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.

Caractérisation des productions vitivinicoles des terroirs du Barolo (Piemonte, Italie)

Le projet “Caractérisation des productions vitivinicoles du Barolo” est né par la volonté de la Région Piémont de créer une équipe multidisciplinaire de recherche pour l’individuation des différences

NAVIC–20 years of a lean management model for wine business R&D

Considering That Innovation Supports A Company’s Competitive Advantage And Drive Higher Profits (Dogru A. & Peyrette J., 2022), A Key Challenge Of Wine Companies Is Getting Practitioners To Understand That Innovation-Related Wine Research Increases The Likelihood Of Competitive Advantage, Bringing Financial Success. A Continued And Enhanced Investment In Research Is, Thus, A Prerequisite For Commercial Success In Today’s Globalized And Competitive Wine Industry (Høj P., Pretorius I.S., & Day R., 2003).

Antioxidant activity of grape seed and skin extract during ripening

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important physiological role in the body’s defense and being involved in numerous signaling pathways 1, 2. When the balance between oxidant and antioxidant species is altered in favor of ROS, oxidative stress is generated. In this condition the cells are damaged as the ROS oxidize important cellular components, such as proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and

VviSOC1a and VviAG1 act antagonistically in the regulation of flower formation

The SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS1 (SOC1) is a key floral activator that coordinates external and internal stimuli to ensure timely flowering. During early stages of flower formation, SOC1 represses floral organ identity genes such as AGAMOUS (AG) to prevent premature organ differentiation. In addition to floral organ specification, AG has been shown to regulate fleshy fruit expansion and ripening and, as such, is an important contributor to fruit quality traits. Currently, little is known about the function and gene regulatory network of the grapevine homologs VviSOC1a and VviAG1. As such, the aim of this study was to functionally characterise both genes by overexpressing them in tomato and performing phenotypic and gene expression studies.

Impact of closures on aroma of godello and torrontés white wines post-bottling

Aromatic composition contributes mainly to the quality aroma of white wine. A natural and gradual evolution of the aroma in the bottle occurs over storage with a very low oxygen content.
