Main viticultural soils in Castilla – La Mancha (Spain)

Abstract

Castilla-La Mancha is the biggest vineyard in the world. Once similar soils have been identified in Castilla-La Mancha (soils chosen are very representative of vineyards areas in the region), the results obtained will be very useful in helping us to choose the right varieties, rootstock, cultivation techniques, canopy management, irrigation system, etc… In further studies this typology will help us in works of viticulture zonification in areas where this technique is improving now.

The challenge of viticultural landscapes

Le monde vitivinicole est de plus en plus concerné par la question paysagère : l’enjeu est de taille puisqu’il s’agit de la survie de l’image positive dont bénéficient les Appellations d’Origine Contrôlée. Les paysages sont composés d’éléments qui renvoient à des références socioculturelles fortes, susceptibles de modeler l’image d’un produit et d’en déterminer à notoriété et le prix. Dans un monde médiatisé comme le nôtre, le visuel construit l’arrière-plan des représentations mentales associées à toute marchandise ; et pour les aliments, produits de la terre, ce visuel est forcément paysager.
