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.

Effects of winemaking practices on Pinot blanc quality

Two winemaking processes for Pinot blanc were investigated following the chemical and sensory profiles for 12 months, aiming at: i) determining the chemical and sensory profiles

LC-MS based metabolomics discriminates premium from varietal chilean Cabernet Sauvignon cv. Wines

Aim of the study was to investigate the metabolomic differences between Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon wines, divided according to their quality in two main groups: “Varietal” and “Premium”, and to point out metabolites tentative markers of their chemical signature and sensorial quality. Initially, 150 (50 x 3 biological replicates) experimental wines were produced by the same semi-industrial process, which covered 8 different Chilean valleys. The wine classification made by experts, divided the wines into two major groups (“Varietal” and “Premium”) and four subgroups (two for each major group). All the samples were analyzed according to a robust LC-MS based untargeted work-flow (Arapitsas et al 2018), and the proposed minimum reporting standards for chemical analysis of the Metabolomics Standards Initiative (Sumner et al 2007)

An alternative for reducing calcium in wine and lowering the risk of insoluble salt formation

Wine minerals, including calcium, derive mainly from grape berry extraction, but they could also arise from winemaking additives, processing aids, and other sources.
