Comportement du cépage Mourvèdre dans l’aire d’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée de Bandol

Abstract

L’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée de Bandol couvre une superficie de 1365 ha dont 83 % sont plantés en vigne, la production annuelle étant de l’ordre de 40000 hl. Parmi les vins produits, on trouve essentiellement des rouges s’affïrmant avec le temps, mais aussi des rosés caractérisés par leur couleur pale, généralement orangée ; les blancs représentent une faible part de la production. Le cépage principal de cette A.O.C. est le Mouvèdre, d’origine espagnole, que l’on retrouve aussi en Provence et Languedoc. En fonction des exigences spécifiques de ce cépage, nous avons déterminé différents terroirs ; des parcelles caractéristiques de chacun d’eux ont été suivies par analyses physico-chimiques des sols et des sous-sols et par diagnostics foliaires durant plusieurs années. Ces analyses avaient pour but de pouvoir proposer une fertilisation adaptée à chaque terroir afin de favoriser l’obtention de raisins et de vins de qualité.

Carbon isotope discrimination in berry juice sugars: changes in response to soil water deficits across a range of vitis vinifera cultivars

In wine producing regions around the world, climate change has the potential to decrease the frequency and amount of precipitation and increase average and extreme temperatures. This will lower soil water availability and increase evaporative demand, thereby increasing the frequency and intensity of water deficit experienced in vineyards. Among other things, grapevines manage water deficit by regulating stomatal closure. The dynamics of this regulation, however, have not been well characterized across the range of Vitis vinifera cultivars. Providing a method to understand how different cultivars regulate their stomata, and hence water use in response to changes in soil water deficits will help growers manage vineyards and select plant material to better meet quality and yield objectives in a changing climate.

Preliminary results of the effect of post veraison pre-pruning on grape and wine composition in Tannat and Merlot

The seasonal’s climatic conditions determine the composition of grapes at harvest as they affect the vine’s physiology and development. High temperatures during the grape ripening period cause a high accumulation of sugars and degradation of fruit acidity ,and alter the synthesis of polyphenols. Therefore, some vineyard management can be applied in order to modify grapevine impact on climate variability. One example is the pre-pruning at the beginning of grape ripening, which can delay the ripening period and modify the composition of the grapes at harvest. This work aims to evaluate the pre-pruning field technique on yield components and alcohol content in wines of Tannat and Merlot varieties.

Adaptation to climate change by determining grapevine cultivar differences using temperature-based phenology models

Grapevine phenology is advancing with increased temperatures associated with climate change. This may result in higher fruit sugar concentrations at harvest and/or earlier compressed harvests and changes in the synchrony of sugar with other fruit metabolites. One adaptation strategy that growers may use to maintain typicity of wine style is to change cultivars. This approach may enable fruit

Spontaneous fermentation dynamics of indigenous yeast populations and their effect on the sensory properties of Riesling

Varietal Riesling aroma relies strongly on the formation and liberation of bound aroma compounds. Floral monoterpenes, green C6-alcohols, fruity C13-norisoprenoids and spicy volatile phenols are predominantly bound to disaccharides, which are produced and stored in the grape berry during berry maturation. Grape processing aims to extract maximum amount of the precursors from the berry skin to increase the potential for a strong varietal aroma in the wine. Subsequent yeast selection plays an important part in this process.

Effect of Quercus Alba oak barrels from different forests on the polyphenolic composition of Tempranillo red wines

The species and origin used for red wine oak aging determines the physiological composition of the wood and thus the finished wines. In America, oak is grown primarily in the states of Virginia, Missouri, Kentucky, Oregon, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin and California. The aim of this study was to analyze how the choice of barrels made with Quercus Alba oak from different geographic areas of the United States (Missouri, Kentucky, Ohio and Pennsylvania) influences the polyphenolic composition of Tempranillo red wines.
