The characteristics of strong territorial brands: the case of Champagne

Abstract

While most brands belong to individual enterprises, some brands belong to groups of enterprises based in a single territory. This conceptual paper examines the characteristics of these territorial brands using the lens of the wine of Champagne in France. Employing a series of past studies the paper first explores the nature of the territorial brand (including its overarching nature and emergent development), then develops an analysis of the preconditions for a strong territorial brand. The proposition is that these include a specific type of brand manager, a strong willingness to co-operate, a common mythology and local engagement. The paper is significant as it considers territorial goods rather than services such as tourism.

Timing of leaf removal effects on vitis vinifera L. Cv. Grenache differed on two contrasting seasons

Warming trends over the winegrowing regions lead to an advance of grapevine phenology, diminution of yield and increased sugar content and must pH with a lower polyphenol content, especially anthocyanins. Canopy management practices are applied to control the source sink balance and improve the cluster microclimate to enhance berry composition. We hyphothesized that an early leaf removal might promote a delayed ripening through severe defoliation after fruitset; whereas, a late leaf removal at mid-ripening would reduce sugar accumulation.
