Étude de l’adaptation des cépages Muscat à petits grains et Muscat d’Alexandrie dans l’A.O.C. Muscat de Rivesaltes

Abstract

L’A.O.C. Muscat de Rivesaltes prévoit l’utilisation de 2 cépages Muscats : le Muscat à petits grains (M.P.G) et le Muscat d’Alexandrie (M.A).
A la demande du Syndicat de l’A.O.C. Muscat de Rivesaltes et avec la participation de l’I.N.A.O., la Station VitiVinicole a mis en place une étude pour connaître l’adaptation de ces 2 cépages en fonction des différents terroirs de l’A.O.C. Muscat de Rivesaltes.
L’étude d’un échantillon de V.D.N. muscats, par cépage, sur plusieurs millésimes, à partir des même caves, nous permet de juger des qualités aromatiques de chacun de ces 2 cépages.
Les arômes sont mesurés:
(1) Par chromatographie en phase gazeuse (C.P.G.) des principaux alcools terpéniques : linalol, nérol, géraniol.
(2) A l’analyse sensorielle par une note sur la qualité d’ensemble.

Enological and nutraceutical potential of some grape varieties tolerant to downy mildew and powdery mildew

AIM: Since 2012 the Veneto Region regulation (north-east Italy) allowed wine production using 20 hybrid grapevine varieties selected for their high tolerance to downy mildew and powdery mildew. Characterized by vigour, high grape productivity and low pesticide use, these varieties are suitable to develop sustainable viticulture in mountain areas located at medium altitudes.

Critical investigation on additions to improve the sensory characteristics of dealcoholized wine

The demand for dealcoholized wine has been progressively increasing in recent years. Moreover, the attention for such products is probably increasing even more. Due to that increasing demand and market awareness the legal authorities are about changing rules for that products. Also, at OIV level, these products are being intensively discussed for certain time. The production of dealcoholized wine bases on wine as initial product. This wine is then reduced by physical methods to an alcohol content of less than 0.5% vol., or in other words, to less than 4g/l of alcohol. There are various technologies are possible for producing dealcoholized wine (Schmitt and Christmann 2019).

Foliar application of urea improved the nitrogen composition of Chenin grapes

The nitrogen composition of the grapes directly affects the developments of alcoholic fermentation and influences the final aromatic composition of the wines. The aim of this study was to determine the effect and efficiency of foliar applications of urea on the nitrogen composition of grapes. This study was carried out during 2023 vintage and in the Chenin vineyard located in Estacion Experimental Mendoza (Argentina). Three urea concentrations 3, 6 and 9 Kg N/ha (C1, C2, and C3, respectively) and control (T) were applied in this vineyard at veraison.
