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.

Supramolecular approaches to the study of the astringency elicited by wine phenolic compounds

The objective of this study is to review the scientific evidences and to advance into the knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of astringency. Astringency has been described as the drying, roughing and puckering sensation perceived when some food and beverages are tasted (1). The main, but possibly not the only, mechanism for the astringency is the precipitation of salivary proteins (2,3). Between phenolic compounds found in red wines, flavan-3-ols are the group usually related to the development of this sensation. Other compounds, phenolic or not, like anthocyanins, polysaccharides and mannoproteins could act modifying or modulating astringency perception by hindering the interaction between flavanols and salivary proteins either because of their interaction with the flavanols or because of their interaction with the salivary proteins.
