Présentation d’une méthodologie de caractérisation des terroirs et valorisation par l’étude de l’effet terroir sur la typicité et l’originalité du produit vin dans la région des Côtes du Rhône

Abstract

In the global economic context, an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée must now more than ever control the typicity and originality of the wines it produces. It is in this spirit that the Côtes du Rhône have decided to acquire the means necessary for this control. As a preamble, it should be noted that as a professional entity, the Syndicat des Vignerons des Côtes du Rhône aims to develop a methodology for applying terroir studies to the promotion of the wine product. Thus, for all the purely fundamental aspects concerning the characterization of the terroirs, our wish is to surround ourselves with the competence of research partners, specialized in the matter.
Our own objective is to provide winegrowers with tools that allow them to better control the typicality of their product, by optimizing the development of the potential of their vineyard.

The methodology that we have developed to control the typicality of products through the terroir effect breaks down into three main components: – the characterization of the fundamental components of the nature of the terroirs,
– the study of the impact of the effect of the terroir on the physiology of the plant and especially on the typicity of the wine produced,
– the organization within the production units of all the elements of control and management of the viticultural parameters for the optimization of the oenological phase.

Climatic zoning of viticultural production periods over the year in the tropical zone: application of the methodology of the Geoviticulture MCC system

L’objectif de cette recherche est le zonage climatique des périodes viticoles de l’année dans la Vallée du São Francisco, région brésilienne productrice de vins située en climat tropical semi-aride. Dans cette région, la production peut être échelonnée sur tous les mois de l’année.

Use of satellite in precision viticulture: the Franciacorta experience

Today, the concept of precision vine management (or site-specific viticulture) has a great relevance. It is based on the practice of a different management in relation to the different features of the crop site. In this way, all practices should be adapted to the land spatial variability and should be linked to the real needs of vines.

Influence of inactive dry yeast treatments during grape ripening on postharvest berry skin texture parameters and phenolic compounds extractability

Inactive dry yeast treatments in the vineyard are a tool used with the aim to improve the concentration and quality of secondary metabolites in grapes, leading to a better differentiation of the wines made from grapes differently treated. In this work, a foliar spraying treatment with yeast derivatives specifically designed to be used with the patent pending application technology of Lallemand Inc. Canada (LalVigne® Mature, Lallemand Inc., Montreal, Canada) was tested on Vitis vinifera L. cv. Barbera and Nebbiolo black winegrapes. The aim was to evaluate the effect of this treatment on the phenolic compounds accumulation, the skin physical-mechanical properties and the related phenolic extractability. Prior to analysis, the berries were sorted by flotation in order to evaluate their distribution by density class, and to determine the skin texture parameters of berries with different sugar contents, thus understanding also the ripening effect.
