La Région Délimitée du Douro et le Vin de Porto — un terroir historique —

Abstract

La viticulture de la Région Délimitée du Douro, une des héritières de la viticulture ancestrale, traditionnellement empirique et de qualité, tout en intégrant la modernité et les outils contemporains, respecte et a toujours présent les principes sur lesquels elle s’est développé.

Commes les a très bien définit M.Champagnol :
1. La nécessité de réserver les meilleures terres pour les céréales destinés à la nourriture humaine ;
2. La production de moûts riches en sucre afin de contourner le problème de la mauvaise conservation des vins peu alcoolisés ;
3. Les petits récipients vinaires qui imposaient une vinification en petit volume, et qui ont permis d’établir des corrélations entre les parcelles et le vin,
sont quelques facteurs qui ont orienté cette viticulture vers un objectif de qualité.
Ce chemin de la qualité – qui conceme l’authenticité du vin et, Évidemment, la garantie donnée au consommateur, qui est le dernier juge de la qualité -, est un long chemin que l’on poursuit depuis presque 300 ans dans la Région Délimité du Douro.

EFFECTS OF HYDROXYTYROSOL ON THE CHEMICAL PROFILE AND SENSORY ATTRIBUTES OF A RED TUSCAN WINE

The chemical profile and sensory attributes were studied in Borrigiano IGT Toscana wine (Italy), a blend of Sangiovese 85% and Cabernet Sauvignon 15% grapes harvested in September 2020, where 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanol (hydroxytyrosol, HT, [1]) was added to a 750-ml wine bottle in 3 different amounts (30, 60, 120 mg) and compared with the control (no HT addition). The study aimed to evaluate whether Polyphenol-HT1®, a high purity HT (>99%) produced by Nova Mentis using biotechnology, could be used as a supplement to sulfites and how it would impact the sensory and chemical profile of this wine [2]. Each sample was prepared in triplicate.

Représentation holistique d’une dynamique pluridisciplinaire suite à la cartographie des sols en Beaujolais

Une démarche de cartographie des sols a été engagée en 2009 par l’interprofession des vins du Beaujolais à l’initiative des professionnels de la région. A fin 2015

Study of Malvasia di Candia Aromatica shelf-life: effect of time and temperature on aroma compounds through an HS-SPME GCxGC-Ms approach

Young white wines should be consumed within a short time after bottling to avoid loss of their fresh, fruity attributes. Shelf-life of white wines can be extended if they are stored under suitable conditions of time and temperature prior to consumption.

Plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis and preliminary trials for the application of the DNA-free genome editing in grapevine cv. Corvina veronese

Grapevine (Vitis spp.) is a globally significant fruit crop, and enhancing its agronomic and oenological traits is crucial to meet changing agricultural conditions and consumer demands. Conventional breeding has played a key role in domesticating grapevine varieties, but it is a time-consuming process to develop new cultivars with desirable traits for cultivation.
New plant breeding techniques (NpBTs) offer a potential revolution in grapevine cultivation, and genome editing has shown promise for targeted mutagenesis. The success of these biotechnological approaches relies on efficient in vitro regeneration protocols, particularly through somatic embryogenesis (SE).

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
