Climat et sol: critères d’évaluation et effets sur le comportement de la vigne

Abstract

Le zonage viticole aborde en premier lieu la caractérisation des macroclimats aux échelles des grandes régions, pays, continents ou monde (géoviticulture). La méthodologie de caractérisation climatique et les premières applications au niveau des zones climatiques viticoles, sont présentés par Jorge Tonietto et Alain Carbonneau dans l’article du même ouvrage “Systèmes de Classification Climatique Multicritères (CCM) Géoviticole”, suite aux publications de Tonietto et Carbonneau, 1998a et 1999, et de Tonietto, 1999. Le présent article s’adresse aux échelles du terroir (interaction mésoclimat x sol/sous-sol), de la petite région ou de la parcelle.
Dans une première partie un rappel sera fait de l’influence du climat sur un cycle végétatif moyen de la vigne. Dans une seconde partie les méthodes de caractérisation des sols seront résumées, puis la méthodologie du bilan hydrique potentiel du sol sera approfondie. Dans une troisième partie, sur la base du réseau de terroirs pour le cépage Syrah dans le midi de la France, les principaux éléments de la typicité des vins seront mis en relation avec des variables du climat, du sol et du comportement de la vigne.

INFLUENCE OF CHITOSAN, ABSCISIC ACID AND BENZOTHIADIAZOLE TREATMENTS ON SAVVATIANO (VITIS VINIFERA L.) WINES VOLATILE COMPOSITION PROFILE

In the last decades the use of bioestimulants in viticulture have been promoted as alternative to conven- tional pesticides. Moreover, as bioestimulants promote the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in grape berries, several studies had investigated their influence on the accumulation of phenolic com- pounds (Monteiro et al., 2022). However, few studies, so far, are focused on the accumulation of the vo- latile compounds and their impact on the produced wines (Giménez-Bañón et al., 2022; Gomez- Plaza et al., 2012; Ruiz Garcia et al., 2014).
This study was conducted in a single vineyard of white autochthonous grapevine variety Savvatia- no (Vitis vinifera L.) in Muses Valley (Askri, Viotia, Greece). Chitosan (CHT), Abscisic Acid (ABA) and Benzothiadiazole (BTH) were applied.

High throughput winter pruning weight estimation based on wood volume evaluation 

There is currently a real need to improve and speed-up phenotyping in experimental set-ups to increase the number of modalities studied. Accurate information acquisition on plant status with high-throughput capacity is the main appeal of on-board systems.
A proximal sensing camera for a proxy of winter pruning weight was tested. We estimated the shoot volume of the vine by image analysis using algorithms that integrate the local shoot section area estimate along the shoot skeleton obtained by a morphological distance transform.
The study was carried out on the GreffAdapt experimental vineyard in Guyot simple training and a canopy management using vertical trellising. The planting density is 6250 vines/ha with a row spacing of 1.6×1m. Five scions grafted onto 55 rootstocks are present and the combination rootstock×scion is different every five plants.

Defining the mechanisms and impact of winemaking treatments on tannin and polysaccharides in red wine: recent progress in creating diverse styles

Tannin and polysaccharide concentration and composition is important in defining the texture of red wines, but can vary due to factors such as cultivar, region, grape ripeness, viticultural practices and winemaking techniques. However, the concentration and composition of these macromolecules is dependent not only on grape tannin and polysaccharide concentration and composition, but also their extractability and, in the case of polysaccharides, their formation by yeast. Through studies into the influence of grape maturity, winemaking and sensory impacts of red grape polysaccharides, seed and skin tannins, recent research in our laboratory has shown that the processes involved in the extraction of these macromolecules from grapes and their retention in wine are very complex.
