La sémantique liée à la notion de terroir : une objectivité pluridisciplinaire

Abstract

Il n’est pas évident au premier abord de donner une définition exhaustive de la notion de terroir tant celle-ci peut être simplifiée ou compliquée à souhait. Ainsi le flou qui entoure ce concept laisse la porte ouverte à diverses interprétations du terroir. Celles-ci tendent vers un niveau d’objectivité critiquable car les champs qu’elles explorent ne suffisent pas à expliquer la notion à eux seuls, constituant seulement la partie d’un tout. Nous pensons qu’il est nécessaire, pour appréhender une définition du concept de terroir la plus exhaustive possible, d’envisager le terroir comme un ensemble d’éléments en interaction les uns avec les autres. Partant de cette hypothèse, un terroir serait donc une entité unique en son genre du fait de combinaisons différentes des éléments entre eux. Ainsi la probabilité d’obtenir deux terroirs de même type diminue rapidement lorsque le nombre d’éléments augmente – sachant que pour n éléments il y a n (n-1) combinaisons possibles.

Aroma characterisation of mold resistant sparkling wines produced in a warm-temperate area

In recent years, resistant varieties have returned to the attention of the wine sector as a response to climate change and the reduction of pesticides in grapevine management, which is the main culprit of pesticide use in European agriculture. In this context, the production of sparkling wines could be strongly influenced due to its requirements for a particular balance between sugars and acidity, and the necessity of sound grapes to ensure wine quality. However, these parameters are not the only ones that define the suitability of a grape variety to produce sparkling wine.

A stratified sampling approach to investigate the impact of climate and maturity on the aroma and phenolic composition of grenache grapes and wines within the poctefa area

Context and purpose of the study. Climate change is affecting wine production and induces a large variability in wine composition between vintages.

Climate change impacts on grapevine leafroll disease and its transmission by mealybugs

Climate change impacts crop plants, plant pathogens, and their insect vectors and hence adds abiotic stress to the triangle of plant-virus-vector interactions.

Factors influencing cover crop water competition in vineyards and implications for future drought adaptation

Vineyard water management in Australia is often associated with irrigation in warm and hot climates, but in cooler regions the larger share of the seasonal water demand is met by rainfall.

Oak wood barrel tannin potential builds white wines oxidative stability and contributes to wine metabolomics fingerprint

Considerable advances have been made in the chemical characterization of wine metabolites through its holistic study using both targeted and untargeted metabolomics approach. The metabolite pool is subject to an intense molecular dialogue which reinforces the wine complexity even after bottling.
