Valorisation agroviticole de l’effet terroir par l’enherbement des sols

Abstract

Les études développées par l’INRA et l’UV, à Angers, concerne les terroirs viticoles et leur gestion optimisée, tant du point de vue agroviticole qu’oenologique. Les travaux antérieurs (Morlat, 1989) ont permis de donner une dimension scientifique au concept de terroir viticole et ont démontré l’influence considérable de ce facteur de production sur la qualité et la typicité des vins (Asselin et al, 1992). Une méthodologie de caractérisation intégrée des terroirs, s’appuyant sur « l’Unité Naturelle Terroir de Base » (considérée comme la plus petite unité spatiale de territoire utilisable dans la pratique, et dans laquelle la réponse de la vigne est homogène), a été mise au point (Riou et al, 1995).

Les terroirs identifiés et cartographiés selon cette méthode occupent une surface qui varie de quelques hectares à plusieurs centaines d’hectares. Ils peuvent constituer la base d’un zonage pour une région viticole, à partir duquel on peut envisager d’une part, une utilisation rationnelle de l’effet terroir à l’échelle de l’exploitation viticole, et d’autre part une gestion parcellaire des itinéraires techniques.

How much does the soil, climate and viticultural practices contribute to the variability of the terroir expression?

When considering the application of a systemic approach to assess the intrinsic complexity of agricultural production, the following question immediately arises

La zonazione della Franciacorta: il modello viticolo della DOCG

La Franciacorta è una piccola regione collinare della provincia di Brescia. Il territorio è molto eterogeneo sia dal punto di vista geologico, che geomorfologico e pedologico. Circa 1.000 ettari sono destinati alla produzione di uve Chardonnay, Pinot bianco e Pinot nero per il vino Franciacorta ottenuto unicamente utilizzando la lunga fermentazione naturale in bottiglia.

Can varietal ‘apricot’ aroma of Viognier wine be controlled with clonal selection and harvest timing?

Recent wine-like reconstitution sensory studies confirmed that several monoterpenes were the key aroma compounds in the perception of an ‘apricot’ aroma attribute in Viognier wine.

Nucleophilic fraction to estimate the antioxidant activity of inactivated yeast derivates

Oxidation in wine is mostly related to the Michael addition of nucleophiles on two quinones formed from the oxidation of ortho-diphenols. In wine this mechanism is responsible for the increase of the yellow hue and aroma loss. Glutathione exerts its antioxidant activity throughout its competitive addition onto quinones, but many other compounds can have the same behavior: sulfanyl
compounds, amino acids, etc. Addition of yeast derivates during the winemaking process can increase the level of those nucleophilic compounds and then confer to the wine a higher resistance

Red wine oxidation study by accelerating ageing tests and electrochemical method

Red wines can undergo many undesirable changes during the winemaking process and storage, particularly oxidative degradation due to numerous atmospheric oxygen intakes. This spoilage can impact organoleptic properties and color stabilization but this impact depends on the wine composition. Phenolic compounds constitute primary targets to oxidation reactions
