Arsenic in berries and its correlation with natural soil content: experience in Trentino (Italy)

Abstract

[English version below]

Il lavoro presenta l’evoluzione dei contenuti di arsenico nelle uve durante lo sviluppo e la maturazione, e la sua distribuzione nell’acino; verifica inoltre la relazione tra i contenuti di As nelle uve, nelle foglie e nei suoli caratterizzati da una dotazione differente e naturale di questo elemento.
Nella bacca l’arsenico cresce durante la stagione vegetativa e a maturazione è localizzato nella polpa (50%), nella buccia (40%) e in minima parte nei semi.
La correlazione tra i contenuti di As nelle bacche raccolte in 18 vigneti, nelle corrispondenti foglie e nei rispettivi suoli estratti con acetato di ammonio risulta statisticamente significativa.

The work illustrates arsenic content in grapes during development and ripening and its distribution in the berry, together with the relationship between As content in grape berries, leaves and soils where this element is naturally present in different amounts.
Arsenic increases in the berry during the growing season and is located in the pulp (50%), the skin (40%) and to a lesser extent in the seeds in ripe berries.
The correlation between the As content in berries collected in 18 vineyards and in the corresponding leaves and soils, extracted using ammonium acetate, is statistically significant.

Shoot positioning: effect on physiological, vegetative and reproductive parameters

[English version below]

On a étudié durant deux saisons de croissance (2002/2003 et 2003/2004) l’effet de l’orientation vertical des rameaux sur les paramètres physiologiques, végétatifs et reproductifs dans la région de Stellenbosch dans un vignoble du cépage Merlot sur 99 R conduite à espalier et taillé a cordon coursonné. Les vignes étaient espacées 2.7 x 1.5 m. L’irrigation a été appliquée quand la baie avait la dimension d’un pois et a la véraison.

Le pays du Brulhois

Depuis un an, nous essayons de mettre en place un projet de développement socio-économique et culturel d’une zone située essentiellement au sud de la Garonne et à cheval sur 3 départements (le Lot et Garonne, le Gers et le Tam et Garonne) et sur 2 régions (l’Aquitaine et Midi Pyrénées): le pays du Brulhois, “porte de la Gascogne”.

IMPACT OF METSCHNIKOWIA PULCHERRIMA DURING FERMENTATION ON AROMATIC PROFILE OF VIDAL BLANC ICEWINE

Non-Saccharomyces yeasts not only increase microbial diversity during wine fermentation, but also have a positive effect on improving wine aroma. Among these non-Saccharomyces yeast species, Metschnikowia pulcherrima is often studied and used in winemaking in recent years, but its application in icewine has been rarely reported. In this study, indigenous M. pulcherrima strains and Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains (commercial and indigenous strains) were sequentially inoculated for icewine fermentations; meanwhile, pure S. cerevisiae fermentations were used as the control; indigenous strains used above were screened from spontaneous fermentations of Vidal blanc icewine.

Historical reconquest of hillslopes by the “Vins des Abymes” after the collapse of Mont Granier in 1248 (Savoie, France)

The vineyards extending between the hillslopes of ‘Apremont’ and ‘Les Marches’ that dominate the valley of Chambéry (Savoie, French Alps) define the terroir of the ‘Vins des Abymes’.
