Le terre dei Lambruschi modenesi

Situated at the beginning of the 20th century on the territory of the Chablis municipality, delimited according to specialists of the time to plots of “kimmeridgian” origin, the vineyard producing Chablis

 Temperatures are increasing due to climate change leading to advances in grapevine phenology and sugar accumulation in grape berries.

The combination of Torulaspora delbrueckii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in co-inoculation and sequential inoculation in winemaking was investigated as an innovative strategy to increase the aromatic profile of wines like Verdeca and Nero di Troia wines, two traditional varieties from south-eastern Italy (Apulia Region).

In Portugal, and particularly in the Demarcated Region of Douro (DDR), wine production has a great tradition, producing the unique and worldwide famous Port wine as well as other remarkably good table wines. In this study the impact of projected climate change to wine production is analysed for the DDR. A statistical grapevine yield model (GYM) is developed using climate parameters as predictors.

Aim: Terroir is a French concept relating the qualities and quality of agricultural products to their physical and socio-cultural place of origin. It is increasingly used by business and policymakers as a marketing technique to provide economic benefits (e.g. Lenglet, 2014; Wine Australia, 2015), and to potentially preserve cultural heritage (e.g. Bauer, 2009) and the environment (e.g. Bowen, 2010)
