Wine industry, digital transformation, and sustainability: a systematic literature 

Abstract

This paper aims to (i) identify the state of the art regarding digital transformation in the transition to sustainability in the wine industry, (ii) analyze the adoption of digital technologies at different stages of the winemaking process and their contribution to the triple bottom line of sustainability, and (iii) present a research agenda that facilitates the development of the field, providing contributions to both literature and managerial practice. ◦design/methodology/approach this is an exploratory qualitative study applying a systematic literature review. The data analysis was conducted using a combination of two content analysis techniques: thematic analysis and frequency analysis. The search, conducted in December 2023, utilized the scopus and web of science databases. ◦findings this comprehensive review of 94 articles shows that digital transformation improves the winemaking process, boosting performance and sustainability. It highlights a broad industry transformation, integrating technologies like blockchain, decision support systems, and artificial intelligence, emphasizing its impact on economic, environmental, and social sustainability. Technologies and applications are evaluated in administration, wine manufacturing processes and consumer experience. The study also warns of risks like loss of authenticity and market share from incorrect technology implementation. ◦practical implications   the study highlights the strategic importance of digital transformation in sustainable business practices, addressing its impact on management and customer experience. It serves as a key guide for policymakers and industry leaders, linking technological advances with sustainability goals and illustrating how enhanced digital consumer experiences can increase public awareness and appreciation of sustainable practices.

Industria del vino, trasformazione digitale e sostenibilità: una revisione sistematica della letteratura

Questo articolo si propone di (i) identificare lo stato dell’arte riguardante la trasformazione digitale nella transizione alla sostenibilità nell’industria vinicola, (ii) analizzare l’adozione delle tecnologie digitali nelle diverse fasi del processo di vinificazione e il loro contributo alla tripla linea di fondo della sostenibilità, e (iii) presentare un’agenda di ricerca che faciliti lo sviluppo del campo, fornendo contributi sia alla letteratura che alla pratica manageriale. ◦ metodologia/approccio questo è uno studio qualitativo esplorativo che applica una revisione sistematica della letteratura. L’analisi dei dati è stata condotta utilizzando una combinazione di due tecniche di analisi dei contenuti: l’analisi tematica e l’analisi della frequenza. La ricerca, condotta nel dicembre 2023, ha utilizzato le basi di dati scopus e web of science. ◦ risultati questa revisione completa di 94 articoli dimostra che la trasformazione digitale migliora il processo di vinificazione, potenziando le prestazioni e la sostenibilità. Essa evidenzia una trasformazione ampia dell’industria, integrando tecnologie come blockchain, sistemi di supporto decisionale e intelligenza artificiale, sottolineando il suo impatto sulla sostenibilità economica, ambientale e sociale. Le tecnologie e le applicazioni sono valutate nell’amministrazione, nei processi di produzione del vino e nell’esperienza del consumatore. Lo studio avverte anche dei rischi come la perdita di autenticità e quote di mercato a causa di una implementazione tecnologica errata. ◦ implicazioni pratiche lo studio evidenzia l’importanza strategica della trasformazione digitale nelle pratiche commerciali sostenibili, affrontando il suo impatto sulla gestione e sull’esperienza del cliente. Funziona come una guida essenziale per i responsabili politici e i leader del settore, collegando i progressi tecnologici agli obiettivi di sostenibilità e illustrando come le esperienze digitali potenziate del consumatore possano aumentare la consapevolezza pubblica e l’apprezzamento delle pratiche sostenibili.

History of inorganic and isotopic signatures in Champagne over the last century: lessons

The notion of «terroir» refers to the link between the composition, quality and taste of a wine, on the one hand, and its place of origin, on the other. It involves, among other things, the signature of soil elements, as well as the influence of climatic conditions and plant material used. The composition of the wine is also influenced by the winemaking, storage and bottling processes. We were lucky enough to have a time series of the same champagne, from the end of the first world war to the present. On this exceptional time series, we followed, with the most advanced methods, all the elemental signatures by isotopic multi-dilution, the evolution of the isotopic ratios of heavy elements with very high precision of Sr, Pb, B and Cu.

Correction de la teneur en alcool des vins par évaporation partielle sous vide en cours de fermentation alcoolique

Climate change has become a reality that is becoming more and more apparent every day, with changes in the physico-chemical composition of grapes and an increase in the alcohol content of finished wines. These higher alcoholic degrees are not without consequences for the success of alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Correcting the alcohol content (-20% of the initial alcoholic strength) is also part of an approach designed to meet consumer expectations for healthier, lighter or lower-alcohol wines (9 to 13% vol.). Correcting the alcohol content of wines also rebalances the mouthfeel by reducing the alcohol’s burn.

Evolution of oak barrels C-glucosidic ellagitannins

During oak wood contact, wine undergoes important modifications that modulate its organoleptic quality and complexity, including its aroma, structure, astringency, bitterness and color. Vescalagin and castalagin are the two main C-glucosidic ellagitannins found in oak wood used for wine aging wood but lyxose/xylose derivatives (grandinin and roburin e) and dimeric forms (roburins a,b, c and d) are also present. The presence of several hydroxyl groups in the ortho-positions at the periphery of the structure of the ellagitannin isomers allows these molecules to undergo oxidation or condensation reactions with other compounds.

A new winemaking technology: fermentation, aging and bottling without added additives and preservatives

Auric infinity Technology introduces three new patented products designated for fermentation, aging and bottling without added additives and preservatives that have never been used in the winemaking industry.

Use of fumaric acid on must or during alcoholic fermentation

Fumaric acid has been approved by the OIV in 2021 for its application on wine to control the growth and activity of lactic acid bacteria. Fumaric acid is currently being evaluated by the OIV as an acidifier of must and wine. Investigations during the 2023 vintage provided further information on its use on must or during AF, thus completing information provided during the previous vintage.
