Terroir e DOC: riflessi produttivi e commercial

Abstract

Da dove scaturisce tutto l’interesse attuale per il terroir? Si provi, per dare risposta a questo quesito, ad immaginare il vino avulso dalla sua dimensione territoriale. Cosa si otterrebbe? Un vino bianco, un vino rosso o quant’altro, ma comunque un prodotto privo di conno­tazione geografica, di premesse storiche, di radici tradizionali, di potere evocativo, di iden­tità e di personalità.
La viticoltura, a differenza di altre produzioni agroalimetari, ha da sempre “denominato” i propri prodotti con il nome della zona d’origine ed oggi, nell’epoca in cui spesso la qualità e il valore degli alimenti vengono riconosciuti solo in riferimento all’area di produzione, il vino continua a godere di questo innegabile vantaggio strategico.
Inoltre il binomio vino-territorio assume rinnovato interesse ai giomi nostri, dove sotto la spinta dell’enoturismo, il territorio ha assunto accanto alla funzione storica di “fattore di pro­duzione”, anche quella moderna di “prodotto” (De Ros & Falcetti, 1996). Il vino, cioè, si vende sia in virtù della qualità intrinseca (che potremo definire tecnica ed organolettica), sia grazie al suo “intorno” rappresentato dalla cantina, dalla zona di produzione, dalle manifes­tazioni legaate ad esso, etc.
Il presente contributo è volto a chiarire la relazione tra terroir e DOC, sia per quanto riguar­da gli aspetti produttivi che la sua componente extraproduttiva (marketing, comunicazione, commerciale, etc.).

Closure permeability: a key parameter for modulating the aroma of monovarietal white wines during bottle ageing

Bottle aging is crucial for wine quality, influencing its chemical and sensory properties [1]. Ideally, a phase of qualitative ageing enhances sensory attributes before a decline in quality occurs. Understanding the impact of oenological variables on these phases is a key challenge in modern winemaking.

EFFECTS OF BIODYNAMIC VINEYARD MANAGEMENT ON GRAPE RIPENING MECHANISMS

Biodynamic agriculture, founded in 1924 by Rudolph Steiner, is a form of organic agriculture. Through a holistic approach, biodynamic agriculture seeks to preserve the diversity of agriculture and the existing interactions between the mineral world and the different components of the organic world. Biodynamic grape production involves the use of composts, herbal teas and mineral preparations such as 500, 501 and CBMT.
Several scientific studies have provided evidence on the effects of biodynamic farming on the soil, the plant and the wine. Numerous empirical opinions of wine growers support the existence of differences brought by such a management.

EXTRACTIBLE COMPOUNDS FROM MICROAGGLOMERATED CORK STOPPERS

After bottling, the wine continues to evolve during storage. The choice of the stopper is an important factor in this evolution. In addition to the oxygen permeability of the closure, the migration of stopper compounds into the wine can also have an impact on the wine organoleptic properties. Many studies have shown that transfers of volatile compounds from the stoppers into the wine can happen depending on the type of closure used (1). Moreover, when cork-made stoppers are used, the migration of phenolic compounds from the stopper into the wine can also occur (2, 3).

Physiological response of new cultivars resistant to fungi confronted to drought in a semi-arid Mediterranean area

Water is one of the most limiting factors for viticulture in Mediterranean regions. Former researches showed that water shortage hampers both vegetative and reproductive developments. INRA is running programs to breed varieties carrying QTL of tolerance to major fungi, i.e. powdery and downy mildews. Some varieties have been already certified or are close to be certified. However, little is known about the response of these varieties to water deficit, which behavior is critical for their development. This study characterized physiological responses of 4 new varieties to water deficit and described relationship between them.
