Prove preliminari dl caratterizzazione del vino gutturnio dei colli piacentini

Abstract

The “GuIturnio dei Colli Piacentini” V.Q.PR.D. results from the vinification of Barbera (55-70%) and Bonarda (30-40%) cultivars, grown in the hilly area of the Piacenza district, identified by the DM 31-07-93 art. 3.
The present work concerns the “zonation” of this area, constituted by 3 valleys Tidone (A), Nure (B) and Arda (C ). 11 homogeneous subzones (5 in A, 2 in B and 4 in C) have been identified studying the environmental and viticultural characteristics.
Some 1996 wines coming from each subzone were characterized using an unstructured card with sensory descriptors properly chosen for the Gutturnio wines. The sensory evaluation was carried out by a suitable trained panel of assessors. The work also reports a first classification of the same wines with the ‘Electronic nose ‘system.
This instrumental apparatus, based on an array of non-selective chemical sensors and a multicomponent data analysis, is able to recognize, distinguish and classify the odors.

Wine tourism as a catalyst for sustainable competitive advantage: unraveling the role of winery image and reputation

This study examines the impact of wine tourism development on the sustainable competitive advantage of Spanish wineries, while also exploring the mediating roles of winery image and winery reputation in this relationship.

Colloids in red wines: new insights from recent research

Despite their significant impact on wine quality and stability, colloids in red wine remain relatively under-researched. A series of studies, developed in the context of the d-wines project, aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the structure, composition, and formation mechanisms of red wine colloids by studying monovarietal wines from 10 of the most significant Italian red grape varieties. Starting from the idea that proteins, polysaccharides, and tannins should be involved in colloid formation, 110 monovarietal red wines were analysed for these components, revealing high inter- and intra-varietal diversity [1].

DOSAVIÑA® A new app for a more sustainable use of plant protection products in vineyard

Aims: DOSAVIÑA® was developed with the aim of helping farmers to determine optimal volume rates for spray applications in vineyards. The final developed tool is a good example of bringing research to end users.

Effect of late pruning on yield and wine composition in monastrell wines

Global warming is shifting vine phenology, resulting in a decoupling of phenolic and technological berry ripening. This is altering the balance of fruit traits, which is key relevance to winegrowers

‘TROPICAL’ POLYFUNCTIONAL THIOLS AND THEIR ROLE IN AUSTRALIAN RED WINES

Following anecdotal evidence of unwanted ‘tropical’ character in red wines resulting from vineyard interventions and a subsequent yeast trial observing higher ‘red fruit’ character correlated with higher thiol concentrations, the role of polyfunctional thiols in commercial Australian red wines was investigated.
First, trials into the known tropical thiol modulation technique of foliar applications of sulfur and urea were conducted in parallel on Chardonnay and Shiraz.1 The Chardonnay wines showed expected results with elevated concentrations of 3-sulfanylhexanol (3-SH) and 3-sulfanylhexyl acetate (3-SHA), whereas the Shiraz wines lacked 3-SHA. Furthermore, the Shiraz wines were described as ‘drain’ (known as ‘reductive’ aroma character) during sensory evaluation although they did not contain thiols traditionally associated with ‘reductive’ thiols (H2S, methanethiol etc.).
