OPERATIONS IN “AUTOMATION”

This study is aimed to develop a complete tool for the winemaker with, complete and targeted “winemaking recipes” that can be adapted to criteria set by the winemaker, such as: grape variety, grape health status, degree of ripening, desired wine, redox status throughout the alcoholic fermentation. To get such aim, specific sets of experiments using red grape juices from different varieties (Nebbiolo, Barbera, Pinot noir, etc.) collected at different technological and phenolic maturity points, will be held with “automatized 4.0 tanks” equipped with sensors for measuring: redox potential, dissolved oxygen, relative density, temperature, and color in order to collect a sufficient amount of data preparatory to the creation of operating models in the most widely winemaking situations in which the automatized 4.0 tanks “will be able to independently respond” with the right corrective actions (opening/closing aeration valve, execution/block pumping overs , etc.) if the key parameters exceed the limits of the recommended ranges set in the selected recipe.

Influence of wood chips addition during alcoholic fermentation on wine phenolic composition

This study investigates the effect of wood chips addition during the alcoholic fermentation on the phenolic
composition of the produced wines. A series of wood chips, originating from American, French, Slavonia
oak and Acacia were added at the beginning of wine alcoholic fermentation. Besides, a mixture consisting
of 50% French and 50% Americal oak chips were added during the experimentation. The wine samples
were analyzed one month after the end of malolactic fermentation, examining various chemical
parameters such as total anthocyanins, total phenolic content, tannins combined with protein (BSA) and
ellagitannin content.

Characterization of various groups of pyranoanthocyanins in Merlot red wine

In red wines, anthocyanins evolve during the wine-making process and ageing. They react with other compounds (such as vinylphenols, acetaldehyde, pyruvic acid…) to form a stable family of compounds called pyranoanthocyanins. Furthermore, the oxidation process can modify the anthocyanic profile of a red wine. It is also interesting to evaluate the occurrence of the different subclasses of pyranoanthocyanins and to characterize their chemical properties. The first objective of this study is to evaluate the occurrence of the different groups of pyranoanthocyanins in an oxidised Merlot wine by a centrifugal partition chromatography strategy. The second goal is to evaluate their relative impact in red wines from Bordeaux region by measuring their concentrations.

The characterization of Vitis vinifera L cv. Cabernet sauvignon: the contribution of Ecklonia maxima seaweed extract

Biostimulants and biofertilizers are considered environmentally friendly and cost-effective alternatives to synthetic fertilizers, plant growth regulators and crop improvement products. Broadly, plant biostimulants are expected to improve nutrient use efficiency, tolerance to abiotic stress, quality traits and availability of nutrients in the soil or rhizosphere. Currently, seaweed extracts account for more than 33% of the total plant biostimulant market. Within this category, Ascophyllum nodosum (AN), is the most widely studied and applied in biostimulant formulations.
