Productivity, quality, and thermal needs of the Piedirosso vine: four years of observations

Abstract

The effects of temperature on cv Piedirosso, indigenous of the Campania region (South of Italy), were tested in order to study its possible influence on grapevine and to discover how to optimize the qualitative expression of the cultivar. Relationships between evolution of the main must components, berry weight, and heat requirement of the cv Piedirosso were studied. The cv Piedirosso showed itself to be suitable to the area tested. We evidenced a reasonable agreement of the model of Amerine and Winkler’s estimation as to the thermal needs of cv Piedirosso. The heat requirement of the cultivar was determined in 1750-1850 degrees/day (DD) to obtain a sugar content of 21-22 °Brix, a pH of 3.10-3.20 and a titratable acidity of 8-9 g/l; to obtain a higher sugar content of musts (23-24 °Brix, pH of 3.2-3.3, titratable acidity of 8-9 g/l) the thermal needs is 1800-1900 DD.

Techniques to study graft union formation in grapevine 

Grapevines are grown grafting in most viticultural regions. Grapevine rootstocks are either hybrids or pure species of different American Vitis spp. (particularly V. berlandieri, V. rupestris and V. riparia), which are primarily used to provide root resistance to the insect pest Phylloxera. In addition to Phylloxera resistance, ideally grapevine rootstocks should be resistant to other soil borne pathogens and adapted to abiotic stress conditions. New rootstocks have the potential to adapt agriculture to climate change without changing the characteristics of the harvested product. However, high grafting success rates are an essential prerequisite.

Characterization of varieties named ‘Caiño’ cultivated from Northwest of Spain

The ‘Caiño’ cultivar was cultivated in Galicia (Northwestern Spain) before the invasion of grape phylloxera. Genetic diversity from this cultivar have been described and considered as originating in Galicia, ‘Caiño Tinto’, ‘Caiño Bravo’, ‘Caiño Redondo’, ‘Caiño Longo’ and ‘Caiño Blanco’.

An infrared laser sensor to characterize the gaseous headspace of champagne glasses under static and swirling conditions

Right after the pouring of champagne in a glass, thousands of rising and bursting bubbles convey gas-phase CO2 and volatile organic compounds in the headspace above the champagne surface, thus progressively modifying the gaseous chemical space perceived by the consumer [1]
