Estudio de la fertilidad de los suelos para la zonificación vitícola de la D.O. MONTILLA-MORILES

The concept of Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) is based on the existence of a link between the characteristics of the terroir and the quality and typicality of the production (DELAS, 2000). If for a long time, this link only appeared as the fruit of empiricism, the research undertaken recently has made it possible to scientifically establish the complex relationships between the functioning of natural environments and the ability to produce quality.

In 2022, the area cultivated with grapes in Brazil counted 75 thousand ha. About 1/2 of the grape production is located in rio grande do sul state, in South Brazil. Nonetheless, the northeast region, especially the Sao Francisco River Valley (SFRV), is increasing its area and production, mainly pushed by table grapes. The states of bahia and pernambuco already respond for circa 1/3 of brazilian grape production.

Samples from 3 wine types were treated with a cationic exchange resin (7 lots) and stored for 8 years (47 samples). Forty-seven parameters were determined, including (1) important substrates with impact in white wine oxidation and (2) markers of oxidation. From group 1, sugars, elements, phenolic compounds, α-dicarbonyls and SO2 and from group 2, browning (A420), acetaldehyde, alkanals, furanic compounds were quantified.

The identification and management of intra-vineyard variability are key to precision viticulture, and sensors have been proven to be highly efficient tools for detecting these variations.

La D.O. Ribeira Sacra (Galicia, N.O. de España) se distribuye a lo largo de las riberas de los ríos Miño y Sil. Su característica mas destacada son las fuertes pendientes. Desde 1990 se estudia el estado
