Incidence de la nature du sol et du cépage sur la maturation du raisin, à Saint Emilion, en 1995

Abstract

L’A.O.C. Saint-Emilion, une des plus prestigieuses du Bordelais, se situe sur la rive droite de la Dordogne en amont de Libourne. Le vignoble est implanté sur des formations géologiques du Tertiaire (Oligocène) et du Quaternaire, sur lesquelles se sont développés des sols très variés. De nombreuses études ont rendu compte de cette hétérogénéité et permis de mieux connaître le fonctionnement et les potentialités viticoles de ces sols (Duteau et al. 1981, Van Leeuwen, 1991).

Dans ce travail, nous avons étudié le comportement des deux principaux cépages noirs de la région, le Cabemet franc et le Merlot noir, sur trois sols : un sol graveleux (G), un sol à sous-sol très argileux (A) et un sol sableux avec une nappe d’eau à portée des racines (S). L’objectif a été de mieux connaître les interactions entre le sol et le cépage, afin de valoriser au maximum les potentialités du terroir par une adaptation judicieuse du cépage au type de sol. Nous présentons ici les résultats obtenus au cours du millésime 1995, qui seront comparés avec ceux obtenus en 1994.

Increasing microalgae biomass feedstock by valorizing wine gaseous and liquid residues

Global warming due to greenhouse gases (GHG) has become a serious worldwide concern. The new EU Green Deal aims t0 achieve GHG emissions reduction by at least 55% by 2030 and a climate neutral EU economy by 2050. The deal strongly encourages GHG reducing measures at local, national and European levels. The REDWine project will demonstrate the technical, economic and environmental feasibility of reducing by, at least, 31% of the CO2 eq. emissions produced in the winery industry value chain by utilizing biogenic fermentation CO2 for microalgae biomass production

Impact of aging on dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in Corvina and Corvinone wines

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is a low molecular weight sulfur compound produced in wine during aging by the chemical degradation of S-Methyl-L-methionine (SMM). Investigating the aromatic profile of Amarone commercial wines from different wineries, it was found that DMS presented a high variation in concentration across wine samples ranging from 2.88 to 64.34 μg/L, which potentially can

Single plant oenotyping: a novel approach to better understand the impact of drought on red wine quality in Vitis x Muscadinia genotypes

Adopting disease-tolerant varieties is an efficient solution to limit environmental impacts linked to pesticide use in viticulture. In most breeding programs, these varieties are selected depending on their abilities to tolerate diseases, but little is known about their behaviour in response to abiotic constraints.

VOLTAMETRIC PROFILING OF RED WINE COMPOSITION DURING MACERATION: A STUDY ON FOUR GRAPE VARIETIES

During red wine vinification, maceration allows the must, and consequently the wine, to be enriched with several compounds that contribute to the creation of the typical organoleptic characteristics of red wines. Among these, extraction of polyphenols (PPs) during maceration is a major process of enological interest.
The purpose of this study was the evaluate the suitability of a rapid analytical approach based in linear sweep voltammetry to monitor PPs extraction during vinification.

This degenerative disease of the retina is mainly due to the molecular mechanism involving the production and secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEF). Despite therapeutic advances thanks
