Bilan hydrique: une méthode proposée pour l’évaluation des réserves hydriques dans le zonage viticole

This work aimed at investigating red wine olfactory–oral cross-modal interactions, and at testing their impact on the correlations between sensory and chemical variables. Seventy-four Italian red whole wines (WWs) from 10 varieties, and corresponding deodorized wines (DWs), were evaluated by sensory descriptive assessment.

Aim: Pests have a high impact on yield and grape quality in viticulture. An objective and rapid detection of pests under field conditions is needed. New sensing technologies and artificial intelligence could be used for pests detection in digital viticulture. The aim of this work was to apply computer vision and deep learning techniques for automatic detection of spider mite symptoms in grapevine under field conditions. 

During a three-year study the vineyards of the wine-growing region Carnuntum have been investigated for their terroir characteristics (climate, soil, rocks) and major viticulture functions. As an outcome of the study, various thematic layers and geodata analyses describe the geo-environmental properties and variability of the wine growing region and delimit homogenous multilayer mapping units by using a Geographic Information System.

Tangible variation of sensory characteristics is often perceived in wine aged in similar barrels. This variation is mostly explained by differences in the wood chemical composition, and in the production of the barrels. Despite these facts, the literature concerning barrel-to-barrel variation and its effect on wine sensory and chemical characteristics is very scarce [1]. In this study, the barrel-to-barrel variation in barrel-aged wines was examined in respect of the most important phenolic compounds of oenological interest and chromatic characteristics, considering both the effects of the (individual) barrel and cooperage. A red wine was aged in 49 new medium-toasted oak (Quercus petraea) barrels, from four cooperages, for 12 months

L’AOC Grignolino d’Asti (20000 hl environ de production) est un vin de la province de Asti, produit avec le raisin rouge du cépage de même nom originaire du Piémont (Nord-Ouest d’Italie).
