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

Wine growing has proven to be a development opportunity for agribusiness in several new regions of brazil, including the federal district. There are more than ten existing wineries, established in the last five years. Through the double pruning system, which consists of trimming the growing shoots in the summer and positioning the ripening of the fruits in a cooler period of the season, the grapes are sought to ripen more completely. The syrah variety has shown excellent adaptation to this cycle management model.

Moderate wine consumption – with the meals – represents one of the beneficial components of the traditional mediterranean diet (med diet) and a positive item in the med diet score [1,2, 3]. The med diet is considered one of the best diets in the world and the world health organisation (who) identified this eating pattern as an effective strategy to prevent non-communicable diseases (ncd), since it is associated with lower disease occurrence and all-cause mortality [4] . Numerous well-conducted epidemiological studies have also reported that light-to-moderate intake of wine/alcoholic beverages is not only related to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, but also to all-cause mortality.

The production of certified grape planting material is one of the most important problems in the Russian federation. According to the scheme for the production of healthy grape planting material, before being introduced into in vitro culture, the source plants of each variety (Moldova, Augustin, Bart) were individually assessed for typical varietal characteristics and the presence/absence of symptoms of infection by pests.

In recent years, the consumption of alcoholic beverages is changing, driven by evolving consumer preferences and societal trends, including a wave of health consciousness. Among these changes, the emergence and proliferation of nolo (no alcohol/low alcohol) alcoholic beverages have gained significant attention within the industry. Nolo alcohol beverages are produced to emulate the appearance, aroma, and taste of alcoholic beverages, potentially facilitating a sense of social integration when consuming a product that closely resembles alcohol.

The capture and valorization of fermentative CO2 have been developed for several years by the company w platform for internal uses, notably in the cellars: inerting, cooling, reduction of water consumption, extraction, with aroma valorization. In a context of climatic warming during the vegetative cycle, grapes are currently harvested with a significant sugar concentration, a phenomenon that is expected to intensify in the coming decades. The high alcohol content of the resulting wines goes against the demand of customers who are seeking high-quality wines with less alcohol.
