Terroir or Tūrangawaewae? Expressing sense of place in an emerging New Zealand wine region

Wine storage ensuring the quality and correct aging is one of the issues that wineries, wine traders and consumers encounter after wine bottling.

Alcoholic fermentation plays a crucial role in the winemaking process. In addition to producing ethanol, it results in the formation of various secondary metabolites that significantly influence the wine’s characteristics.

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2025, Marine Morel (EGFV, Univ. Bordeaux, Bordeaux Sciences Agro, INRAE, ISVV, Villenave-d’Ornon, France) speaks about the role of rootstock and its genetic background in plant mineral status. This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on OENO One.

Aim: Temperature corresponds to one of the main terroir factors influencing grapevine physiology, primarily evidenced by its impact on phenology. Numerous studies have aimed at expressing time with thermal indices such as growing degree days (GDD) and have thus enabled a better modelling of grapevine responses to temperature. However, some works have highlighted the need to adapt

The SUSTAIN project aims at assessing the soil organic carbon (SOC) stock and vulnerability in vineyard soils under a climate change scenario.
