Rapporti tra diverse tipologie di terreno e risposte produttive e qualitative delle uve Merlot e Carmenère nell’area DOC Piave

Abstract

[English version below]

Da anni la ricerca viticola sta orientando le sue attenzioni verso lo studio della vocazionalità degli ecosistemi viticoli, perché fulcro della produttività della vite e qualità dei suoi frutti. Dal 2007 anche l’area a DOC del Piave, situata nella parte orientale della regione Veneto, è oggetto di uno specifico studio.
Il lavoro ha messo a confronto due diverse tipologie di suolo, uno a tessitura fine (limoso –argilloso) più a sud dell’area DOC Piave e l’altro a tessitura più grossolana (ghiaioso –ciottoloso) nella zona più a nord. Entrambe le varietà coltivate erano allevate a Sylvoz, innestate su Kober 5BB. Lo studio ha verificato nella bacca il contenuto di sostanze coloranti, il contenuto in solidi solubili, dell’acidità totale, del pH oltre ai parametri produttivi e vegetativi quali: n° grappoli/vite, produzione uva/vite, peso medio del grappolo e il legno di potatura.
I risultati ottenuti nel triennio, hanno permesso di evidenziare come le caratteristiche del terreno abbiano influenzato nettamente sia le rese produttive sia la qualità delle uve. Qualità che per la varietà Merlot è stata superiore nei suoli limoso – argillosi, al contrario il Carmenère ha trovato il miglior adattamento nei suoli ghiaioso – ciottolosi. L’analisi sensoriale ha confermato i dati analitici del Merlot ma non pienamente quelli del Carmenère.

Giving the important effects of the environmental factors on the vine productivity and grape quality, a branch of viticulture research has been focusing on the relation between vines and their ecosystems for years.
The DOC Piave area, located in the eastern part of the Veneto region, was the object of a specific zoning study from 2007 to 2009.
The study compared two different types of soils, one located in the Southern part of the DOC Area has clay-loam texture, the other located further Nord has a gravelly texture. For both varieties the trellising system was Sylvoz and the vines were grafted on Kober 5bb. Sugar accumulation, pigments amount, total acidity and pH were determined along with vegetative and productive parameters.
The results confirmed that there exist a close relationship between soil and grape quality, but each variety responds in a different way: Merlot had the most interesting quality when grown clay-loam soils, while a different behaviour was found in Carmenere. The wine sensory score confirmed the grape analysis for Merlot, but only partially for Carmenere.

BIOPROTECTION BY ADDING NON-SACCHAROMYCES YEASTS : ADVANCED RESEARCH ON THIS PROMISING ALTERNATIVE TO SO₂

Sulphur dioxide has been used for many years for its antimicrobial, antioxidant and antioxydasic properties in winemaking but nowadays, it is a source of controversy. Indeed, consumers are more attentive to the naturalness of their foods and beverages and the legislation is changing to reduce the total SO₂ levels allowed in wines. To limit and replace the doses of sulphur dioxide applied, winemakers can now use bioprotection consisting in live yeast addition as alternative,seems to be promising. This process, lightly used in from the food industry, allows to colonize the environment and limit the development or even eliminate undesirable microorganisms without altering the sensory properties of the product.

Assessing the benefits of irrigation access: the case of Southern France vineyards

Agriculture worldwide is threatened by climate change. In particular, declining water resource availability combined with increasing water demand is a key challenge in many rainfed areas, where irrigation appears to be a straightforward adaptation option. In this context, assessing the impacts of irrigation adoption on farm yields and incomes is a necessary step to reflect on the impact of both ex-post and ex-ante policies.

Apports des mesures de résistivité électrique du sol dans les études sur le fonctionnement de la vigne et dans la spatialisation parcellaire

La mesure de la résistivité électrique des sols est une technique non destructive, spatialement intégrante, utilisée depuis peu en viticulture. L’utilisation d’appareils de mesures performant et de logiciels adaptés permet de traiter les données afin de pouvoir visualiser en deux ou trois dimensions les variations de textures ou d’humidité d’un sol.
