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.

L’effet du climat viticole sur la typicité des vins rouges: caractérisation au niveau des régions viticoles Ibéro-Américaines

Il n’existe presque pas d’études qui caractérisent l’effet du climat viticole sur la typicité des vins en considérant les différents types de climats à l’échelle mondiale. Cette étude fait partie d’un projet CYTED de zonage vitivinicole. L’objectif a été de caractériser l’effet du climat viticole sur la typicité des vins sur une macro région viticole du monde.

Effects of fast dehydration at low temperature and relative humidity on the phenolic composition of Nebbiolo grapes

Grape postharvest dehydration is a widely used technique for the special wines production, where genetic features, ripeness degree and environmental factors strongly influence the metabolic processes [1].

Heat waves and drought stress impact grapevine growth and physiology

Recurring heat and drought episodes during the growing season can produce adverse impacts on grape production in many wine regions around the world.

Study of cross-modal interactions through sensory and chemical characteristics of italian red wines

This work aimed at investigating red wine olfactory–oral cross-modal interactions, and at testing their impact on the correlations between sensory and chemical variables. Seventy-four Italian red whole wines (WWs) from 10 varieties, and corresponding deodorized wines (DWs), were evaluated by sensory descriptive assessment.

Implications of herbicide, cultivation or cover crop under-vine soil management on the belowground microbiote

Soil management through cover crops in the lines of the vineyards is a common practice in viticulture, since it improves the characteristics of the soil. It has been shown that the cover crops can influence the cycle of nutrients, promote infiltration, decrease erosion, and enhance the soil microbiota biodiversity improving the grapevines. However, the area under the vines tends to be left bare by applying herbicides or tillage to avoid competition with the crop in hot climates. The use of cover crops under the vines might be a plausible alternative to the use of herbicides or cultivation, improving grapevine quality and soil characteristics. The aim of this research was to study the implications of different management of the soil under the vines (herbicide, cultivation or cover crops) on grapevine growth, water and nutritional status and belowground microbial communities.
