Application of nitrogen forms such as nitrate, urea, and amino acids effects on leaf and berry physiology and wine quality

Climate, especially temperature, plays a major role in grapevine development. Several bioclimaticindices have been created to relate temperature to grapevine phenology (e.g. Winkler Index, Huglin Index, Grapevine Flowering Véraison model [GFV]).

Climate change will lead to persistent changes in temperature and precipitation patterns which will affect the characteristics of wine produced in each region.

The spine grapes (Vitis davidii Foëx.) are wild grape species that grow in southern China, and can be used for table grapes, juicing and winemaking. To systematically investigate the flavor profiles of spine grapes, flavonoids and volatile compounds were detected in five spine grape varieties (Seputao, Ziqiu, Miputao, Tianputao and Baiputao) using HPLC-QqQ-MS/MS and GC-MS. The content of these compounds highly depended on the variety, such as the total concentrations of anthocyanins (91.43-328.85 mg/kg FW) and free norisprenoids (2.60 to 11.46 μg/kg FW).

Le zonage vitivinicole présente toute une série d’applications pratiques. Son importance est en train d’augmenter, soit en fonction des moyens techniques chaque fois plus performants, qui rendent possible le développement des zonages de plus en plus intégrées, consistants et utiles, soit en fonction d’un marché de plus en plus mondialisé. L’article situe la contribution du zonage au niveau de la production vitivinicole et du développement du territoire.

The growing demand for non-alcoholic beverages, driven by health-conscious consumers and shifting social norms, has positioned dealcoholized wines as a promising alternative in the global beverage industry (Akhtar et al., 2025, in press; Kakroo, 2024).
