Caracterización sensorial preliminar de los vinos tintos de la Isla de Tenerife (Islas Canarias, España)

Abstract

En la isla de Tenerife (Islas Canarias, Espafia) existen cinco Denominaciones de Origen (D.O.) con una superficie inscrita aproximada de 5.000 hectareas. Actualmente existen 94 bodegas inscritas en las diferentes D.O., y de estas, 82 elaboran vino tinto. El 65% de las bodegas que elaboran vino tinto estan situadas en la vertiente norte de la isla sobre tres D.O.: Valle de la Orotava, Tacoronte-Acentejo e Ycoden-Daute-Isora. La variedad de uva mayoritaria que se utiliza en la elaboracion de estos vinos es Listan negro (Vitis vinifera L.). La variabilidad fisica-quimica que presentan estos vinos es muy alta debido a la diferencia existente en las condiciones de suelo y de clima de cada una de las diferentes D.O., y también entre las diversas parcelas de cada D.O. Rasta la fecha no se ha establecido un perfil sensorial de los vinos tintos que permita una mejor caracterizacion de las diferentes D.O., asi como, un mejor conocimiento del comportamiento de la variedad Listan negro en las diferentes condiciones de cultivo. Las caracteristicas sensoriales de los vinos han sido estudiadas a través de un analisis descriptivo cuantitativo (A.D.C.) (9). Esta técnica sensorial ha sido utilizada para caracterizar variedades de uva tinta como Pinot noir (3, 6), Cabernet Sauvignon (4, 7), Shiraz (1), Zinfandel (5). En este trabajo presentamos los resultados del primer afio de estudio.

The role of molecular ecophysiology in terroir expression

Terroir is a complex concept which associates soil, climate, grape variety and cultural practices that include the training system and oenological techniques. It is a type of social construction with man at its centre. The typicality of a wine is also a social construction which is the result of an agreement among specialists vis à vis a given quality of the wine whose references are the wine’s origins (e.g. terroir) and taste.

Grapes aminoacidic profile: impact of abiotic factors in a climate change scenario

Amino acids play a crucial role in determining grape and wine quality [1]. Recently, research has suggested their metabolism is key to plant abiotic stress tolerance [2]. Therefore, the study of amino acid accumulation in grape berries and its response to environmental factors is of both scientific and economic importance.

Developing a multi-hazard risk index-based insurance for viticulture under climate change

Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of environmental hazards (e.g., prolonged drought), and even non-extreme climate events (e.g., a period of slightly warmer temperatures) can lead to extreme impacts when they occur simultaneously with other (non-extreme) events.

Exogenous dsRNA applications to identify novel candidate susceptibility genes to downy mildew

One of the major threats to viticulture is represented by fungal pathogens. Plasmopara viticola, an oomycete causing grapevine downy mildew, is one of the principal causes of grape production losses. The most efficient management strategies are represented by a combination of agronomical practices, fungicides’ applications, and use of resistant varieties. Plant resistance is conferred by the presence of resistance (R) genes. Opposed to them, susceptibility (S) genes are encoded by plants and exploited by pathogens to promote infection. Loss or mutation of S genes can limit the ability of pathogens to infect the host. By exploiting post-transcriptional gene silencing, known as RNA intereference (RNAi), it is possible to knock-down the expression of S genes, promoting plant resistance.
