Étude des relations sol-vigne sur le vignoble de Côte Rôtie

Context and purpose of the study. Leaf osmotic adjustment (i.e., active accumulation of osmolytes in the cells) has been reported in grapevines in response to drought and as a natural process throughout the growing season (seasonal osmotic adjustment).

Context and purpose of the study. Climate change accelerates grapevine’s phenology, advancing harvests by 2–3 weeks over the past 40 years negatively affecting wine style due to a lack of acidity and too much alcohol.

An organoleptic defect, called fresh mushrooms off-flavor (FMOff), appeared in wines and spirits since the 2000’s. Numerous researches demonstrated that octen-3-one, 3-octanol and octen-3-ol (C8 compounds) were involved in the mushroom off-flavor in wines

Wine quality traits are usually given by parameters such as aroma profile, total acidity, alcohol content, colour and phenolic content, among others

The valorization of winemaking byproducts is subordinated to the knowledge of their chemical characteristics. This work concerned the determination of the polyphenolic profile and the dietary fiber content of skins and seeds from unfermented and fermented pomace of different cultivars (Moscato bianco, Cortese, Arneis, Pinot Noir, Barbera, Grignolino, Nebbiolo), sampled from some wineries in the Piedmont area (Italy) during the 2020 harvest.
