Application de l’Analyse du Cycle de Vie (ACV) à un domaine viticole

Résumé

L’Analyse du Cycle de Vie (ACV) est une méthode multicritère qui permet de quantifier les impacts environnementaux associés à l’activité d’une entreprise sur l’ensemble de son cycle de vie et de guider les choix en vue de l’écoconception. Elle inclut par exemple des indicateurs liés aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre et à la capture de carbone, aux émissions de particules fines, à la consommation d’énergie ou à la pollution des eaux. Appliquée au domaine viticole du Château de l’Eclair, elle permet de renseigner sur les sources de pollutions les plus importantes de l’entreprise, mais aussi plus généralement de la filière. Les résultats permettent de mettre en évidence le poids important de la fabrication des bouteilles en verre dans le bilan environnemental du vin sur un grand nombre d’indicateurs, dont l’empreinte carbone. Toutefois, la mise en place d’un enherbement de l’inter-rang et le retour au sol des sarments à la vigne, permet d’après la modélisation, de séquestrer environ un quart des émissions de gaz à effet de serre de la production de vin. Les résultats montrent également le gain environnemental du passage en agriculture biologique sur l’indicateur écotoxicité de l’eau douce.

Application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method to a French winery

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a multi-criteria method for quantifying the environmental impacts associated with a company’s activity, and for guiding choices with a view to eco-design. It includes, for example, indicators relating to greenhouse gas emissions and carbon storage, fine particle emissions, energy consumption and water pollution. Applied to a winery, it provides information on the most significant sources of pollution for the company, but also more generally for the industry. The results show that the manufacture of glass bottles contributes significantly to the environmental impact of wine on many indicators, including the carbon footprint. However, the introduction of inter-row grassing and the return to the soil of vine shoots, according to the model, sequesters around a quarter of the greenhouse gas emissions from wine production. The results also show the environmental benefits of switching to organic farming in terms of freshwater ecotoxicity.

Validation of a method for the determination of volatile compounds in in spirituous beverages using contained ethanol as a reference substance

The results of experimental studies of the method based on the usage of ethyl alcohol as an internal standard for the direct determination of volatile compounds in wines and others alcohol contained products are presented. The method was validated in terms of precision, accuracy, limits of detection and quantification (lod and loq), linearity, and robustness.

Mousy off-flavor detection: a rapid LCMS/MS method

These days, consumers are interested in food products linked to the environment and the concept of naturalness. They prefer “free” products, such as those with no pesticide residues or no added sulfur dioxide (so2) in wines. In fact, so2 is the most widely used preservative in winemaking, as it has multiple properties at low cost: it is antioxidant, antioxidasic and antimicrobial.

Innovative sparkling wines, traditional grape varieties and autochthonous yeasts: emerging trends for regional products diversification

Italy, like all the major vine-growing and wine-producing countries, has experienced a decline in wine export volumes in recent years.

Plastid genomics of Vitis vinifera L. for understanding the molecular basis of  grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) domestication

The precise molecular mechanisms underlying the domestication of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) Are still not fully understood. In the recent years, next-generation sequencing (NGS) of plastid genomes has emerged as a powerful and increasingly effective tool for plant phylogenetics and evolution. To uncover the biological profile of the grapevine domestication process comprehensively, an investigation should encompass both the cultivated varieties (V. vinifera subsp. Vinifera) and their wild ancestors V. vinifera subsp. Sylvestris) across all potential sites of their distribution and domestication.

Enological technics to enhance the aromatic qualities of white spirits 

Eugenol has been identified as a quality marker in armagnac white spirits. In particular, those produced from the Baco blanc variety, the only hybrid variety authorised in a French PDO, bred since 1898 from noah (vitis labrusca x v.riparia) and folle blanche (v. Vinifera). The varietal compound of Baco blanc, eugenol has many original properties.
