La viticulture durable: concept et application aux terroirs viticoles

Abstract

Evoquer la notion de durabilité pour la vigne, plante multimillénaire, et le vin, tous deux intimement liés aux origines de notre civilisation, peut paraître un non-sens. Le vin revêt en effet une dimension culturelle, voire cultuelle intemporelle, qui recouvre tout à la fois les sciences, les savoir-faire ancestraux, la sociologie, les religions. Notre filière a en effet imprimé une marque indélébile, une symbolique immortelle, dans l’évolution du monde.
Le développement durable traduit fidèlement l’esprit d’un type de développement, formalisé par le rapport Brundtland, à l’origine du concept :

un développement qui répond aux besoins du présent, sans compromettre la capacité des générations futures de répondre aux leurs.
La préservation de l’environnement et plus globalement la Viticulture Durable, s’intègrent progressivement dans la plupart des itinéraires techniques viticoles et oenologiques. A partir des années 90, une vision durable associant notamment les impacts locaux et planétaires ont été développés au sein de l’Organisation Internationale de la Vigne et du Vin, (Résolution OIV CST 1/2004 www.oiv.int) :
« Approche globale à l’échelle des systèmes de production et de transformation des raisins, associant à la fois la pérennité économique des structures et des territoires, l’obtention de produits de qualité, la prise en compte des exigences d’une viticulture de précision, des risques liés à l’environnement, à la sécurité des produits et la santé des consommateurs et la valorisation des aspects patrimoniaux, historiques, culturels, écologiques et paysagers ».

Comparative study of the volatile substances and ellagitannins released to wine by barrels of Quercus pyrenaica, Quercus petraea and Quercus alba

The aim of the study was to study the volatile substances and ellagitannins released to wine by barrels of Quercus pyrenaica (Spanish Oak) in comparison with barrels of Quercus petraea (French Oak) and Quercus alba (American Oak) as well as to determine their sensory impact.

Sustainable yield management through fruitfulness and bunch architecture manipulation

Vineyards are highly variable and this variation is largely driven by environmental conditions and seasonal variation. For example, warm temperatures

New breeding frontiers: application of the CRISPR-cas9 system in grapevine (V. vinifera L.) and improvements in plant regeneration

Nowadays, many policies are being adopted for direct agriculture towards more sustainable approaches. To continue to maintain a high production using fewer fertilizers, pesticides and water resources, agronomic techniques must be combined with biotechnological approaches. In grapevine, the breeding programs are restricted by the fact that it has a highly heterozygous genome, therefore, if on the one hand, we try to improve the characteristics, on the other hand it is necessary to preserve the original genome of the varieties. CRISPR-cas9 system is one of the smartest tools to carry out highly precise genetic modifications leaving the genetic background unchanged.

Identification of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, a gamma nonalactone precursor in must and wine from Bordeaux cultivars

Various molecular compounds are responsible for the complex mixture of fragrances that give wine its aroma. In particular, the ‘cooked fruit’ aroma found in red wines from hot and/or dry vintages or from the vinification of late harvested grapes has been intensively investigated in recent years. Lactones and especially γ-nonalactone were found to be responsible for the ‘cooked fruit’

Novel protocols for variable rate vineyard management

The advent of precision viticulture (PV) has allowed to address problems related to spatial and temporal variability at the within-field scale. Nowadays, several remote and proximal sensing solutions allow description of the existing variability at different temporal and ground resolution through extremely robust soil, vigor, yield, and grape quality maps. In parallel, numerous studies have described grapevine performances within the homogeneous zones and identified soil as main driver of variability. There is a broad consensus that different vigor zones within the same plot may show differential canopy growth, yield and fruit composition, depicting diverse enological potentials and cultural needs.
