A geologic numeric mapping, with geophysic transects, of Marsannay’s vineyard (Burgundy, France)

Abstract

Marsannay est l’appellation la plus septentrionale de la Côte de Nuits, à la limite Sud de Dijon. Elle regroupe trois villages, Chenôve, Marsannay-la-Côte et Couchey, et constitue l’appellation la plus vaste de la Côte de Nuits avec 315 hectares en A.O.C. Elle possède uniquement des niveaux d’appellations régionales et communales depuis 1987. En vue d’une demande de regroupements et de changements de niveau d’appellation de lieux-dits auprès de l’INAO, le Syndicat viticole a travaillé conjointement avec le groupe de recherche « terroir » des UMR CNRS 5561 et 5594. La méthodologie de cette étude a donc été orientée sur deux thématiques : une caractérisation physique des terroirs viticoles de l’appellation Marsannay et une étude géologique précise de l’appellation afin de comparer la répartition des facteurs naturels aux limites actuelles des lieux-dits. La caractérisation physique des terroirs viticoles a été réalisée à l’échelle des lieux-dits. La topographie est extraite des cartes I.G.N. au 1/25 000. Le vignoble de Marsannay est planté sur un relief de faille, entraînant une forte variabilité spatiale des substrats géologiques. Ainsi, une campagne de terrain a été menée afin de réaliser une carte géologique au 1/10 000. Les observations des affleurements sont complétées par plusieurs profils géophysiques et des fosses pédologiques. Les sub-affleurements ainsi que les variations du type de roche utilisée dans les constructions historiques de limite de parcelles sont intégrées afin d’affiner l’étude. Cette carte à grande échelle permet de comparer la spatialisation des substrats avec la délimitation des lieux-dits actuels. Il s’avère que les lieux-dits peuvent être géologiquement homogènes ou hétérogènes. Ainsi, faire des unités viticoles systématiquement homogènes d’un point de vue de la géologie amène à délimiter des lieux-dits de taille non adaptée à la culture de la vigne, et en inadéquation avec les délimitations existantes. Il est alors intéressant d’étudier si l’hétérogénéité du substrat d’un lieu-dit viticole influe sur la qualité du vin. Une corrélation a été réalisée pour des lieux-dits à niveau d’appellation et réputation différents.

Quality assessment of partially dealcoholized and dealcoholized red, rosé, and white wines: physicochemical, color, volatile, and sensory insights

The global non-alcoholic wine market is projected to grow from USD 2.7 billion in 2024 to USD 6.97 billion by 2034, driven by health awareness, lifestyle shifts, and religious factors [1-3]. Consequently, the removal of alcohol can significantly alter the key quality parameters of wine.

Sensory characterisation and consumer perspectives of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon wine typicity

Aim: To identify the sensory attributes responsible for the typicity of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from three Australian Geographical Indications (GIs) and to explore consumer purchase behaviour and preference with regard to regional wines.

Techniques for sunburn reduction in bunches in Vitis vinifera L. cv. Graciano

Sunburn results from a combination of excessive photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and UV radiation and temperature that can be exacerbated by other stress factors such as water deficit. Sunburn is a physiological disorder that affects the visual and organoleptic properties of grapes. The appearance of brown and necrotic spots severely affects the commercial value of the fruit, and in extreme cases, significantly decreases yield. This damage occurs with some frequency in sensitive varieties such as Graciano.

Effect of one-year cover crop and arbuscular mycorrhiza inocululation in the microbial soil community of a vineyard

The microbial composition of the soil is an important factor to consider in viticulture, since its influence on the “terroir” and on the organoleptic properties of the wine have been demonstrated. Different agronomic techniques have the potential to modify the composition and functionality of the soil microbial community. Maintaining green covers is known to increase soil microbial diversity. The direct application of inoculum of beneficial microorganisms to the soil has also been used to increase their abundance. However, the environmental conditions of each site seem to have a determining weight in the result of these practices. In this study, we compared the effect on the microbial community of a cover crop with legumes in autumn and the inoculation of grapevines with commercial inoculum bases on Rhizophagus irregularis and Funeliformis mosseae in the previous spring. The study has been carried out in a vineyard in Binissalem, Mallorca, Spain. After applying the treatments, we will analyze the soil microbial communities using the data obtained from Illumina amplification of soil DNA from the 16S and ITS regions to analyze bacteria and fungi community, respectively. In addition, we will record the physicochemical characteristics of the soil at each sampling point. The result showed that agronomic management, in the short term, has less influence than soil characteristics on the composition of the soil microbiome. With these results, we can conclude that in a vineyard, agricultural techniques should focus on improving the characteristics of the soil to improve the biodiversity of the soil microbiota.

The influence of culture medium on the dynamics of fermentation of wine yeasts

Wine yeast strains Saccharomyces ellipsoideus have important applications in food industry and in this regard is sought isolation as pure cultures and selecting those strains, which in laboratory investigations which have great biotechnological properties This study was intended as the ratio of live cells and autolysates cells also the influence of culture medium on this report. Yeasts selected for this study were isolated from industrial strains of indigenous grape varieties, namely: Feteasca Royal (FR) Feteasca White (FA), black Feteasca (FN), Romanian Tamaioasa (TR), Babeasca Black (BN) and Cotnari Grasa (GC).
