Studio dell’ambiente viticolo attraverso la parametrazione (punto di incrocio) delle curve di maturazione delle uve (pinot nero, oltrepo’ pavese pv italia settentrionale – 45° parallelo Nord)

Abstract

Sono stati presi in considerazione alcuni dati agrometeorologici dell’Oltrepò Pavese (temperature e piovosità degli ultimi 80 anni) e gli studi delle curve di maturazione condotti in zona sul Pinot nero da spumante negli anni (1988-1991, 1999-2000, 2006-2008), si nota che l’aumento progressivo negli anni delle temperature attive (indice di Winkler) ha determinato un anticipo dell’invaiatura, definita dal parametro “punto di incrocio” (intersezione delle funzioni di zuccheri ed acidità nel tempo), con conseguente anticipo della data di vendemmia di circa 12-15 gg.

English version: Some climate data of Oltrepò Pavese D.O.C. zone – 45° of latitude north, north-west Italy – (mainly temperature and rainfall of the last 80 years) and some studies of Pinot noir ripening are considered. An increase of the temperature (Winkler index, °C) has been recorded mainly in the last twenty years. According with this the date of the full veraison, pointed with the method of the cross point between the lines of sugar (°Brix) and total acidity (g/L), results anticipated of 15 days with vintage advance of about 12- 15 days.

PERCEPTUAL INTERACTIONS PHENOMENA INVOLVING VARIOUS VOLATILE COMPOUND FAMILIES LINKED TO SOME FRUITY NOTES IN BORDEAUX RED WINES

Fruity notes play a key role in the consumer’s appreciation of Bordeaux red wines. If literature provides a lot of knowledge about the nature of volatile compounds involved in this fruity expression, the sensory phenomena involving these compounds in mixture still need to be explored. Considering previous sensory works about the impact of esters and some overripening compounds, the goal of this work was to study the implication of perceptual interactions involving red wine odorant compounds of diverse origins and described as potentially affecting fruity aromatic expression.

Soil carbon changes and greenhouse gas emissions in vineyards – Is the 4 per 1000 goal realistic?

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2023, Hans Reiner Schultz (Hochschule Geisenheim University, Germany) speaks about soil carbon changes and greenhouse gas emissions in vineyards – is the 4 per 1000 goal realistic?. This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on OENO One.

Viticultural zoning in D.O.C. Ribeiro (Galicia, NW Spain)

L’AOC Ribeiro est la plus ancienne de Galice (NO de l’Espagne), avec une aire de production potentielle de 3.200 ha. Situé dans la région centrale de la vallée du Miño, le Ribeiro a un climat de tipe maritime tempéré qui se correspond avec la zone climatique II de Winkler.

Oak wood barrel tannin potential builds white wines oxidative stability and contributes to wine metabolomics fingerprint

Considerable advances have been made in the chemical characterization of wine metabolites through its holistic study using both targeted and untargeted metabolomics approach. The metabolite pool is subject to an intense molecular dialogue which reinforces the wine complexity even after bottling.

Non Saccharomyces wine yeasts: emerging trends and challenges in winemaking

In the past, the contribution of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in winemaking has always been considered negative for their limited enological attitude if compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In recent decades there has been a reevaluation of the role of non-Saccharomyces wine yeasts especially when used in combination and in support with S. cerevisiae (mixed fermentation). In this regard, selected non-Saccharomyces yeasts could be profitable used to give distinctive features, to enhance flavor and aroma complexity and to reduce the ethanol content of wines. Further emerging trends in the use of these yeasts are related to their role as bioprotectants and producers of health promoters compounds.
