Influenza di alcuni aspetti ambientali sul contenuto di stilbeni nel vino nell’area della DOC “Sangiovese di Romagna” (Italia)

Abstract

[English version below]

Nell’ambito della zonazione della Doc “Sangiovese di Romagna” sono stati descritti 25 siti sperimentali, aventi diversa origine geologica, in cui è stato individuato un vigneto omogeneo per la determinazione dei principali parametri viticoli ed enologici. In seguito è stato analizzato il contenuto di stilbeni nei vini al fine di approfondirne il legame con le caratteristiche geopedologiche. Lo studio descrive la relazione positiva tra l’altitudine e il contenuto di trans-piceide nelle province di Forlì e Ravenna e di trans-resveratrolo a Ravenna. I suoli con maggiore calcare attivo hanno fornito vini più ricchi in stilbeni.

The “Sangiovese di Romagna” zoning characterized 25 sites, based on a different geological origin. For each site, a representative commercial vineyard was chosen and the main viticultural and oenological parameters were recorded. The wine stilbene content was analyzed to investigate the effect of the geological origin and the soil composition. Positive relations between site elevation and trans-resveratrol and site elevation and trans-piceid were observed in the Ravenna and, Forlì and Ravenna area, respectively. The higher the active lime in the soils the richer the stilbenes in the wines.

Hanseniaspora in wine-making: their genetic modification and potential role in acid modulation

Hanseniaspora spp. are one of the most common yeast isolates in vineyards and wineries and play an important role in wine-making.

Measuring elemental sulfur in grape juice in relation to varietal thiol formation in Sauvignon blanc wines.

Aim: Sauvignon blanc displays a range of styles that can include prominent tropical and passionfruit aromas. Both sensory evaluation and chemical analysis have confirmed the above-average presence of ‘varietal thiols’ in the Sauvignon blanc wines from Marlborough, New Zealand.

Measurement of grape vine growth for model evaluation

Within a research project for simulating the nitrogen turnover in vineyard soils and the nitrogen uptake by the grape vine, a previously developed plant growth model (Nendel and Kersebaum 2004) had to be evaluated. A dataset was obtained from a monitoring experiment at three vineyard sites with different soil types, conducted in the years 2003 and 2004.

Rootstock drought tolerance under dry-farmed conditions in Oregon’s Willamette Valley

Rootstocks are used in vineyards worldwide and have been the focus of many studies. However, rootstock performance varies based on regional climates and soil types. As Oregon experiences warmer seasons and variable precipitation patterns, growers are interested in rootstocks with more drought tolerance than the commonly planted rootstocks: 3309C, Riparia Gloire, and 101-14 Mgt. In Oregon’s Willamette Valley, annual precipitation is typically sufficient to make dry-farming possible and use of irrigation is limited.
