Conduite en Lys: résultats pendant la formation du système avec le cépage Loureiro dans la région des “Vinhos Verdes”

Abstract

[English version below]

Dans la région des “Vinhos Verdes” les études sur les systèmes de conduite de la vigne sont très importantes et beaucoup de travaux ont été faits pendant les dernières années. Cet essai, avec la nouvelle conduite Lys, a été installé en 1996 dans la Station Vitivinicole Amândio Galhano (EVAG) située au nord-ouest du Portugal. Les résultats presentés se rapportent dans les deux premiéres années de formation du système Lys: 1998 et 1999.
On étudie huit clones du cépage Loureiro gréffés sur deux porte-greffes: 101-14 et 1103P. La densité de plantation est de 3.333 ceps par hectare (3,0 m x 1,0 m). Deux niveaux de charge ont été appliqués: C1 = 9.999 vs C2 = 19.998 bourgeons/ha en 1998 et C1 = 33.330 vs C2 = 46.662 bourgeons/ha en 1999.
En ce qui concerne la conduite des jeunes souches, il est très important le choix des unités permanentes (bras et épaules) pendant le développement végétatif, en sélectionnant les sarments les plus vigoureux et les plus bien placés.
Le plus bas niveau de charge en 1998 (C1 = 9.999) fut insuffisant en provoquant des sarments trop vigoureux et conséquemment un pourcentage élevé de sarments cassés, tandis que, le plus haut niveau de charge en 1999 (C2= 46.662) a provoqué des rendements significativement plus élevés mais accompagnés de pertes de qualité du moût. Le système Lys a revélé précocement un élevé potentiel de rendement et qualité (2-3 ans). D’ autre part, le porte-greffe 101-14 dans ce cépage et dans ce système a été au-dessus du porte-greffe 1103P soit au niveau du rendement soit au niveau de la qualité.

In the ‘Vinhos Verdes’ region the studies about vine training systems are very importants and many works were made in the last years. This research, with the new system Lys, was installated in 1996 at the ‘Amândio Galhano Viticulture Station’ in the north-west of Portugal. The results were carried out in the formation system period: 1998-1999.
We are studing eight clones of Loureiro grapevine grefted onto two rootstocks varieties: 101-14 and 1103P. The plants are arranged according to the rectangular plan of 3,0 m x 1,0 m (3.333 plants/ha) and the bud loads were: C1 = 9.999 vs C2 = 19.998 buds/ha in 1998 and C1 = 33.330 vs C2 = 46.662 buds/ha in 1999.
In the formation period, it is very important the choice of the permanent unities during the vegetal development, making a selection about the most vigorous and the best placed shoots.
The lowest bud load in 1998 (C1=9 999) was insufficient making a very vigorous shoots and consecutively many shoots broken by the wind; on the other hand, the highest bud load in 1999 (C2 = 46 662) showed significantly higher yields and lower must weights. Also, the rootstock variety 101-14 was better than 1 103P variety in the yield and quality levels. The training system Lys showed un early produce and quality potential.

Identification, quantification and organoleptic impact of « dried fruit » molecular markers in Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and in red wines

The aromas found in young Bordeaux red wines made with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon suggest a complex mixture of aromas of fresh red fruits such as cherry or blackberry for Merlot, and strawberry or blackcurrant for Cabernet Sauvignon. The aromas of these wines are closely linked with the maturity of the grapes. The climate change that has occurred during the last decade in Bordeaux has induced changes in the ripening conditions of grape berries. It is now widely admitted that over-ripening of the berries during hot and dry summers results in the development of characteristic flavors reminiscent of cooked fruits (fig, prune). The presence of these overriding odors found in both musts and young wines affects the quality and subtlety of the wine flavor and may shorten its shelf life.

Influence of must fining on wine pinking: relationship between electrochemical and colorimetric measurements and pinking attitude of wine

“Pinking” is a term used to define an abnormal pink coloration assumed by white wines in certain cases. Despite the are many hypotheses about the causes of this phenomenon, pinking still represents an issue for the wine industry. In the absence of reliable preventive strategies, wineries often rely on treatments such as charcoal fining, which is also negatively impacting wine aroma. This study aims at evaluating the potential of different fining agents based on animal or vegetal proteins to prevent wine pinking when applied at the level of must clarification. The work was carried out on Lugana wines, which is well-recognised as sensible to pinking problems. METHODS: Two experimental Lugana musts were obtained by applying a standard winemaking protocol and were then clarified with different commercial preparations based on vegetal proteins or casein, alone or in combination with PVPP. A control only using pectolytic enzyme was also prepared. Finings were carried out at 4°C for 16h, and the clear must (200 NTU) was then fermented in controlled conditions.

Using 1H-NMR combined with chemometrics to discriminate the effect of different cuts and toasting of woods used for grape pomace distillate ageing

The purpose of this research study is to consider new solutions for distillate ageing, in alternative to conventional oak chips or barrels in particular sliced wood and peeled wood were compared to oak cubes, normally employed during both wine and distillate ageing.
