New tools for a visual analysis of vineyard landscapes?

Abstract

A vineyard landscape is above all an area observed by someone, that is to say a physical entity perceved and represented by this person. 
We try here to analyse more precisely the constitutive forms of vineyard landscapes and their visual perception. We use different complementary methods: 
– plastic and aesthetic landscape analysis, 
– modelling of some parameters like visual accessibility of landscape, 
– analysis of the observer’s attitude and eye tracking. 
Combination of these different analysis tools gives us a better knowledge of vineyard landscapes and their evolutions. It can appear useful for touristic or technical development.

Use of fumaric acid on must or during alcoholic fermentation

Fumaric acid has been approved by the OIV in 2021 for its application on wine to control the growth and activity of lactic acid bacteria. Fumaric acid is currently being evaluated by the OIV as an acidifier of must and wine. Investigations during the 2023 vintage provided further information on its use on must or during AF, thus completing information provided during the previous vintage.

Influence du terroir sur la composition en flavonoïdes de la baie de raisin de Cabernet franc en Moyenne Vallée de la Loire

The terroir offers great variability in the typicity of the wines produced. Following tastings integrating several vintages, the multiple factor analysis of the sensory data revealed a group of taste criteria contributing to the notion of “Power”, referenced “Power and Harmony”, which makes it possible to differentiate wines from various terroirs of the Middle Loire Valley (Pages et al ., 1987).
