Impacts of climate change on wine producer countries located north of the wine belt

Abstract

Climate change poses significant challenges to the global wine sector, with cool-climate countries particularly vulnerable to its effects. The research employs a panel data analysis to investigate the impact of climate change on the wine industry in 66 countries, focusing on 11 cool-climate countries located north of the wine belt in the northern hemisphere. Utilizing data from oiv, fao and climatic statistics from the climate change knowledge portal of the world bank spanning from 1961 to 2020, the research examines the relationship between temperature, precipitation, and wine production. The study estimates a wine production function to assess the influence of climate change on the industry, considering variables such as global warming, climate change, and structural breaks in new wine world and cool climate countries. Findings suggest that changes in temperature and precipitation have a significant impact on wine production in cool-climate countries, highlighting the need for adaptation strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. This research contributes to the understanding of how climate change is reshaping the global wine sector, emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices and resilience in the face of environmental challenges.

Impacts du changement climatique sur les pays producteurs de vin situés au nord de la ceinture viticole

Le changement climatique pose des défis importants au secteur mondial du vin, les pays à climat frais étant particulièrement vulnérables à ses effets. La recherche utilise une analyse de données de panel pour étudier l’impact du changement climatique sur l’industrie du vin dans 66 pays, en se concentrant sur 11 pays à climat frais situés au nord de la ceinture viticole dans l’hémisphère nord. En utilisant des données de l’oiv, de la fao et des statistiques climatiques du portail de connaissances sur le changement climatique de la banque mondiale couvrant la période 1961-2020, la recherche examine la relation entre la température, les précipitations et la production de vin. L’étude estime une fonction de production de vin pour évaluer l’influence du changement climatique sur l’industrie, en tenant compte de variables telles que le réchauffement planétaire, le changement climatique et les ruptures structurelles dans le nouveau monde viticole et les pays à climat frais. Les résultats suggèrent que les changements de température et de précipitations ont un impact significatif sur la production de vin dans les pays à climat frais, soulignant la nécessité de stratégies d’adaptation pour atténuer les effets négatifs du changement climatique. Cette recherche contribue à la compréhension de la manière dont le changement climatique remodèle le secteur mondial du vin, en soulignant l’importance des pratiques durables et de la résilience face aux défis environnementaux.

Auswirkungen des klimawandels auf die weinerzeugerländer nördlich des weingürtels

Der klimawandel stellt den globalen weinsektor vor erhebliche herausforderungen, wobei die länder mit kühlem klima besonders anfällig für seine auswirkungen sind. Die untersuchung nutzt eine paneldatenanalyse, um die auswirkungen des klimawandels auf die weinindustrie in 66 ländern zu untersuchen, wobei der schwerpunkt auf 11 ländern mit kühlem klima liegt, die nördlich des weingürtels in der nördlichen hemisphäre liegen. Unter verwendung von daten der oiv, der fao und klimastatistiken aus dem climate change knowledge portal der weltbank für den zeitraum von 1961 bis 2020 untersucht die studie die beziehung zwischen temperatur, niederschlag und weinproduktion. Die studie schätzt eine weinproduktionsfunktion, um den einfluss des klimawandels auf die branche zu bewerten, wobei variablen wie die globale erwärmung, der klimawandel und strukturbrüche in der neuen weinwelt und in ländern mit kühlem klima berücksichtigt werden. Die ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass temperatur- und niederschlagsveränderungen einen erheblichen einfluss auf die weinproduktion in ländern mit kühlem klima haben, was die notwendigkeit von anpassungsstrategien zur abschwächung der negativen auswirkungen des klimawandels unterstreicht. Diese forschungsarbeit trägt zum verständnis der auswirkungen des klimawandels auf den globalen weinsektor bei und unterstreicht die bedeutung nachhaltiger praktiken und der widerstandsfähigkeit angesichts der ökologischen herausforderungen.

Mineral-wine profile and AI: wine authentication and identification

Enhancing the mineral wine profile: from authentication to identification by artificial intelligence for enhanced security. Analysis of a wine’s mineral concentration profile provides a distinctive fingerprint for each cuvée. Unlike organic profiles, this identification signature remains stable over time and can be deciphered using direct analysis by inductively coupled mass spectrometry (icp-ms).

Sensory study of potential kokumi compounds in wine 

Kokumi is a complex sensation perceived as enhanced palatability. Under the influence of kokumi substances, foods/beverages tastes become more flavorful with increased intensity, spread, continuity, richness, harmony, and punch which are the six related characteristics corresponding to the kokumi sensory concept (Yamamoto & Inui-Yamamoto 2023).

Physical-chemical and sensory characterization of wine made with the cultivar syrah produced in a double pruning system

In recent years, the consumption of fine wines in Brazil has increased significantly, a phenomenon that is also reflected in the expansion of production to new regions. In the brazilian southeast for example, the so-called “winter wines” are being produced, through management in two cycles, one of formation and one of production, with two prunings and one harvest per year, a technique known as double pruning, with vineyards established at altitudes close to or above 1,000 m above sea level.

Sustainability as system innovation: sustainability as system innovation: a returnable system for glass wine bottles

Introduction increasing sustainability is essential and a societal challenge, requiring fundamental changes in behaviour and attitudes. This applies to both producers and consumers. For the wine industry in particular, such a change is a major challenge. An eip-agri research project is evaluating the introduction of a returnable glass system in the german wine industry as a key solution for increasing sustainability. Given the need for change associated with a returnable system, the project is theoretically grounded in systems innovation, as this approach provides solutions for complex, transformative change.

Role of PH and its management during vinification on the extraction during maceration and on the evolution during ageing of the phenolic compounda of red wine

Climatic changes cause significant variations in the composition of grapes. for red grapes, a mismatch between phenolic and technological ripening is often observed. There is also often a marked increase in pH and a reduction in fixed acids, which affect the stability and evolution of the wine during ageing. These experiments will provide more information on the role of pH during the winemaking of red wines on the extraction and evolution of phenolic compounds.
