A new path for sustainable development. First results in a Venetian “bio-métaéthique company“ (Italy)

Abstract

This paper will show the results of changes in income in a Veneto winery located in the municipality of Motta di Livenza (Treviso) in the North East of Italy, determined by the application of the “Holistic Universal Sustainability Charter” Metaethic 4.1CC “or” Sustainability Charter BIO-MétaÉthique 4.1CC “of GiESCO (Carbonneau, Cargnello, 2017).

These activities allowed the realization and subsequently to certify “Company BIO-MétaÉthique 4.1CC” according to the new, innovative, revolutionary “Direct Certification and Warranty of Sustainability 4.1CC” (Cargnello, Carbonneau, 2018).

Total cost of production and the “Gross Seleable Product” (GSP) of the uncertified grapes and wine “BIO-MétaÉtique 4.1CC” with those certified “BIO – MétaÉtique 4.1CC ” were compared.

The application of the “Sustainable Holistic Universal Metaethic Charter 4.1CC” or “Sustainability BIO-MétaÉthique 4.1CC” of GiESCO and the related ” Direct Certification and Warranty of Sustainability 4.1CC ” resulted in an increase in the net profit for the company between 16 and 25%.

This change in profit for the company id due to the containment of the production cost obtained above all in the vineyard by the rationalization of the management of the soil, the plant and the phytosanitary treatments and the increase in the price of certified “BIO-MétaÉtique 4.1CC bottle compared to the non-certified one.

These results will be verified with further observations in the international markets.

Influence of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Oenococcus oeni strains on sensory profile of sicilian nero d’avola wine after malolactic fermentation.

AIM: Malolactic fermentation is a process of decarboxylation of L-malic acid into L-lactic acid and carbon dioxide that leads to deacidification, modification of odors and flavors of wines [1]

Untargeted metabolomics reveals the impact of cork oxygen transfer on non-volatile compounds during red wine ageing

During red wine aging, numerous chemical reactions occur, contributing to the modification and enhancement of the wine sensory parameters over time [1].

TerraClim, an online spatial decision support system for the wine industry

Climate projections for the future suggest favourable conditions for some wine producing regions, but challenging conditions for others. For instance, temperature increases are likely to shift grapevine phenology, ripening and harvest dates, and potentially affect grape quality and yield.

Using atmospheric and statistical models to understand local climate and assess spatial temperature variability at a fine scale over the Stellenbosch wine district, South Africa

Atmospheric and statistical models were used to increase understanding of potential climatic impacts, resulting from mesoscale physical processes that cause significant temperature variability for viticulture within the Stellenbosch Wine of Origin district. Hourly temperature values from 16 automatic weather stations and 40 tinytag data loggers located in the vineyards were analysed.

Behaviour of two training systems for mechanical pruning combined with different nitrogen fertilizations on cv. Colombard

Today winegrowers involved in mechanical winter pruning are applying this viticultural technique on two main training systems, the free cordon, appearing to be the more efficient, and the trellised vertical shoot positioning (VSP) system. The main reasons for maintaining the trellis are generally due to common habits in vineyard management, risk of wind damage for the shoots, or risk of decrease in photosynthesis potential. The aim of the study was to assess the effects of the two training systems on vine. In addition, different nitrogen fertilization levels were applied on the two systems to evaluate the best combination to achieve yield and grape quality.
