Enological, economical, social and viticulture ”terroir” units as fundamental elements of mosaic of “big” zoning

Abstract

[English version below]

Nous savons tous très bien qu’on a assisté au cours de ces dix dernières années à une éclosion soudaine de recherches sur le zonage viti-vinicole qui, à partir par exemple du modèle du concept de “terroir”, se sont de plus en plus enrichies en passant aux “Unités ou Systèmes de Transformation” (UTTE) et “Valorisation” (UTCE) pour terminer avec les “Systèmes productifs globaux du Territoire” (UTB) comprenant en filière les aspects existentiels (UTBES), sociaux (UTBSO) et économiques (UTBEC) hypothisés dans le “GRANDE ZONAZIONE: Grand zonage” (MORLAT R., 1996, CARBONNEAU A., 1996, TOUZARD J.M. 1998, CARBONNEAU A., CARGNELLO G., 1996, 1998, CARGNELLO G., 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2001, -MILOTIC A., CARGNELLO G., PERSURIC G., 1999, PERSURIC G., STAYER M., CARGNELLO G., 2000, MILOTIC A., OPLANIC M., CARGNELLO G., PERSURIC G., 2000).

Nous sommes donc arrivés à supposer que pour zoner en viticulture, et non pas seulement en viticulture, il faut partir des considérations : existentielles, sociales, économiques qui représentent les différents échelons des grands objectifs du zonage, en se servant pour les rejoindre des moyens placés en filière suivants : “terroir” vignoble (exemple : variété, clones, écartement, systèmes de conduite, gestion de la végétation, de la production et de la vendange, etc.), cave ( exemple : utilisation des appareillages, technologies et techniques d’innovation, etc.), communication, marketing, etc., comme on l’a prévu dans le “GRAND ZONAGE” (CARGNELLO G., 1996). Pour vérifier la validité de cette “nouvelle” organisation du zonage viti-vinicole, nous avons conduit en Istrie (Croatie) pour une durée de 5 ans des recherches pour établir si le zonage devait descendre uniquement des aspects concernant le “terroir” ou s’il devait descendre des aspects qui partent de considérations d’ordre social et économique et ensuite de celles “techniques” comprenant la cave, le vignoble, le terrain et le climat. Les recherches conduites en Istrie (Croatie) sur les objectifs et sur les moyens cités ci-dessus ont démontré ultérieurement la validité de ce moyen de procéder dans le zonage viti-vinicole. Elles ont démontré par ailleurs que l’incidence du “terroir” à un niveau décisionnel dans le zonage viti-vinicole peut s’amenuiser par rapport aux autres composantes et en être même dépassée, c’est-à-dire que l’on a justement décidé dans certains cas de faire un vignoble dans un terroir non adapté à la viticulture car les “Unités de Culture Viticole, de Transformation, de Valorisation” et les systèmes productifs globaux ont eu une importance fondamentale pour le zonage. Ces recherches seront exposées dans cette communication.

In the any last decade was the large number of research about viticulture zoning. The begin of zoning research was funded on the term and principle of “terroir”. Then, the term “terroir” was divided to “unite de terroir de base”, “unité de système de culture viticole”, “unite o sisteme de transformation e valorizazion” and as the last new segment “sistemi produtivi globali del territorio” (the global productive system of territory). All this new terms, with a respect to social and economical aspects has a unique name of ”.big” zoning (GRANDE ZONAZIONE) (MORLAT R. 1996, CARBONNEAU A., 1996, TOUZARD J.M., CARBONNEAU A., CARGNELLO G., 1998, CARGNELLO G., 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2001, MILOTIC A., CARGNELLO G., PERSURIC G. 1999, PERSURIC G., STAVER M., CARGNELLO G., 2000, MILOTIC A, OPLANIC M., CARGNELLO G., PERSURIC G., 2000).

According quoted annotation for successfully process of viticulture zoning, and not only to viticulture, need to start of next items : existence, social aspects, economic aspects, which present the different stairs in the zoning process. The sequence of next terms, “terroir” – vineyards (for example: variety, clone, training form, canopy management, yield and other) – vine cellar (for example : technology of wine making) – communication – marketing make a important factors to process of “big” zoning.For confirm the quoted “new” hypothesis in the zoning process was done the research in the Istria (Croatia). For needs of research was taken all social and economical aspects and then the different techniques in vine growing and wine making, and the characteristics of soil am climate.The research made in Istria was confirmed the hypothesis of “big” zoning process. This research was confirmed also the importance of “terroir” and in the same moment the importance of lower units “unite de culture viticole de transformation de valorisation” for viticulture production.

Adsorption capacity of phenolics compounds by polyaniline materials in model solution

The aim of this work was to study the trapping capacity of four polyaniline polymers towards phenolic compounds in wine-like model solutions. METHODS: The model wine solution was composed of 12% (v/v) and 4 g/L of tartaric acid adjusted to pH = 3.6. A series of centrifuge tubes (15 mL) were filled with 10 mL of model solution enriched with 50 mg/L of five phenolic compounds (i.e., Gallic acid, caffeic acid, (+)-catechin, (-)-epicatechin, and rutin), and treated with different doses of PANI polymer (i.e., 0, 2, 4 and 8 g/L). After the addition of the polymer, the samples were stirred using a platform shaker at room temperature (20 ºC) for 2, 8, 16 and 24 h. All treatments included three replications.

During spirit beverages production, the distillate is divided in three parts: the head, the heart, and the tail. Acetaldehyde and ethanol are two key markers which allow the correct separation of distillate. Being toxic, the elimination of the head part, which contains high concentration of acetaldehyde, is crucial to guarantee the consumer’s health and security. Plus, the tail should be separated from the heart based on ethanol concentration.

Given the number of practices claimed to be environment-friendly, it is sometimes difficult to prioritize actions.

Molecular characterization of a variegated grapevine mutant cv Bruce’s Sport

Variegation, a frequently observed trait in plants, is characterized by the occurrence of white or discoloured plant tissue. This phenomenon is attributed to genetic mosaicism or chimerism, potentially impacting the epidermal (L1) and subepidermal (L2) cell layers. In grapevine, variegation manifests as white or paler leaf, flower, or berry tissues, often leading to stunted growth and impeded development. Despite its prevalence, variegation in grapevines remains understudied.
