Analyse climatique à l’échelle des Coteaux du Layon

Abstract

[English version below]

Les études d’impact du climat sur la vigne nécessite de descendre à des échelles très fines car les facteurs climatiques sont tributaires de la topographie, la végétation, les expositions … Dans le cadre du programme ANR-JC Terviclim, 22 capteurs ont été installés dans les vignobles des Coteaux du Layon afin de caractériser le climat particulier de ces terroirs. L’analyse des températures montre de fortes disparités entre les data loggers et pourtant situés parfois sur les mêmes parcelles ou sur des parcelles voisines. Les indices bioclimatiques tels les degrés jours sont également contrastés suivant la situation des capteurs sur les coteaux.

Climate impact studies on vine require downscaling because climatic factors depend on topography, vegetation, orientation …In the framework of the ANR-JC Terviclim, 22 data loggers were settled in the “Coteaux du Layon” vineyards to characterize the particular climate of these terroirs. Temperatures analysis shows strong disparities between data loggers locate on the same plots or on nearby plots. Bioclimatic index as growing degree days are also contrasting depending on the data loggers situation in the vineyard.

Da dove scaturisce tutto l’interesse attuale per il terroir? Si provi, per dare risposta a questo quesito, ad immaginare il vino avulso dalla sua dimensione territoriale. Cosa si otterrebbe? Un vino bianco, un vino rosso o quant’altro, ma comunque un prodotto privo di conno­tazione geografica, di premesse storiche, di radici tradizionali, di potere evocativo, di iden­tità e di personalità.
