Déterminisme de l’effet terroir: influence de la surface foliaire primaire de la vigne en début de cycle sur le potentiel vendange

Abstract

ln the Mid-Loire Valley, in France, for the fast twenty years a network of experimental plots has been used to analyse the terroir effect on the behaviour of the Cabernet franc variety of grape. The study of the primary leaf area (SFI) for several vintages shows that it differs greatly from one terroir to another. The SF1 can be characterized by the precocity of its setting in relation with bud-break earliness, and the effective area in place at flowering time. At this stage, differences between precocious and late terroirs can be more then 100%. The further evolution depends on the vigour originated by the terroir, which is main/y related to its water supply capacity. The type of evolution and the consequences on the composition of the berries can be appraised through the kinetics of the SF1 growth during the pre-flowering period. This analysis of a differentiation in the setting of the primary leaf area in relation with the terroir indicates that the construction of quality may begin very soon, at the early stages of the grapevine cycle. A model of physiological pathways of the ripening process is proposed, for the Northern vineyards. lt takes into account the importance of the “precocity” factor during the first part of the cycle, and the “water supply” during the second part.

The influence of culture medium on the dynamics of fermentation of wine yeasts

Wine yeast strains Saccharomyces ellipsoideus have important applications in food industry and in this regard is sought isolation as pure cultures and selecting those strains, which in laboratory investigations which have great biotechnological properties This study was intended as the ratio of live cells and autolysates cells also the influence of culture medium on this report. Yeasts selected for this study were isolated from industrial strains of indigenous grape varieties, namely: Feteasca Royal (FR) Feteasca White (FA), black Feteasca (FN), Romanian Tamaioasa (TR), Babeasca Black (BN) and Cotnari Grasa (GC).

Preliminary study of extraction of polysaccharides from pomace by high powered ultrasonic combined with enzymes

Red grape pomace can be an important source of polysaccharides, but currently they are little studied and even less with viable and environmental extraction processes (green extraction). These green techniques must be able to break the cell wall so that the compounds contained in the cells, including polysaccharides, are released and can have a great influence on extraction yields, the chemical structure of polysaccharides and applications in wines. Amongst the emerging green techniques most applied to the extraction of bioactive compounds, such as polysaccharides, high-power ultrasound (US) and enzyme-assisted extraction stand out.

Impact of chitosan treatment on the physico-chemical features of a sangiovese red wine

Chitosan is gaining interest in red winemaking thanks to its ability to inhibit the development of Brettanomyces spp. yeast, or other undesired wine microbial threats. However, little is known about potential side-effects of its addition on the physico-chemical parameters of red wines.
