The marked climate change impact on vine and grape development (phenology, sugar content, acidity …) is one of the manifestations of Genotype X Environment X Management interactions importance in viticulture. Some practices, such as irrigation, can mitigate the effect of water deficit on grape development, but warming is much more difficult to challenge. High temperatures tend to alter the acid balance of the fruit with a parallel increase in sugar concentration. In the long term, genetic improvement to select varieties better coping with temperature elevation appear as a good option to support sustainable viticulture. Nevertheless, the existing phenotypic diversity for grape quality components that are influenced by temperature is poorly understood, which jeopardizes breeding strategies.

In recent years, proteins endogenous to grape have become of great interest to the wine industry because they represent a new alternative to other biopolymers subjected to more legal restrictions (i.e. animal origin and synthetics) that can be used in technological applications to modulate sensory attributes such as wine color and have a positive impact on wine quality.

Vineyards are highly variable and this variation is largely driven by environmental conditions and seasonal variation. For example, warm temperatures

The spanish wine industry stands at a crossroads, transitioning from a traditional emphasis on wine production to a landscape increasingly characterized by diversified service offerings. This paper delves into the nuances of servitization within spanish wineries, investigating the determinants of servitization and the impact of these diversified services on revenue streams. The paper posits hypotheses concerning the influence of various factors, such as winery size, location, market orientation, ownership structure, market competition, regulatory environment, market demand, firm capabilities, owner characteristics, and firm age, on the adoption of diversified service offerings in spanish wineries. The methodology involves comprehensive regression analysis to unravel the drivers of servitization within this context.

Global grape production amounts to approximately 70 million tons per year, with Europe contributing 61% of the world’s wine output, primarily from Italy, France, and Spain.
