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.

Three new Apulian seedless varieties available for the table grape supply chain

The table grape industry in Europe is undergoing significant changes. For instance, in Italy, the national register of vine varieties was established in 1969, and since then, many varieties of table grapes have been registered. In the first thirty years, from 1969 to 1999, 62 seeded and 24 seedless varieties were registered. In the subsequent period, from 2000 to the present day, 23 seeded varieties and 99 seedless varieties were registered.

Study of intramolecular distribution of hydrogen isotopes in ethanol depending on deuterium content of water and the origin of carbohydrates

The paper presents the results of consistently developing studies carried out in 2022-2024 on the distribution of deuterium 2H(D) in intracellular water of grapes and wine products, taking into account the influence of natural, climatic and technogenic factors using high-resolution quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy 2H(D)-qNMR.

Unravelling Saccharomyces cerevisiae biosynthethic pathways of melatonin, serotonin and hydroxytyrosol  by UPLC-HRMS Isotopic labelling analysis

The main objective is to unravel the yeast biosynthetic pathways for MEL, SER and HT by using the respective labelled amino acids precursors: 15N2-L tryptophan and 13C-tyrosine.
The alcoholic fermentation experiments are performed with two different commercial
S cereviseae yeasts using synthetic must with the addition of the labelled compounds and the bioactive compounds were followed during the fermentation process. Six biological replicates of the fermentations were considered. MEL, SER and HT were analysed by UHPLC coupled to High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS). Accurate mass determination allowed to unequivocally distinguishing labelled and unlabelled compounds.

Impact of seaweeds extracts applied to grapevine cv Tempranillo

Grapevine is one of the most-frequently phytosanitary treated crop systems. Consequently, restrictions have been applied by the European Commission on the number of pesticide treatments and the maximum quantity of copper fungicides allowed per year. Moreover, there is a need and an increasing demand for more ecological-sustainable agricultural products.
Seaweeds are currently used as fertilizers in viticulture, as they have been proven to be beneficial in several ways related to growth and nutrition.
