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.

Influence of soil characteristics on vine growth, plant nutrient levels and juice properties: a multi-year analysis

Soil physical and chemical properties affect vine nutrition, as indicated by leaf and petiole nutrient content, in a way that may directly impact wine properties.

Influence of maceration time and temperature on some bioactive compounds in Malvazija istarska white wines

The rising trend of moderate wine consumption as a part of a healthy lifestyle promotes white wines with higher phenolic content because of their bioactive properties. Duration and temperature of the maceration process have a marked impact on the content and composition of wine phenolics. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of applying maceration processes of different durations and temperature on total phenolic content and flavan-3-ol compounds concentration of Malvazija istarska (Vitis vinifera L.) wines, an autochthonous Croatian white grape variety. Vinification took place at the Institute of Agriculture and Tourism (Poreč) where pre-fermentative two days cryomaceration treatment at 8 °C (CRYO), seven days maceration treatment at 16 °C (M7), and prolonged post-fermentative maceration treatments at 16 °C for 14 days (M14), 21 day (M21), and 42 days (M42) were studied and compared to non-maceration control treatment (C). Total phenolic content was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu colorimetric method using a UV/VIS spectrophotometer and the results were expressed as gallic acid equivalents (mg/L GAE).

ASSESSMENT OF ‘DOLCETTO’ GRAPES AND WINES FROM DIFFERENT AREAS OF OVADA DOCG

Dolcetto (Vitis vinifera L.) is one of the traditionally cultivated varieties in Piedmont (north-east Italy). Dolcetto wines have long been associated with local consumption and they are little known internationally. In particular, the Ovada area (south-east Piedmont), even if it represents a small share of the regional PDO Dolcetto production, is one of the oldest and vocated territory, giving wine also suitable for aging. In this study, the basic composition and phenolic content of Dolcetto grapes for Ovada DOCG wines have been investigated in three different vintages (2020-2022), as well as the main aspects of the derived commercial and experimental wines (basic parameters, phenolics, volatile compounds, sensory properties).

Health space in vine spa in the world

This elaboration presents vine spa has precious contribution of social development health and well being in culture of wine regions. The majority of the vine-spas in the world draw raw materials from the vineyard; both for cosmetics treatments and for dishes in their restaurants. Vitis vinifera vine provides fresh grapes for dishes and massages, seeds and oil from the seeds, as well as the leaves, and its extracts, and above all the wine.
