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.

First results on the chemical composition of red wines from the pressing of marc

In the Bordeaux vineyards, press wine represents approximately 15% of the total volume of wine produced[1]. Valuing this large volume of wine is necessary from an economic point of view, but also because of their organoleptic contribution to the blend, and their contribution to the construction of wines for laying down. Therefore, this study was developed considering the lack of recent scientific knowledge on the composition of red press wines. The aim of this study is to establish an initial assessment of their chemical composition including aromatic compounds and a phenolic part.

Influenza dell’esposizione del vigneto sulla maturazione dell’uva

Lo studio è stato condotto in vigneti commerciali di Vitis vinifera cv Nebbiolo localizzati in Piemonte, Italia del Nord-Ovest, intorno alla sommità di una collina. L’obiettivo dello studio è stato di determinare come l’esposizione del vigneto possa influenzare il comportamento vegetativo della vite, il manifestarsi delle fasi fenologiche, e la cinetica di maturazione dell’uva con particolare riguardo all’accumulo di antociani e flavonoli.

Distribution and sensory impact of new oak wood-derived compounds in wines

Despite the numerous research studies carried out in recent years, the study of wine aroma remains of great interest due to its complexity. Wine maturation in oak barrels is described as an important step in the production of quality wines. In fact, oak wood develops several aromatic nuances through its toasting which can be released into the wine. A great deal of work has been performed in order to identify the wood-derived volatile compounds that contribute to wine aroma (e.g., whisky-lactone, maltol, eugenol, guaiacol, vanillin).

The influence of culture medium on the dynamics of fermentation of wine yeasts

Wine yeast strains Saccharomyces ellipsoideus have important applications in food industry and in this regard is sought isolation as pure cultures and selecting those strains, which in laboratory investigations which have great biotechnological properties This study was intended as the ratio of live cells and autolysates cells also the influence of culture medium on this report. Yeasts selected for this study were isolated from industrial strains of indigenous grape varieties, namely: Feteasca Royal (FR) Feteasca White (FA), black Feteasca (FN), Romanian Tamaioasa (TR), Babeasca Black (BN) and Cotnari Grasa (GC).

Cover crop management and termination timing have different effects on the maturation and water potentials of Glera (Vitis vinifera L.) in Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Inter-row soil tillage in vineyards, stimulates vigor and production due to the absence of competition for water and nutrients, however negatively affects organic matter content, soil erosion, and compaction, resulting in reduced fertility. In this study, we investigated the effects of different cover crop management approaches, including cultivation type and termination timing, on the physiological and productive responses of a Glera vineyard.
The experimental trial was conducted in Precenicco (UD) from 2019 to 2021. A commercial mixture for autumn cover cropping was sown in alternating rows, and the sowing pattern was changed each year.
