Valutazione comparativa di cloni di Pinot nero per la produzione di vini base spumante in alcuni ambienti del Piemonte

Abstract

[English version below]

Un vasto programma si riferisce alla verifica di 28 selezioni clonali di Pinot nero atte a vini base spumante. Gli impianti sono stati realizzati in diversi ambienti delle Langhe e del Monferrato nel periodo 1992-1996, in 57 vigneti diversi e su una superficie complessiva di circa 50 Ha. In ogni vigneto si è seguito uno schema sperimentale a blocchi randomizzati con densità di circa 4000 piante/Ha, sistema di allevamento assurgente in controspalliera e potatura a guyot. Nel presente lavoro si inizia a presentare i risultati relativi ai primi sette vigneti impiantati e ad 8 selezioni clonali di Pinot nero limitatamente ai parametri délia produzione nel triennio 1995-97.
Gli aspetti più significativi derivati dallo studio sono stati i seguenti:
– l’annata, intesa soprattutto come andamento climatico, ha esercitato un effetto molto importante sulla produzione di uva e sul peso del grappolo;
– Tra i vigneti considerati (siti) sono state riscontrate ampie differenze; quanto più un ambiente si è dimostrato favorevole, tanto più importanti sono state le produzioni delle diverse selezioni di Pinot nero e viceversa.
– Nell ‘ambito delle selezioni clonali si sono distiniti tre gruppi di cloni sulla base délia loro produttività: alta (cloni 292, 236, 375 e 459), media (clone 52) ed inferiore alla media (cloni 521 e 386)
– E verificata l’alternanza produttiva del Pinot nero negli anni e la sua elevata reattività ai siti ed alle condizioni climatico-ambientali.

A wide program has been build up in order to verify 28 Pinot noir clonal selections for high quality sparkling wines. 57 experimental vineyards have been planted over the period 1992-96 in diversified environments of Langhe and Monferrato for a total surface of about 50 Ha.
In every vineyard a randomized scheme was adopted with a density of about 4000 plants/ha, with low training system and Guyot pruning. The result related in this paper are about the yield of the first 7 vineyards and of 8 Pinot noir clonal selections, in the period 1995-1997. The most significant results are:
– The year, mainly as climatic conditions, proved an important effect on grape production and bunch weight
– Wide differences have been verified among the experimental vineyards (sites); as more an environment has been demonstrated favorable, so much the productions of the different Pinot noir’s selections have been important and vice versa.
– Three groups of clones have been found out on the base of the productivity: high (clones 292, 236, 375, 459), medium (clone 52) and lower of the average (clones 521 and 386).
– The Pinot noir yield variability over the years and his high reactivity to the climatic and environmental conditions have been verified.

A population genetic study of Vitis vinifera L. subsp. sylvestris Gmelin based on 3.000 individuals from 20 countries

Until the 19th century, the wild form of cultivated grapevines (vitis vinifera l. subsp. sylvestris gmelin, v. sylvestris) was ubiquitous in many european and west asian regions. However, many factors like deforestation, the intensification of agriculture, or the introduction of several pests and pathogens decimated its presence in these growing sites, and natural populations are now mostly restricted to river-bank forests and creeks with specific soil and climate conditions. in fact, v. sylvestris is now considered an endangered subspecies that is protected by law in many european countries to prevent its loss.

Comportement du cépage Mourvèdre dans l’aire d’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée de Bandol

The Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée of Bandol covers an area of ​​1365 ha, 83% of which are planted with vines, the annual production being around 40,000 hl. Among the wines produced, there are mainly reds which assert themselves over time, but also rosés characterized by their pale colour, generally orange; the whites represent a small part of the production. The main grape variety of this AOC is Mouvèdre, of Spanish origin, which is also found in Provence and Languedoc.

First characterization of Torrontés Riojano in la Rioja, Argentina: impact of pruning intensity on vine vigor and grape production 

Pruning is one essential vineyard management activity whose main purpose is to regulate plant growth and vigour, modulating berry size, and consequently, wine quality. In Chilecito, La Rioja Province, Argentina, Torrontés Riojano stands as the only autochthonous variety for winemaking, yielding golden and aromatic berries and distinctive muscatel-tasting wines. This white cultivar, resulting from the natural cross between Moscatel de Alejandría x Criolla Chica, is traditionally trained in “parral” (horizontal trellis system), aimed to manage vigorous canopies. This project constitutes the first study on the influence of pruning intensity on Torrontés Riojano growth habit and berry quality.

Evaluation of the enological potential of red grapes in southern Brazil

The Campanha Gaúcha is located in the pampa biome and has unique characteristics, as it is the hottest producing region with the lowest volume of rain in Southern Brazil. Furthermore, the large extensions of flat or low-sloping areas, harsh winters and great sunshine during the ripening period, made this the second largest producer of fine wines in Brazil.

Projections of vine phenology and grape composition of Tempranillo variety In Rioja DOCa (Spain) under climate change

Aims: Some of the most direct effects of climate variability on grapevines are the changes in the onset and timing of phenological events and in the length of the growing season, which may affect grape quality. The aim of this research was to analyze the projected changes in vine phenology and on grape composition of the Tempranillo variety in Rioja DOCa under different climate change scenarios.
