Il monitoraggio meteorologico come strumento per la gestione della variabilità climatica in Franciacorta

Abstract

[English version below]

Nel 2007 è stata avviata una ricerca nell’areale di produzione del Franciacorta DOCG che ha riguardato un ampio numero di vigneti di Chardonnay con riferimento ai quali sono stati acquisite le serie storiche dal 2001 relative a (i) decorso delle epoche fenologiche, (ii) curve di maturazione e (iii) dati prodotti dalla rete meteorologica consortile. Tali dati hanno permesso di produrre un modello empirico agrofenologico relativo allo Chardonnay nell’areale considerato e di calibrare e validare un modello meccanicistico di simulazione della produttività primaria, chiamato SIM_PP.

In 2007 a research was started on an high number of vineyards in the Franciacorta AOC area. From 2001 to 2009, phonological stages records and ripening kinetics data were collected. Starting from phenological data, an empiric agrophenological model was build, in order to estimate principal stages by using daily cumulated temperature. Furthermore, ripening kinetics were compared to mechanicistic model simulations (SIM_PP, Mariani and Maugeri, 2002). Starting from air daily temperatures, SIM_PP simulates the Net Primary Production, allocation dynamics in sink organs and the sugars storage in berries, using a mechanism based on transpiration and mass transport flux.
The comparison between real in-field situation and gathered simulations allowed to evaluate mechanicistic and empirical models performance.

Influence of vine spacing on water status, productivity, yield and must composition in Tempranillo grapevine under Duero Valley zone conditions

L’objectif de cette étude est analyser l’influence de la densité de plantation sur l’état hydrique (potentiel hydrique), le comportement productif (matière sèche et rendement) et la expression qualitative (poids de baie, degrée Brix, pH, acidité totale, concentration polyphénolique) de la varieté Tempranillo dans la Vallée du Douro, à l’A.O. Cigales.

Aromatic characterization of Moscato Giallo by GC-MS/MS and stable isotopic ratio analysis of the major volatile compounds

Among the Moscato grapes, Moscato Giallo is a winegrape variety characterized by a high content of free and glycosylated monoterpenoids, which gives very aromatic wines. The aromatic bouquet of Moscato Giallo is strongly influenced by the high concentration of linalool, geraniol, linalool oxides, limonene, α-terpineol, citronellol, HO-trienol, HO-diols, 8-Hydroxylinalool, geranic acid and β-myrcene, that give citrus, rose, and peach notes.

Applications of FTIR microspectroscopy in oenology: shedding light on Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall composition and autolytic capacity

Many microbial starters for the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation processes are commercially available, indicated for diverse wine styles and quality goals. The screening protocols cover a wide range of oenologically relevant features, although some characteristics could also be studied using underexplored powerful techniques. In this study, we applied Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy [1,2] to compare the cell wall biochemical composition and monitor the autolytic process in several wine strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Can varietal ‘apricot’ aroma of Viognier wine be controlled with clonal selection and harvest timing?

Recent wine-like reconstitution sensory studies confirmed that several monoterpenes were the key aroma compounds in the perception of an ‘apricot’ aroma attribute in Viognier wine.

S. CEREVISIAE AND O. ŒNI BIOFILMS FOR CONTINUOUS ALCOHOLIC AND MALOLACTIC FERMENTATIONS IN WINEMAKING

Biofilms are sessile microbial communities whose lifestyle confers specific properties. They can be defined as a structured community of bacterial cells enclosed in a self-produced polymeric matrix and adherent to a surface and considered as a method of immobilisation. Immobilised microorganisms offer many advantages for industrial processes in the production of alcoholic beverages and specially increasing cell densities for a better management of fermentation rates.
