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

The Languedoc-Roussillon wineries are facing a decline in wine yields particularly PGI yields due to many factors. Climate change is just ones, but is expected to increase in the future. There is also structurally a large heterogeneity of yield profiles among terroirs, varieties and strategies. This work investigates the link between yield, competitiveness and resilience to explore how resilient winegrowers have been in the recent past. To this end two approaches have been combined; (i) an accountancy database analysis at estate scale and (ii) municipality level competitiveness analysis. A new resilience indicator that characterizes the capacity of an estate to absorb yield variation is also defined. The FADN database between 2000 and 2018 of ex-Languedoc-Roussillon (France) and other data are used to analyse the current situation and the past evolution of competitiveness and resilience by type of estate (type of farm: PGI and/or PDO & type of commercialization: bulk and/or bottles). The net margin, which defines competitiveness, is not correlated to yield for all types but depends on the type of commercialization and the level of specialisation. The resilience indicator shows that the net margin of estates specialized in PGI is particularly sensitive to yield declines. We also show that price evolutions seem to compensate the effect of yield losses for the majority of types. Municipality scale analysis shows the links between local pedoclimate, yield, commercialization strategies and price. Overlapping a PDO with a PGI does not always increase a municipality’s PGI competitiveness. It is difficult to make links between causes and effects due to the complexity of the wine production system. Production diversification may be a solution. Resorting to the two level of analysis helps resolving the data gap that is necessary to explore the links between yield and economic performance of the wine estates in the long term.

Aims: Wine perceived quality lies on a number of different factors. Among these, sensory features, which are in turn dependent on chemical composition, play a primary role. There is traditionally a great emphasis on producing wines that have specific sensory profiles, particularly aroma, that reflect identity features connected to the place and the variety of origin. In the case of high quality

La zona sur de la Isla de Tenerife elabora principalmente vinos blancos. Desde hace unos años se intenta elaborar mayor cantidad de vinos tintos, siendo los resultados obtenidos variables en función

The ambition of the zonation of the Doc “Sangiovese di Romagna” is described as 25 siti sperimentali, aventi diversa origine geologica, in cui è stato individuato un vigneto omogeneo per la determinazione dei principali parametri viticoli ed enologici. In seguito è stato analizzato il contentto di stilbeni nei vini al fine di indepth il legame con le charatteristiche geopedologiche. The studio describes the positive relationship between the altitude and the content of the trans -piceide nelle province di Forlì and Ravenna and of the trans -resveratrolo a Ravenna. I suoli con maggiore calcare attivo hanno fornito vini più ricchi in stilbeni.

Le Dipartimento di Progettazione dell ‘Architettura del Politecnico di Milano et l’Istituto di Viticoltura della Facoltà d’Agraria di Piacenza dell’Università Cattolica del Sacra Cuore, ont elaboré une proposition pour réaliser, dans l’aire de colline de la province de Piacenza, un Parco Produttivo Agrovitivinicolo.
