Zoning of potential landscape and environment potential of the «Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée Costières de Nîmes»

Abstract

The Union defence of the “appellation Costières de Nîmes” hired a reflection on the future of its territory production in the interests of preservation and enhancement. It has launched a study in partnership with the Urban Community Nîmes Métropole and DIREN Languedoc-Roussillon on the cultural and economic values that form the landscape and the environment. The work done in consultation with the players in the area led to the signing of a charter and environmental landscape. The map areas of potential landscape and environment of the “A.O.C. Costières de Nîmes” was one of the first objectives of the charter. This map identifies on the basis of a typology: 
– land of excellence; 
– land under urban influence; 
– land who have lost their agricultural or urban lands. 
This card is an information paper to the actors and agencies territory “Costières” (elected… communities). It aims to take better account of the added production that make up the landscape and the environment. For each type identified, management guidance and support are available to maintain, preserve and enhance the attractiveness of the quality of life, economic strength and promotional landscape and the environment (viewpoints, axes discovery … viticultural landscape). These proposals are intended to ensure a balanced economic development of the territory of appellation. They come in 34 actions included in the charter and environmental landscape of the “appellation Costières de Nîmes”.

The grapevine single-berry clock, practical tools and outcomes 

The dynamic sequence of physiological events along the three-months of berry development from anthesis to ripe stage has been thoroughly investigated. Most studies were performed on average samples, taking care to crush enough fruits to fairly represent the overall trend of the future harvest. However, phenological stages like 30% caps off (EL25) highlights the asynchronous nature of this population. Consequently, softening, onset of sugar accumulation and coloration were melted by asynchrony in a developmental mumbo jumbo, until their respective timing could be clarified by single berries approaches.

Implementing VIS-NIR spectroscopy as a rapid and non-intrusive technique for assessing anthocyanin and phenolic concentrations in Vitis vinifera L. Grenache whole grape berries

Anthocyanins and phenolic compounds play a crucial role in winemaking, contributing to the profile, flavor, color, texture, and stability of wine. Grape clusters, specifically Vitis vinifera L. cv. Grenache, were handpicked from a commercial vineyard sited in Tudelilla, La Rioja, Spain (42°18′ 52.26″, Long. -2°7′ 59.15″, Alt. 582 m) on five distinct dates from veraison to harvest during the 2015 season. Non-contact spectral measurements were conducted on intact grape berries using a VIS-NIR spectrometer operating in the 570 – 1000 nm spectral range under controlled laboratory conditions, positioned at a distance of 25 cm from the berries. The quantification of 16 anthocyanins and phenols in 120 grape clusters was performed using HPLC, established as the reference method for validating the spectral tool.
