Relationship between terroir and vegetative potential, productivity, yield and must composition of Vitis Vinífera L. Cvs. Cabernet Sauvignon under warm climate conditions

Abstract

One cultivar could produce distinct wines with typical properties and qualities different depending on its cultivated and its mesoclimatic conditions.
This work has been developed in several zones of Cádiz town: Arcos de la Frontera, Jerez de la Frontera (Gibalbín), Jerez de la Frontera (Macharnudo), Jerez de la Frontera (Torrecera) and Sanlúcar de Barrameda. It was selected parcels with Cabernet Sauvignon cultivars and with similar growing characteristics. It was studied mesoclimatic factors, physiological and agronomic behaviour of the plant and grape, must properties of 2006 and 2007 harvest over all the zones.
Our mesoclimatic factors results show difference amount zones studied, these are strongly influenced mainly by the proximity or distance to the cost. This effect modified physiological characteristic of the plant and grape, must and wine properties, and its obtained significant differences over the several zones studied. Besides, it’s observed differences amount wines related to zones characteristic.

Estimation of chemical age of red wines with the use of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and chemometrics

The color of a red wine is one of the most important parameters of its quality, giving much information on its status, such as the grape variety used or the winemaking style. As the result of a complex equilibrium between different forms of anthocyanins and polymerization reactions which occur over the course of time, color can also serve as an indication of a wines’ age. For this purpose the “chemical age” i and ii indexes have been introduced by Somers in 1977. The chemical age index i measures the color absorbance after the addition of acetaldehyde while chemical index ii provides an indication of how much of the total red pigments are resistant to SO2 bleaching.
