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.

Carbon isotope discrimination in berry juice sugars: changes in response to soil water deficits across a range of vitis vinifera cultivars

In wine producing regions around the world, climate change has the potential to decrease the frequency and amount of precipitation and increase average and extreme temperatures. This will lower soil water availability and increase evaporative demand, thereby increasing the frequency and intensity of water deficit experienced in vineyards. Among other things, grapevines manage water deficit by regulating stomatal closure. The dynamics of this regulation, however, have not been well characterized across the range of Vitis vinifera cultivars. Providing a method to understand how different cultivars regulate their stomata, and hence water use in response to changes in soil water deficits will help growers manage vineyards and select plant material to better meet quality and yield objectives in a changing climate.
