Valutazione dell’equilibrio vegeto-produttivo con metodiche di proximal sensing

Abstract

Nel biennio 2008-2009, nell’ambito di un progetto multidisciplinare coordinato e finanziato dal Consorzio Tuscania, 4 vigneti in differenti zone della Toscana sono stati monitorati con strumenti di proximal sensing al fine di valutare la variabilità riscontrabile e ottenere delle indicazioni sulle risposte vegetative delle piante e quanti-qualitative delle produzioni. La creazione di mappe di NDVI (uno degli indici di vegetazione più comunemente utilizzati) e di spessore delle chiome (CT, derivato dalla lettura dei sensori ad ultrasuoni), ha permesso di evidenziare nette differenze tra i vigneti studiati e all’interno dei singoli appezzamenti, oltre ad una forte influenza temporale sulle caratteristiche delle chiome; tali evidenze sono state confermate da un’analisi della varianza multivariata. I dati rilevati sono stati correlati con alcuni indici comunemente utilizzati per la valutazione vegeto-produttiva delle piante ottenendo delle correlazioni significative, a conferma della validità dei rilievi effettuati e del loro possibile utilizzo come metodo di monitoraggio della situazione esistente in vigneto e di supporto nei processi decisionali

English version: In 2008, collaborating with Tuscania Consortium, Ibimet of Florence and IASMA, a research was started with the aim of understanding and monitoring existing variability in vineyards and, basing on it, evaluating agronomical practices useful for qualitative and quantitative responses optimization. With this purpose, some experimental parcels were chosen in 4 different Sangiovese and Cabernet S. vineyards placed in 3 areas of Tuscany. Parcels were made by the use of different canopy management techniques in various vigour zones. In established periods (fruit setting, veraison and before technological maturity) some instrumental records were made, using ATV mounted optical and ultrasonic sensors; at the same time, indirect measurements of leaf surface and a Point Quadrat were performed. Statistical analysis allowed to validate instrumental relives and to underline the capability of the system of surveying both spatial and temporal variability both an artificial one, made by agronomical practices.

The interaction between wine polyphenolic classes and poly-L-proline is impacted by oxygen

Oxygen plays a key role in the evolution of wine chemistry, within the non-volatile matrix. Polyphenol composition and structure, as well as the process of tannin polymerisation are directly impacted by oxidation, and this can occur during both fermentation and ageing.

Fleurtai, Soreli and Tocai Friulano: perspectives for quality integration of wine together with protection of the DOCG Lison Classico appellation

In modern viticulture, sustainability must be considered not only into the winery, but in the vineyard as well, being that with the most attentive interventions in order to protect the environment. In this context, the new “fungi resistant” varieties represent a valid option for reducing the negative environmental impact of agrochemicals used in viticulture, including those ones used in organic farming (given the copper accumulation into soils). Several application studies have demonstrated the enological validity of many resistant varieties, both in price and as a blend. Also, under the production point of view, the feasibility and economical sustainability of the new resistant varieties was verified. The aim of this work was to deepen the knowledge on the organoleptic characteristics of wines obtained from the Fleurtai and Soreli varieties and to compare them with the wine obtained from Tocai Friulano, the mother variety in the area destined for the production of the Lison Classico DOCG appellation. The purpose of the work is then to verify the possibility of introducing resistant varieties into the DOCG while maintaining the wine name of the appellation linked to the territory.
