Revisión de estudios sobre suelos vitícolas de las tierras del Jerez

The geology of the Western Cape testifies to the former existence of a late Precambrian supercontinent, its fragmentation, the closure of an ocean between the South African and South American continental precursors (Kalahari and Rio de la Plata cratons), the accumulation of marine sediments and limestones, and their compression during a collision between these cratons

The wine sector is one of the most significant industries worldwide, with Spain being a leading country in wine production and export. A key factor in wine quality is its aroma, which is directly influenced by the volatile compounds present in the grape, with terpenes being among the most significant contributors.

En Anjou, une méthode de caractérisation des terroirs viticoles a été développée. Elle utilise un modèle de terrain basé sur la profondeur de sol et son degré d’argilisation.

New and developing technologies, that provide sensors and the software systems for using and interpreting them, are becoming pervasive through our lives and society. From smart phones to cars to farm machinery, all contain a range of sensors that are monitored automatically with intelligent software, providing us with the information we need, when we need it. This technological revolution has the potential to monitor all aspects of vineyard activity, assisting growers to make the management choices they need to achieve the outcomes they want. For example, a future vineyard may possess automated imaging that generates a three dimensional model of the vine canopy, highlighting differences from the desired structure and how to use canopy management to improve fruit composition, or generates maps with yield estimates and measurements of berry composition throughout the growing season.

Vinification trials were carried out between 2018 and 2021 in the experimental winery at Laimburg Research Centre, Alto Adige, to test the effect of grape stem inclusion during fermentation of Pinot Noir.
