Etude des effets millésime, situation et sol à partir d’un observatoire du Gamay en beaujolais

Abstract

Des expérimentations sur Gamay ont été réalisées en Beaujolais de 2000 à 2006 sur 10 parcelles d’AOC différentes. De nombreuses mesures ont été effectuées à différents stades (vigne, baies récoltées, vinification et bouteille avec ou sans vieillissement). Ces mesures sont également de natures différentes (données phénologiques, analytiques, dégustation). Des analyses de la composition des sols sont également disponibles. Des travaux d’analyse de données ont permis d’effectuer une analyse exploratoire de la base de données afin de déterminer et quantifier les effets de divers facteurs (parcelle, millésime) sur certains des paramètres mesurés au cours du procédé de vinification. Ces effets ont également été mis en relation avec l’analyse des sols.

Les résultats confirment l’effet important du millésime. Une typologie des millésimes se dégage grâce aux outils utilisés. Un fort effet parcelle est également mis en évidence. Une corrélation existe entre couleur et acidité. Il est vérifié que la variable de rendement n’est pas responsable de l’effet parcelle pour les témoins. L’effet parcelle est en partie bien expliqué par la précocité, liée en général à l’altitude et au climat. Par contre cet effet est peu expliqué par le type d’AOC. La typologie de composition des sols présente un lien avec le type d’AOC. Les Beaujolais-Villages présentent notamment une bonne homogénéité. La composition des sols semble avoir peu d’impact sur le raisin et le vin produits sur les témoins.

English version: From 2000 to 2006 an important study was carried out on 10 plots in different Beaujolais AOC. Numerous measures were made at different stages (vine, must, vinification) with different nature (phenology, chemical, sensorial analysis). Data analysis have allowed to determine and quantify factor effects such as situation or vintage on wine characteristics. Soil analysis were also used in this study.

Results confirm important effect of vintage and it is possible to classify the different vintages with statistic tools used in this study. An important situation effect, independent of yield, was also highlighted. This effect is well explained by earliness but poorly by AOC. A strong correlation exists between wine color and acidity. There is a good relation between soil type and AOC, particularly with Beaujolais-Villages. But soil composition seems to have a weak influence on grape and wine characteristics.

Brown Marmorated Stink Bug taint in grape must and wine: time evolution of trans-2-decenal

The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB, Halyomorpha halys Stal) is an invasive pentatomid native to eastern Asia that is spreading rapidly worldwide, notably through human-mediated activities. Globally, it was reported in the USA, Canada, Italy, Hungary, and other European countries. BMSB has a broad host range that includes over 170 plants, many of agricultural importance, including various fruit, vegetables, row crops, and ornamentals. When present in the vineyard, the pest can affect yield and quality by directly feeding on berries resulting in fruit collapse and necrosis. Additional damage occurs when BMSB are carried into the winery within the grape clusters. The presence of BMSB during wine processing can affect juice and wine quality through the release of volatile compounds produced as a stress response. The major secretes compounds are tridecane and trans-2-decenal. Tridecane is an odorless compound and its effect on wine quality is currently unknown. Trans-2-decenal is an unsaturated aldehyde considered to be the main component of BMSB taint with strong green, coriander, and musty-like aromas. Its threshold value in wine was estimated at about 5 µg/L.

Spectral discrimination between Vitis vinifera and labrusca by spectroradiometric techniques

Brazil is one of the few countries where vineyards of Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera coexist in the same geographical spaces, due to complex processes of territorial occupation by successive waves of European settlers.

Predictive Breeding for Wine Quality: From Sensory Traits to Grapevine Genome

New pathogen resistant varieties allow an efficient and greatly reduced use of fungicides. These new varieties promise, therefore, an enormous potential to reach the European Green Deal aim of a 50% reduction of pesticides in EU agriculture by 2030.

Lead levels in fortified wines

AIM The main lead exposure route is the intake of contaminated food, water, and alcoholic beverages, in particular wine. At the gastric level, Pb is transformed into a soluble compound which, when conveyed into the bloodstream, is the long-term cause of saturnism, intoxication with neurotoxic, nephrotoxic and hematopoietic effects, and with the neurological developmental delay of children. Pb is classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a 2A class, possible carcinogenic to humans. In an opinion on possible health risks, CONTAM considered that cereals, vegetables, drinking water, and wine give a greater contribute to dietary exposure to Pb in Europe. Large quantities of wine, beer, and other alcoholic products drinking can increase daily Pb intake above the maximum permitted levels.
