Optimisation de la fertilisation du Cot sur le Causse de l’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée Cahors

Abstract

L’aire d’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée de Cahors (Lot) couvre une superficie de 21700 ha, répartis sur 45 communes, dont seulement 4300 sont plantés en vigne. Le cépage principal de cette A.O.C. est le Cot noir qui représente 70 % de l’encépagement, conférant ainsi leur typicité aux vins de cette région ; mais malgré cette importance, à notre connaissance, sa physiologie est restée assez peu étudiée.

Sur cette A.O.C. Cahors, traditionnellement on distingue le vignoble implanté sur le plateau calcaire : le Causse et celui de la vallée : terrasses alluviales du Lot et cônes d’éboulis. Nous avons choisi le Causse qui couvre 70 % de l’A.O.C., et correspond au quart environ de la superficie totale plantée en vigne. Sur différentes parcelles de ce terroir, nous avons réalisé un suivi sur plusieurs années par analyse de sols, de sous sols et par diagnostic foliaire. Les résultats d’analyse de limbes ont permis de déterminer, sur cette zone pédo-climatique homogène, des teneurs optimales en éléments minéraux pour ce cépage. Valeurs de référence permettant de pratiquer une fertilisation raisonnée qui est cependant à moduler en fonction des fluctuations climatiques interannuelles (Garcia et al. 1985).

Il ruolo dei comuni nella gestione del territorio e nella tutela dei vitigni autoctoni di qualita’

Questo simposio organizzato dall ‘Associazione nazionale Città del Vino, che mi onoro di presiedere, è per me motivo di particolare soddisfazione perché porta a compimento parte di un percorso iniziato dall’associazione da alcuni anni e che ha un obiettivo apparentemente semplice: sollecitare gli amministratori delle Città del Vino a perseguire con tenacia, tal­volta anche con la necessaria caparbietà, programmi ed interventi che abbiano al centro, sempre, la qualità della vita dei loro territori.

Variability in intrinsic water use efficiency (WUEi) of eight red varieties grown in the center of the Iberian Peninsula during an atypical vintage year

The study was performed in the summer of 2007, the point of confluence of a rather atypical vintage year in the area with abnormally low temperatures after a very humid spring

Application of UV-B radiation in pre- and postharvest as an innovative and sustainable cultural practice to improve grape phenolic composition

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a minor part of the solar spectrum, but it represents an important ecological factor that influences many biological processes related to plant growth and development. In recent years, the application of UVR in agriculture and food production is emerging as a clean and environmentally friendly technology.
In grapevine, many studies have been conducted on the effects of ambient levels of UVR, but there are few considering the effects of UV-B application on grape phenolic composition under commercial growing or postharvest conditions.

Regulated deficit irrigation and crop load interaction effects on grape heterogeneity

Aim: To investigate the interaction effects between irrigation and crop load and the resulting impact on grape heterogeneity within a Geographical Indication in South Australia. 

Methods and Results: Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were sampled at the time of harvest from the Coonawarra

Foliar application of urea improved the nitrogen composition of Chenin grapes

The nitrogen composition of the grapes directly affects the developments of alcoholic fermentation and influences the final aromatic composition of the wines. The aim of this study was to determine the effect and efficiency of foliar applications of urea on the nitrogen composition of grapes. This study was carried out during 2023 vintage and in the Chenin vineyard located in Estacion Experimental Mendoza (Argentina). Three urea concentrations 3, 6 and 9 Kg N/ha (C1, C2, and C3, respectively) and control (T) were applied in this vineyard at veraison.
