Efectos del deshojado y de su combinación con el aclareo de Racimos en los componentes básicos de la producción y del Mosto, sobre cv. Tempranillo en la D.O. Ribera del Duero

Abstract

[English version below]

Las técnicas de manejo del canopy de la vid pueden favorecer la adaptación de los sistemas de conducción a diversas condiciones de cultivo para obtener uva de calidad. Con este objetivo se desarrolló a lo largo de 3 años un ensayo en secano con la variedad Tempranillo conducida en espaldera, en la región vitivinícola de Denominación de Origen Ribera del Duero (España).
Se estudiaron los efectos del deshojado basal (aplicado en la fase de maduración, una vez pasado el envero), suprimiendo unas 4 hojas de la base de los pámpanos, y de su combinación con el aclareo de racimos (suprimiendo el 35 % de los racimos existentes en la cepa en el momento del envero) en el rendimiento, en el desarrollo vegetativo y en la composición del mosto.
Se ha observado que la combinación del aclareo con el deshojado redujo el rendimiento final en uva sólo un 20%, debido a la compensación producida por el aumento del peso de la baya. Dicho tratamiento presentó una tendencia a incrementar ligeramente el peso de madera de poda.
La concentración de azúcares en el mosto puede verse beneficiada por el deshojado basal, pero su combinación con el aclareo de racimos mostró un efecto muy claro a aumentar el grado alcohólico probable del mosto. La acidez total puede ser reducida por el deshojado, pero sobre todo cuando se practica junto con el aclareo de racimos.
En general, los efectos del aclareo de racimos en el envero combinado con el deshojado favorecen la evolución de la maduración, a costa de una reducción del rendimiento en uva, mientras que los efectos del deshojado simple en la variedad Tempranillo, a través de una reducción de los ácidos, dependen de las condiciones ambientales anuales en zonas como la D.O. Ribera del Duero.

The techniques of grapevine canopy management can help the training systems to become adapted to different growth conditions in order to improve the quality of the grapes. Focused on this objective, a trial was carried out over 3 years in the A.O. Ribera del Duero with the variety Tempranillo grown under non-irrigation conditions and trained as a vertical trellis system.
We have studied the effects of the basal leaf removal (in the ripening period, after veraison), taking out 4 leaves from the base of shoots, and of its combination with the cluster thinning (removing 35 %of vine clusters at veraison) in yield, vegetative development and must composition.
It was observed that the combination of cluster thinning and leaf removal reduced the final yield by only 20 %, due to the compensation caused by the increase of berry weight. This treatment showed a tendency to lightly increase the pruning weight.
Sugar concentration can be increased by the basal leaf removal, but the combination with the cluster thinning exhibited a clear effect to increase the probable alcoholic degree. Total acidity can be reduced by leaf removal, but basically in combination with cluster thinning.

Effects of a new vacuum evaporation method on chemical and sensory properties of must and wine

A new process for vacuum evaporation was developed where evaporation takes place near the inner surface of a vortex produced by a rotor submerged in the liquid. Contrary to the state of the art the Vortex rotor process does not need a vacuum vessel but the rotating liquid creates a geometrically stable low pressure void surrounded by a vortex stabilized by the equilibrium between centrifugal forces and the pressure difference. First tests with water and sugar solutions at concentrations similar to grape must were conducted to verify the theoretical predictions, test the performance under different conditions and study the effect of various process parameters (Rösti et al 2015).

FUNGAL DIVERSITY AND DYNAMICS IN CHAMPAGNE VINEYARDS: FROM VINE TO WINE

Champagne is a well-known wine region in Northern France with distinct terroirs and three main grape varieties. As for any vineyard, wine quality is highly linked to the microbiological characteristics of the raw materials. However, Champagne grape microbiota, especially its fungal component, has yet to be fully characterized. Our study focused on describing this mycobiota, from vine to small scale model wine, for the two main Champagne grape varieties, Pinot Noir and Meunier, using complementary cultural and omics approaches.

Exploring the mechanisms of grapevine single berry development and ripening

The strategy of single berry phenotyping is a recently rediscovered research tool that has gained great attention. The latest studies have indicated that previous physiological models based on pooling asynchronous populations of berries provided biased or blurred information on berry development key players. The possibility of monitoring and sampling single synchronized berries to study their development sequentially has opened new lines of research aimed at unraveling the genes that regulate grapevine fruit development. This study aimed to decipher the gene pathways responsible for the activation/deactivation of physiological processes involved in the green phase of growth, the onset of ripening, and the second growth phase.

Physiological and growth reaction of Shiraz/101-14 Mgt to row orientation and soil water status

Advanced knowledge on grapevine row orientation is required to improve establishment, management and outcomes of vineyards on terroirs with different environmental conditions (climate, soil, topography) and in view of a future change to more extreme climatic conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the combined effect of row orientation, plant water status and ripeness level on the physiological and viticultural reaction of Shiraz/101-14 Mgt.

Influence of dipping pretreatments in drying of ‘Pedro Ximenez’ grapes in chamber at controlled temperature

The influence of dipping pretreatments on drying of ‘Pedro Ximenez’ grapes, destined to the elaboration of sweet wines, in chamber at controlled temperature, has been studied. Changes in color and phenolic composition of raisins produced were observed during the process of raisining.
