Les motivations du vigneron en quête de l’expression “terroir”

Abstract

Jusqu’en 1985 les vendanges ont été réalisées par parcelles et l’assemblage après fermentation. Lors des vendanges 1985, j’ai pu constater à la perception gustative une rupture d’harmonie du vin lors des assemblages même partiels de raisins provenant de parcelles différentes. J’ai noté parallèlement une bonne réaction de la clientèle pour une plus grande personnalisation du produit. De ce fait, j’ai été amené à rechercher les limites objectives du terroir d’une cuvée et par un affinement constant et permanent des paramètres spécifiques à chacun des terroirs.

L’évolution de mon approche a été ordonnée de la façon suivante :
– observations géo-pédologique des parcelles avec dégustation de raisins,
– constatation des différences de type de maturité et de vitesse de maturité des raisins,
– perception du climat propre à chacune des parcelles : rôle de la topographie, de l’altitude, du vent, de la proximité de l’eau.
– adaptation progressive du travail jusqu’à la cueillette des raisins aux différents type de terroir.

«Nektar» -the new red variety wine grape aromatic high quality

The multi-annual study of the International Genetic Bank of the Grape Vine has shown that red varieties are enough, but the red varieties that produce high-quality red wine are minimal.

Bees, climate changes, and “environmental sustainability 4.1c” in viticulture and the territory for a new global multiproductive “biometaethical district 4.1c”

The use of bees as pollinators in vine varieties with physiologically female flowers (Picolit, Bicane, Ceresa, Moscato rosa, etc.) (Cargnello, 1983) and as bio-indicators for biodiversity and environmental sustainability is well-known. Furthermore, there are interests in: 1-a. Making the viticulture of Belluno (Province of Veneto in North-eastern Italy, which is also famous for the Dolomites -a UNESCO World Heritage-) regain the socioeconomic role which it is entitled to and which it had got in its past by aiming at the enhancement of local grape variety in harmony with others, for example with the neighboring area of the Conegliano and Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG; 2-a. Maintaining and further improving the important natural and healthy environment of Belluno, and making its territory and the “lookout” means of the environmental sustainability, including its vineyards, even more naturally original and sustainable 4.1C.

Successful training on responsible wine consumption in Germany

Considering that „prevention requires information”, in 2007, the european education program wine in moderation (wim) started. The common message of responsible and only moderate wine consumption is implemented in each participating country, adapted to national circumstances. In germany, besides recruiting new wim members from the wine sector, the deutsche weinakademie focusses also on information and education of future wine makers and cellar men in professional schools. The seminars cover basic information about the existing legal framework (youth protecting law, drink driving laws, etc.), the self regulation code of conduct for commercial communications (advertising) of alcoholic beverages as well as the health effects of alcoholic beverages, and of wine in particular.

Cover crops in viticulture

In this audio recording of the IVES science meeting 2022, Gonzaga Santesteban (Department of Agronomy, Biotechnology and Food Science, Public University of Navarra (UPNA), Pamplona, Navarra, Spain) speaks about cover crops in viticulture. This presentation is based on 2 original articles accessible for free on OENO One.

A new graphical interface as a tool to integrate data from GC-MS and UPLC-MS-QTOF: new compounds related with port wine aging

Port wine value is related to its molecular profile resulting from the changes occurring during the ageing period. It is of empirical knowledge that the style is greatly affected by the oxidation regimens, i.e. bottle versus barrel storage
