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.

Effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace and must on sensory and chemical composition of white wines

AIM: The objective of this work is to study the effect of the addition of polysaccharides extracted for grape pomace by-products and musts on sensory and chemical composition of white wines. Much of the waste obtained in the wine sector is not used, and they can have some valuable compounds, such as the polysaccharides (PS).

HOW DOES ULTRASOUND TREATMENT AFFECT THE AGEING PROFILE OF AN ITALIAN RED WINE?

Many wine styles require moderate or extended ageing to ensure optimal consumer experience. However, few consumers have the interest or ability to age wine themselves, and holding wine in optimal conditions for extended periods is expensive for producers. A study was conducted on the use of ul-trasound energy on wine, with particular reference to its impact on sensory and chemical profiles. The OIV has authorised the use of ultrasound for processing crushed grapes (must) in Resolution OENO 616-2019, but not yet for finished wine1,2.
