Zonificación climática de las D.O. Rueda y Toro y vinos de la tierra de medina del campo

Abstract

La producción vitícola es el resultado de una serie de factores influyentes (variedad, patron) dentro de un medio ecológico­-climatico-edafico, en el que se interactua por medio de técnicas de cultivo adecuadas.
En la caracterización climática del viñedo estan presentes tanto los elementos tradicionales (temperatura, precipitación, insolación, etc.) así como los factores geográficos (latitud y longitud, altitud, orientación, exposición, proximidad a masas de agua, etc).
Para ver la influencia sobre el vinedo, en las distintas fases de su ciclo vegetativo, se cuantifican y se analizan los parametros mas relevantes en las D.O. Rueda y Toro, Tierra de Vinos.
Las caracteristicas climáticas más destacables de la región pueden ser resumidas (Garcia Femandez, 1986) como sigue:
– clima continental determinado por los efectos de encajamiento y aislamiento definidos por las cadenas montañosas que la rodean.
– rigurosos ( crudos) y largos inviemos: bajas temperaturas medias y generalización de los val ores negativos de las temperaturas medias de las minimas del mes de enero, minimas absolutas acusadamente bajas y largo periodo invernal.
– veranos cortos, relativamente suaves y con fuertes oscilaciones térmicas, con periodos estivales fríos y otros de calor riguroso.
– contrastes acusados en la cuantía y bajos indices de precipitaciones.
– aridez estival sensible y contrastada: acusada aridez estival, complejidad de la precipitación estival, duración de la aridez estival.
– régimen de precipitaciones con contrastes y matices con predominio de la de invierno y primavera.

Use of chitosan as a secondary antioxidant in juices and wines

Chitosan is a polysaccharide produced from the deacetylation of chitin extracted from crustaceous and fungi. In winemaking chitosan is mainly used in the clarification of grape juice and wine, stabilization of white wines, removal of metals and to prevent wine spoilage by undesired microorganisms. The addition of chitosan to model wine systems was able to retard browning, reduce levels of metallic ions (Fe and Cu) and to protect varietal thiols due to its antiradical activity1. The present experiment was planned in order to evaluate the use of chitosan as a secondary antioxidant at three different stages of Sauvignon blanc fermentation and winemaking. Sauvignon blanc juices from three different locations were obtained at a commercial winery in Marlborough, New Zealand. One lots of grapes was collected from a receival bin and pressed into juice with a water-bag press, and a further juice sample was collected from a commercial pressing operation. Chitosan (1 g/L, low molecular weight, 75 – 85% deacetylated) was added to the juice after pressing, after cold settling, after fermentation, or at all these stages. Controls without any chitosan additions were also prepared.

Climate variability and its effects in the Penedès vineyard region (NE Spain)

This study present a detailed analysis of the rainfall and temperature changes in the Penedès region in the period 1995/ 96 – 2008/09, in comparison with the trends observed during the last 50 years, and its implications on phenology and yield.

Measuring elemental sulfur in grape juice in relation to varietal thiol formation in Sauvignon blanc wines.

Aim: Sauvignon blanc displays a range of styles that can include prominent tropical and passionfruit aromas. Both sensory evaluation and chemical analysis have confirmed the above-average presence of ‘varietal thiols’ in the Sauvignon blanc wines from Marlborough, New Zealand.

Enological and nutraceutical potential of some grape varieties tolerant to downy mildew and powdery mildew

AIM: Since 2012 the Veneto Region regulation (north-east Italy) allowed wine production using 20 hybrid grapevine varieties selected for their high tolerance to downy mildew and powdery mildew. Characterized by vigour, high grape productivity and low pesticide use, these varieties are suitable to develop sustainable viticulture in mountain areas located at medium altitudes.

Impact of press fractioning on current and phenolic compositions of Pinot noir and Pinot meunier wines

In the Champagne’s region, a complete press cycle is a series of pressure increases (squeezes) and decreases (returns). After alcoholic fermentation, the two wines (the “cuvee” and the “tailles”) obtained from grape juice fractions exhibit strong differences for numerous characteristics. Nevertheless, there is no study of the impact of the press cycle, followed after each pressure increase (22-28 steps), on wine colour, current analyses and phenolic composition. So, the aim of this study (vintage 2020) was to investigate the composition changes of Pinot noir and Pinot meunier wines, produced from 22-28 grape juices isolated for each complete pressing cycle.
