A study on the oenological potentiality of the territory of a cooperative winery in Valpolicella (Italy)

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2021, Sophie Tempère (Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin – ISVV, Université de Bordeaux) speaks about the recovery of olfactory capacity following a COVID-19 infection. This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on IVES Technical Reviews.

To test the hypothesis that soil type plays a minor role relative to that of vine vigor in the determination of yield, fruit composition and wine sensory attributes, 5 Chardonnay vineyards in the Niagara

The evolution of wine quality issues is historically expressed by the passage from wine quality (what is a wine?) to wine quality (what is a good wine?). Perhaps the next question could be: what is a good sustainable wine? To contribute to reflection on this theme, it may be worthwhile to undertake an exercise in prospective fiction, which we have identified in the hypothesis of the AOD, the “appellation d’origine durable”, a scenario we will develop in the light of developments in the wine industry and the regulation on geographical indications.

Durante el bienio 1998-1999 se estudió el uso consuntivo de cultivos de viña var. Listán negro, en cuatro fincas situadas en la Comarca de Tacoronte-Acentejo, en la isla de Tenerife.

The amount of synthetic pesticides applied in viticulture is relatively high compared to other agricultural crops, due to the high sensitivity of grapevine to diseases such as downy mildew (Plasmopora viticola). Alternatives to reduce fungicides are utterly needed to promote a sustainable vineyard-ecosystems and meet consumer acceptance. Essential oils (EOs) are amongst the most promising natural plant protection agents and have shown their antifungal properties previously. However, the efficiency of EOs depends highly on timing and application technique.
