Integration of wine cultivation history for characterizing the terroirs of Côte d’Or (Burgundy, France)

Abstract

Les aires d’appellations de la Côte d’Or résultent d’une sélection humaine empirique, historique et évolutive en adéquation avec les facteurs naturels. Afin de comprendre quels facteurs naturels et humains agissent sur le caractère et l’évolution des terroirs des Côtes de Nuits et de Beaune, une méthodologie de recherche a été développée. Elle s’articule autour de deux axes, la caractérisation physique des lieux-dits viticoles et l’historicité de la qualité de ces lieux-dits. Le travail avec un S.I.G permet d’étudier l’évolution spatiale et temporelle de la qualité. La caractérisation physique des versants viticoles constitue la base de l’étude. Cet axe inclut les données topographiques, géologiques et climatiques. Les données sont extraites des cartes topographiques de l’IGN au 1/25 000, géologiques du BRGM au 1/50 000, et des stations météorologiques de Météo France. Le maillage des stations météorologiques permet de définir un zonage pluviométrique et thermométrique pour les Côtes de Nuits et de Beaune. La délimitation des lieux-dits a été faite à partir des photos aériennes ortho-rectifiées de la mission de 2002.

La notion de « terroir » impliquant elle-même une notion de continuité de la qualité, l’historicité des lieux-dits viticoles a été étudiée à l’aide de plusieurs classements viticoles : trois antérieurs à la crise phylloxérique et un postérieur (I.N.A.O.). Or, les classements sélectionnés ne sont pas édifiés sur les mêmes critères. La spatialisation des niveaux d’appellations et leurs croisements avec les facteurs naturels sont réalisés pour chaque classement. Ces études successives permettent de comparer les influences des facteurs naturels sur chaque type de classement. Afin d’étudier la pérennité de la qualité des lieux-dits depuis le début du XIXe siècle, une carte cumulative des niveaux d’appellation des quatre classements est réalisée. De plus, la qualité gustative actuelle des lieux-dits est évaluée grâce à la compilation de plusieurs notations de guides viticoles internationalement reconnus.

A comprehensive and accurate annotation for the grapevine T2T genome 

Addressing the opportunities and challenges of genomics methods in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) requires the development of a comprehensive and accurate reference genome and annotation. We aimed to create a new gene annotation for the PN40024 grapevine reference genome by integrating the highly accurate and complete T2T assembly and the manually curated PN40024.v4 annotation. Here, we present a novel workflow to enhance the annotation of the T2T genome by incorporating past community input found in PN40024.v4. The pipeline’s containerization will improve the workflow’s reproducibility and flexibility, facilitating its inclusion as a shared workflow on the Grapedia portal, the grapevine genomics encyclopedia.

Insight on Lugana flavor with a new LC-MS method for the detection of polyfunctional thiols

The analysis of polyfunctional thiols in wine is challenging due to their low abundance and instability within a complex matrix. However, volatile thiols are highly aroma-active, making their accurate quantification in wine at low concentrations crucial [1].

VINIoT – Precision viticulture service

The project VINIoT pursues the creation of a new technological vineyard monitoring service, which will allow companies in the wine sector in the SUDOE space to monitor plantations in real time and remotely at various levels of precision. The system is based on spectral images and an IoT architecture that allows assessing parameters of interest viticulture and the collection of data at a precise scale (level of grape, plant, plot or vineyard) will be designed. In France, three subjects were specifically developed: evaluation of maturity, of water stress, and detection of flavescence dorée. For the evaluation of maturity, it has been decided first to work at the berry scale in the laboratory, then at the bunch scale and finally in the vineyard. The acquisition of the spectral hyperstal image as well as the reference analyzes to measure the maturity, were carried out in the laboratory after harvesting the berries in a maturity monitoring context. This work focuses on a case study to predict sugar content of three different grape varieties: Syrah, Fer Servadou and Mauzac. A robust method called Roboost-PLSR, developed in the framework of this work (Courand et al., 2022), to improve prediction model performance was applied on spectra after the acquirement of hyperspectral images. Regarding the evaluation of water stress, to work with a significant variability in terms of water status, it has been worked first with potted plants under 2 different water regimes. The facilities have allowed the supervision of irrigation and micro-climatic conditions. The regression models on agronomic variables (stomatal conductance, water potential, …) are studied. To detect flavescence dorée, the experimental plan has consisted of work at leaf scale in the laboratory first, and then in the field. To detect the disease from hyper-spectral imaging, a combination of multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) and factorial discriminant analysis (FDA) was proposed. This strategy proved the potential towards the discrimination of healthy and infected leaves by flavescence dorée based on the use of hyperspectral images (Mas Garcia et al., 2021).

Building new temperature indexes for a local understanding of grapevine physiology

Aim: Temperature corresponds to one of the main terroir factors influencing grapevine physiology, primarily evidenced by its impact on phenology. Numerous studies have aimed at expressing time with thermal indices such as growing degree days (GDD) and have thus enabled a better modelling of grapevine responses to temperature. However, some works have highlighted the need to adapt
