Étude intégrée et allégée des terroirs viticoles en Anjou: caractérisation et zonage de l’unité terroir de base, en relation avec une enquête parcellaire

Irrigation management is a critical aspect in grapevine cultivation to regularize grape production and quality in areas of clear water limitation.

Soil plays an important role in wine quality, especially its water holding capacity because it affects the balance between vigour and grape yield. The aim of this work was to study the influence of different soil types on the must quality in a vineyard at DO Ca Rioja

Les préoccupations actuelles autour des paysages viticoles vont au-delà des clichés promotionnels développés par les stratégies marketing. En effet, les paysages sont aujourd’hui au cœur d’une demande sociale croissante qui se traduit par différentes lois (la loi paysage de 1993, le paysage reconnu comme patrimoine commun de la nation par la loi n°95-101, la création du Conseil national du paysage par arrêté du 8/12/2000).

Recent regulations concerning alcoholic beverages have prompted producers to revise their product labels to incorporate nutritional information. In this context, qr codes containing such information, known as e-labels, are now being employed on wine labels for the first time.

With its Farm-to-Fork Strategy, which is a part of the European Green Deal, the European Union aims at reducing the amount of pesticides used in agriculture by 50% until 2030. As viticulture uses around 70% of the fungicides in the EU, there is substantial pressure on winemakers to reduce their pesticide input. On top of the political goal, winegrowers face increased pressure from the public demanding a more sustainable production of wine.
