L’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée « Huile Essentielle de Lavande de Haute Provence »

Abstract

Depuis des siècles, la lavande est utilisée pour son parfum et pour ses vertus thérapeutiques naturelles.
La cueillette de la lavande sauvage s’est développée à grande échelle dans les montagnes calcaires de la Provence à la fin du 19e siècle. L’écoulement de la production s’effectuait presque exclusivement vers la ville de Grasse, cité des parfumeurs.
Progressivement, la culture s’est substituée à la cueillette dans les années 1930.

Volatile composition of base wines to obtain sparkling wines from seven autochthonous grape varieties from Castilla y León (Spain)

The aim of this work was to characterize the aromatic profile of white and rosé base wines for the elaboration of sparkling wines from seven autochthonous grape varieties of Castilla y León. The ‘Albarín’, ‘Godello’ and ‘Verdejo’ white grape cultivars contribute with more fruity notes than the ‘Viura’ and ‘Malvasía’ cultivars; and ‘Prieto picudo’ coloured grape cultivar has more fruity character than ‘Garnacha’.

Agrivoltaic: chances preparing Riesling towards a better climate resilience

Agrivoltaics (AV), the innovative dual-use of land for agriculture and photovoltaic energy production on the same land, offers a promising solution to the challenges of expanding renewable energy without compromising valuable agricultural land.

Monitoring of alcoholic fermentation: development of an applicable in-line system

Alcoholic fermentation plays a crucial role in the winemaking process. In addition to producing ethanol, it results in the formation of various secondary metabolites that significantly influence the wine’s characteristics.

A comparative study on physiological responses to drought in wild Vitis species 

The crossings of three wild Vitis species are commonly used as rootstocks in wine production worldwide. Factors such as disease resistance and vigor are most important for their selection.
With climate change extending drought conditions and water limitations, the selection of rootstocks conferring increased tolerance to drought takes on greater importance. Therefore, identifying Vitis species with improved drought tolerance and incorporating them into breeding programs could contribute to more resilient rootstocks under water limiting conditions. Furthermore, those species serve as a valuable resource to increase genetic variability of rootstocks. We hypothesize that species native to drier habitats will exhibit superior physiological performance under drought stress.
