Vinos de tea en la isla de la Palma

Abstract

En el Norte de la Isla de La Palma (Islas Canarias), se cultivan un conjunto de varietales constituidos principalmente por Negramoll, Listán blanco, Prieto, Albillo y Muñeco. La mayor parte de estos cultivares se encuentran aquí en mayor proporción que en cualquier otra zona de Canarias, y situados en cotas altas entre los 800 y los 1500 metros de altitud, dando lugar a un tipo de vino diferente, que además, en muchos casos, es elaborado en contacto con madera de tea, corazón del “Pinus canariensis”. La mezcla de estas variedades y el contacto con los envases de tea les confiere un gusto particular que recuerda a los vinos de resina Griegos. En el presente trabajo se ha llevado a cabo un estudio de la comarca y una primera caracterización química y sensorial de estos vinos. Algunos de estos varietales, poco extendidos en el resto de Canarias, son susceptibles de ser estudiados con mayor amplitud, dada la potencialidad que han presentado al ser elaborados por separado, tanto para vinos blancos como para vinos tintos.

Genetic causes of SO2 consumption in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

SO2 is used during winemaking for its anti-oxidative and anti-microbial properties. A high SO2 concentration in the wine has negative impacts by hiding wine aromas and delaying malolactic fermentation.

Soils, climate and vine management: their influence on Marlborough Sauvignon blanc wine style

Sauvignon blanc was first planted in Marlborough, New Zealand in the mid-1970s. Since that time, Marlborough has gained an international reputation by producing the definitive wine style of that grape variety.

Copper contamination in vineyard soils of Bordeaux: spatial risk assessment for the replanting of vines and crops

Copper (Cu) is widely and historically used in viticulture as a fungicide against mildew. Cu has a strong affinity for soil organic matter and accumulates in topsoil horizons. Thus, Cu may negatively affect soil organisms and plants, consequently reducing soil fertility and productivity. The Bordeaux vineyards have the largest vineyard surfaces (26%) within French controlled appellation and a great proportion of French wine production (around 5 million hl per year). Considering the local context of vineyard surfaces decreasing (vine uprooting) and possible new crop plantation, the issue of Cu potential toxicity rises. Therefore, the aims of this work are firstly to evaluate the Cu contamination in vineyard soils of Bordeaux, secondly to produce a risk assessment map for new vine or crop plantation. We used soil analyses from several local studies to build a database with 4496 soil horizon samples. The database was enhanced by means of pedotransfer functions in order to estimate the bioaccessible (EDTA-extractable) Cu in soils of samples without measurements. From this database, 1797 georeferenced samples with CuEDTA concentrations in the topsoil (0-50 cm depth) were used for kriging interpolation in order to produce the spatial distribution map of CuEDTA in vineyard soils. Then, the spatial distribution of Cu was crossed with vine uprooting surfaces and municipality boundaries. CuEDTAconcentrations ranged from 0.52 to 459 mg/kg and showed clear anomalies. Our results from spatial analysis showed that almost 50% of vineyard soil surfaces have CuEDTA concentrations higher than 30 mg/kg (moderate risk for new plantation) and 20% with concentrations higher than 50 mg/kg (high risk for new plantation). A decision-support map based on municipalities was realised to provide a simple tool to stakeholders concerned by land use management.
