Evoluzione stagionale delle temperature ed andamento della maturazione nel vitigno Aglianico: risultati di un quadriennio di osservazioni in Campania

The important grape variety Welschriesling for Austrian and Southeast European viticulture has been selectively bred over the years for improving some quantitative traits. Collected genotypes as well as the local clones were examined from agricultural, analytical, sensory, and genetic perspectives.

Se justifica la utilización de los mapas de suelos detallados y muy detallados como instrumento fundamental en los estudios de microzonificación.

In 2020, 12% of all bottled German wines were aromatized, which may increase further due to rising popularity of dealcoholized wines. As sealing polymers of a bottling line absorb aroma compounds and may release them into regular wines in the next filling¹, this unintentional carry-over bears the risk to violate the legal ban of any aromatization of regular wine. However, following EU legislation, German food control authorities accept a technical unavoidable transfer of aroma compounds, if this is of no sensory significance.

The selection of ancient grapevine varieties aims to achieve genetic gains in several important traits that can make the variety more interesting for the objectives of the producers. Traditionally, yield and quality traits of the must have been considered for selection, but many others can be taken into account. Linear mixed models are fitted to the data to predict the empirical best linear unbiased predictors (EBLUPs) of genotypic effects for each evaluated trait, which will be the basis for selection.

Grape ripening is a process driven by the interactions between grapevine genotypes and environmental factors. Grape composition is largely responsible for the production
