Vino e paesaggio: materiali per il governo del territorio vitivinicolo. Il piano regolatore delle città del vino

Abstract

[English version below]

S’intende per Piano Regolatore delle Città del Vino la metodologia per redigere la parte strutturale dello strumento comunale di governo del territorio. Parliamo, infatti, del principale strumento comunale di governo del territorio, così come è venuto maturando nella riflessione delle Città del Vino, strumento che si misura con la sfida di governare tutto il territorio in modo coerente e sostenibile, a partire dal riconoscimento del valore del “sistema vigneto” e della sua intrinseca fragilità.
In questo senso il PRCV rappresenta, fin dall’inizio (1996, sottoposto successivamente nel 1998 nel corso del 2° Simposio Internazionale sulla zonazione “Vino e territorio”, organizzato dall’Associazione nazionale Città del Vino, nel canovaccio dei temi più specificatamente agronomici), una piccola “rivoluzione copernicana”: il piano non si pone più solo l’obiettivo di trovare un posto alle esigenze urbane, ma soprattutto quello di capire quali esigenze possano essere soddisfatte dal territorio ed a quali condizioni. In altra parole, la “campagna”, in particolare i territori vitivinicoli, diventa centrali per la qualità dello sviluppo economico e per la qualità della vita, i produttori diventano i protagonisti della condivisione di nuove regole di gestione dei territori e ne assumono insieme agli amministratori pubblici la responsabilità.
Nel 2009 è stato completato un aggiornamento della metodologia che riguarda il paesaggio, inteso come un bene fondamentale della collettività, non semplicemente strumentale, ma per questo da studiare, conoscere, promuovere, valorizzare e tutelare laddove occorra. Il lavoro svolto, partendo da una ricognizione attenta delle normative regionali in vigore sulla materia, passando per un esame della situazione e caratteristiche dei Siti legati alla vitivinicoltura Patrimonio dell’Umanità, in cui non figura nessun territorio italiano, arricchisce il metodo con alcune nuove buone pratiche da tenere in considerazione per la pianificazione delle aree rurali.
Se Io studio dell’evolversi del paesaggio agrario mostra quanto la separazione tra utile e bello sia un’astrazione concettuale recentissima, nell’agire della tradizione è impossibile separare ciò che è stato fatto per l’utilità da quanto per la bellezza, tanto le due cose erano indistinguibili, quasi che la tradizione non riuscisse a concepire qualcosa di utile che non fosse anche, e per ciò stesso, bella. E viceversa, trovando nella bellezza un’utilità e nell’utilità una qualità anche estetica.

With the PRCV (Piano Regolatore delle Città del Vino = “Urban Planning of the Wine Cities”) we mean the structural part of the main Municipal tool for the governance of the Italian territories, as it has been framing and developping by the Italian Association of Wine Cities. In this framework, its main challenge is to face the governance of all territories, in a coherent and sustainable way, starting from the recognition of the value of the “vineyard system” and its inner fragi I ity.
In this regard, the PRCV has been representing since the beginning (in 1996 the first draft was released and then presented in 1998 during the “International Symposium of Wine and Territory”) a little “Copernican Revolution”. The Planning doesn’t intend to find a piace for all the urban needs, but it tries to understand which needs could be satisfied from the territory, and how. In other words, the “countryside”, above all the vineyard landscape, is relevant for the quality of the economie development and for the quality of life. The farmers begin to share the new landscape governance rules and responsibilities with the locai public administrations.
In 2009 the revision of this method has been completed, and here the landscape is intended as an essential good for people, not only as a capita! good. For this reason, it has to be studied, known, promoted, improved and preserved where needed.
The work starts from a reconnaissance of the rules of the different Italian Regions, then passes through a careful examination of the situation and the characteristics of the Heritage Sites of UNESCO, in which no Italian wine landscape is present, and in this way it enlarges the method with some good suggestions.
If the agricultural landscape study shows how the discerption between useful and beautiful is a very recent abstraction, in tradition on the contrary, it is impossible to detach what was done for utility from what was done for beauty. It seems that tradition couldn’t even ideate something useful that wasn’t also beautiful. And vice versa, also finding utility in beauty.

The impacts of frozen material-other-than-grapes (MOG) on aroma compounds of red wine varieties

An undesirable note called “floral taint” has been observed in red wines by winemakers in the Niagara region caused by large volumes of frozen leaves and petioles [materials-other-than-grapes (MOG)] introduced during mechanical harvest and subsequent winemaking late in the season. The volatiles, which we hypothesized are responsible, are primarily terpenes, norisoprenoids, and specific esters in frozen leaves and petioles. The purpose of this study was to investigate the volatile compounds which may cause the floral taint problem and explore how much of them (thresholds) may lead to the problem. Also, the glycosidic precursors of some of these compounds were analyzed to see the changes happening during frost events.

Aromatic profile of six different clones of Chardonnay grape berries in Minas Gerais (Brazil)

Aromas are one of the key points in food analysis since they are related to character, quality and consequently consumer acceptance. It is not different in the winery industry, where the aromatic profile is a combination of viticultural and oenological practices. Based on the development of more aromatic clones and on the potential to produce sparkling wines at Caldas, in the southern region of Minas Gerais (Brazil) (21°55´S and 46°23´W, altitude 1,100m), the aim of this work was the determination of volatile compounds in six different clones of Chardonnay grape berries to better understand which compounds add bouquet to the wine, and additionally comprehend the impacts of the edaphoclimatic and annual conditions on the improvement of grape-growing and winemaking practices.

Improving stilbenes in vitis Labrusca L. Grapes through methyl jasmonate applications

Grapes (Vitis sp.) are considered a major source of phenolic compounds such as flavonols, anthocyanins and stilbenes. Studies related to the beneficial effects of these compounds on health have encouraged research aimed at increasing their concentration in fruits. On this behalf, several plant growth regulators such as jasmonic acid and its volatile ester, methyl-jasmonate (MeJa), have demonstrated promising results in many fruits. However, Brazilian subtropical climate might interfere on treatment response. The present study aims to evaluate the application of MeJa in the pre-harvest period in Concord and Isabel Precoce grapes (Vitis labrusca L.).

Service crop effects on grapevine water and nitrogen status and yield under Mediterranean climate

Service crops in vineyard can provide multiple ecosystem services but they can also lead to competition with the grapevine for soil resources in the Mediterranean region due to potential severe droughts (Garcia et al., 2018). One of the levers of action to manage this competition is the choice of species adapted in terms of growth dynamics and water and nutrients’ needs. The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of temporary service crops on grapevine water and nitrogen status and grapevine yield and yield components in a Mediterranean vineyard.

Impact of deficit irrigation strategies on terpene concentration in Gewürztraminer grapes

Deficit irrigation is a viticultural practice often applied to improve the phenolic composition of red grapes and wines. However, the impact of this practice on grape terpenes – key aromatics for several grapes and wines – remains largely unknown. This study investigated the impact of deficit irrigation strategies on free and glycosylated terpenes in Gewürztraminer grapes. In a field study conducted in Oliver, BC, in 2016, 2017, and 2018, deficit irrigation regimes were applied to Gewürztraminer vines at different developmental stages (pre-veraison = Early Deficit, ED; post-veraison = Late Deficit, LD; throughout the season = Prolonged Deficit, PD). A well-irrigated control (CN) treatment was also established.
