Climatic influences on Mencía grapevine phenology and grape composition for Amandi (Ribeira Sacra, Spain)

Abstract

During the year 2009 we have studied the phenology and grape composition of Mencía cultivar in seven different situations (orientation and altitude) for Amandi subzone (D.O. Ribeira Sacra, Spain). The results showed the influence of terroir on the Mencía growth stages (budburst, floraison, veraison, and harvest). All phenological data indicate that there is a delay in budburst for V-2 of 15 days respect to V-5 and V-6. A delay for floraison also was found for V-2 and V-3 (8 days respect to the others vineyards). In the veraison the delay was for V-1 and V-2 (3 days) respect to other vineyards studied. Significant differences were found in grape composition: total acidity, pH, malic acid, color intensity and anthocyanins. The volatiles also were influenced by the terroir, showed higher concentration of free compounds for V-2 (416 and SW) than the others vineyards and the total bound composition shower the highest values for V-4.

Automated red microvinification (1kg) adapted to the needs of varietal innovation

The creation of disease-resistant varieties adapted to climate change is a key challenge for the future of the wine industry. At present, the selection of these new varieties is essentially based on screening for genetic markers of resistance and agronomic criteria, due to the small number of vines available per genotype. Integrating screening for oenological criteria into the early stages of selection would speed up this process.

Biotic and abiotic factors affecting physiological aspects underlying vegetative vigour in two commercial grapevine varieties

Grapevine vigour, defined as the propensity to assimilate, store and/or use non-structural sugars for allowing fast growth of shoots and producing large canopies[1], is crucial to optimize vineyard management. Recently, a model has been proposed for predicting the vigor of young grapevines through the measurement of the vegetative growth and physiological parameters, such as water status and gas exchange[2]. Our objectives were (1) to explore the influence of the association of two grapevine varieties (Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon, grafted onto R110 rootstocks) with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the vegetative vigour of young plants; and (2) to assess the effect of environmental factors linked to climate change on the vegetative vigour of Cabernet Sauvignon.
