Diversificazione e valorizzazione di produzioni tipiche sul territorio: I cesanesi

Abstract

The zone in which the Cesanese vines are cultivated has a secular tradition of red wine­making. This zone is placed between the Simbruini mountains slopes and the surrounding hills and has pedologicai variability but a very homogeneous microclimate.
These conditions favour high quality of Cesanese grapes and wines. The investigations started for some time, with the contribution of “Regione Lazio”, regarding the characteri­zation and improvement of vine-growing and wine-producing of this zone, pointed out the presence of some “Cesanese di Affile” clones.
Among them will be choosed the best for colour, typicalness and quality. The Cesanese wines, with typical flavour and mellow taste are specially suitable for sweet or dry young wines and for dry wines short-middle aged.
The mixing of grape with high and constant antocyanins content and the grape withering technique, are both able to produce very good wine diversifications.

Effect of moderate wine consumption in animal models

In 1979, the so-called “french paradox” was proposed, that is, a correlation between wine consumption, a diet rich in saturated fats, and a low mortality from coronary heart disease. On the other hand, it has also been described that alcohol consumption has negative effects on aging and increases the risk of liver cirrhosis and cancer. However, both hypotheses are based on population studies that may present distortions due to multiple factors (geographic, diet, smoking, socioeconomic level, etc.).
