Determinazione della frazione aromatica dei vini, quale strumento per-la valorizzazione del territorio viticolo

Abstract

[English version below]

La caratterizzazione della frazione volatile aromatica dei vini attraverso l’analisi quali­quantitativa dei diversi composti, ha portato corne primo risultato la netta differenziazione delle annate in prova.
Dalla relazione tra analisi sensoriale e analisi chimica, è poi risultato che, per il vino Soave, esteri etilici e acetati sono i composti organoletticamente più importanti e responsabili del-l’aroma fruttato floreale. Alcoli e acidi sono apparsi invece meno utili e sicuri nella caratte­rizzazione varietale e ambientale. E’ quindi importante per ogni vino conoscere i composti aromatici tipici e i loro responsabili analitici, sulla base poi della quantificazione di questi ultimi sarà possibile una caratterizzazione ambientale.

The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the volatile aromatic components of wine has produced, as a first result, a net differentiation of the years being tested.
From the correlation between sensory and chemical analysis we have also found , for Soave wine, that acetates and esters are the most important sensory components; they are responsable for the fruit and floral aromas of wine.
However, alcohols and acids have shown to be less useful in varietal and environmental characterization. It is therefore very important to know, for each wine, the typical aromatic compounds and their chemical composition, and based on their quantification it is possible to value the environment.

Switch genes as a key to understand the grapevine ripening disorder berry Shrivel?

The ripening of grapevine berries encompasses complex morphological and physiological processes, especially at veraison. Berry shrivel (BS) is a ripening physiological disorder affecting grape berries with visible symptoms appearing short after veraison. The main symptoms of BS are a strong reduction in sugar accumulation, inhibited anthocyanin biosynthesis and high pH values. The most popular red grape cultivar in Austria “Blauer Zweigelt” (Vitis vinifera L.) is specifically prone to develop the BS ripening disorder and up to date a no specific cause or causes could be identified. Recently omics approaches have identified and characterized key processes during grapevine ripening. Among them a small subset of genes, called SWITCH, have been described as markers for the onset of the ripening process in fruits.

Effect of quercus alba oak barrels from different forest on the volatile composition of Tempranillo wines

The species and origin used for red wine oak aging determines the physiological composition of the wood and thus the finished wines. In America, oak is grown primarily

Making sense of a sense of place: precision viticulture approaches to the analysis of terroir at different scales

Agriculture, natural resource management and the production and sale of products such as wine are increasingly data-driven activities. Thus, the use of remote and proximal crop and soil sensors to aid management decisions is becoming commonplace and ‘Agtech’ is proliferating commercially; mapping, underpinned by geographical information systems and complex methods of spatial analysis, is widely used…

Une méthode d’étude synthétique du paysage

a) wine, a qualitative and user-friendly product, favors a visual support, even for a scientific study because it refers to the image of the terroir, in particular by its visible landscape. b) the vineyard landscape, which is fairly open by definition, favors this type of approach. c) the framework of the Terroir Test conducted by the URVV (INRA – Angers) comprises 15 micro-plots of 100 strains, and requires at this scale precise surveys of the environment, hence systematic shots, of the center of the plot, over 360°, at 50 mm intervals, at 1.70 m from the ground and horizontally.

Terroir effects on the response of Tempranillo grapevines to irrigation in four locations of Spain: grape and must composition

This work discusses the effects of soil and weather conditions on the grape composition of cv. Tempranillo in four different locations of Spain, during the 2008-2011 seasons.
