Influence de la nutrition potassique sur le manque d’acidité des vins issus du cépage Negrette

Abstract

Une baisse préoccupante de l’acidité des vins est observée dans beaucoup de régions viticoles, comme le Bordelais (Merlot), la Bourgogne (Pinot Noir), les Côtes-du-Rhône (Grenache) ou la Rioja (Tempranillo). Ce manque d’acidité est particulièrement marqué dans le vignoble Midi-Pyrénéen des Côtes du Frontonnais (Tournier, 1993). Or, l’acidité d’un vin est un des principaux facteurs de sa qualité, en effet, une faible acidité combinée à une structure tannique insuffisante entraîne une oxydation rapide des vins et les fait vieillir prématurément. De multiples travaux font état de la liaison étroite entre la faible acidité d’un moût ou d’un vin grande richesse en potassium (Boulton, 1980 ; Delas et al., 1989 ; Falcetti et al., 1993 ; Champagnol, 1988; Soyer et Molot, 1993).

D’autre part, la teneur en potassium des moûts est corrélée à celle des feuilles (Mattick, 1972 ; Champagnol, 1990) et une corrélation a été mise en évidence entre cette dernière et la fertilisation potassique (Morris et al., 1983 ; Champagnol, 1988, 1990 ; Soyer et Molot, 1993 ; Jourdan, 1993). Cependant, ces liaisons sont discutées par d’autres auteurs comme Dundon et al. (1984), Conradie et Saayman (1989) ou Matthews et al. (1993).
Pour contribuer à résoudre ce problème, nous avons choisi comme matériel d’étude la Négrette, cépage principal des Côtes du Frontonnais et cépage donnant des vins particulièrement peu acides.

Une double expérimentation a été mise en place. La première a été effectuée en culture hors-sol, sous serre. Elle a pour but de déterminer, grâce à l’application de solutions nutritives ayant des équilibres potassium-calcium différents, les relations existant entre les teneurs en potassium du milieu nutritif et celles des feuilles et des moûts, ainsi que leurs répercussions sur l’acidité des vins. La seconde est une expérimentation en champ qui a pour objectif d’étudier les interactions précédentes in situ. Le suivi de l’état nutritionnel de la vigne a été réalisé selon un protocole mis au point par Garcia et al. (1984) et Doux et al. (1985). La sélection des parcelles a été effectuée en s’inspirant de la méthode mise au point par Morlat et Asselin (1992).

EMERGENCE OF INORGANIC PHOSPHONATE RESIDUES IN GRAPEVINE PLANT PARTS, BERRIES AND WINES FROM SOURCES OTHER THAN FOLIAR SPRAYING

Inorganic phosphonates are known to effectively support the control of grapevine downy mildew in vi- ticulture. Their application helps the plant to induce an earlier and more effective pathogen defense. However, inorganic phosphonates have been banned in organic viticulture due to their classification as plant protection products since October 2013. Despite the ban, phosphonate has been recently detected in organic wines.

Investigating three proximal remote sensing techniques for vineyard yield monitoring

Yield monitoring can provide the winegrowers with information for precise production inputs during the season, thereby, ensuring the best possible harvest. Yield estimation is currently achieved through an intensive process that is destructive and time-consuming. However, remote sensing provides a group of proximal technologies and techniques for a non-destructive and less time-consuming method for yield monitoring.The objective of this study was to analyse three different approaches, for measuring grapevine yield close to harvest.

SENSORY PROPERTIES IMPORTANT TO AUSTRALIAN FINE WINE CONSUMER SEGMENT PERCEPTION OF CHARDONNAY WINE COMPLEXITY AND PREFERENCE

Wine complexity is considered a multidimensional yet equivocal sensory percept. This project uncovered sensory attributes Australian Chardonnay wine consumers associate with Chardonnay wine complexity
and correlations between expert and consumer perceived wine complexity and preference. A
wine consumer test examined 6 Australian Chardonnay wines of three complexity levels designated low (LC1&2), medium (MC1&2), and high (HC1&2) by an expert panel (n = 8) using a benchtop sensory task. Consumers (n = 81) rated their perceived liking using a 9-point hedonic scale; wine complexity with a 5-point scale anchored “low”, “low-medium”, “medium”, “medium-high”, and “high” and lastly, profiled the wines using Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA). Psychographic segmentation with the Fine Wine Instrument
(FWI) generated three segments; Wine Enthusiasts (WE n=29), Aspirants (ASP n=40) and No- Frills (NF n=12).

Comparative study of qualitative and quantitative characters of grape cultivar ‘Mavrodafni’ (Vitis vinifera L.) grown in different regions of the PDO Mavrodafni Patras

‘Mavrodafni’ (Vitis vinifera L.) is considered one of the oldest grapevine cultivars indigenous to the Greek vineyard, with western Peloponnese being its primary center of cultivation. ‘Renio’ is considered to be either a variant of ‘Mavrodafni’ or an altogether different cultivar. Both ‘Mavrodafni’ and ‘Renio’ can be found in the vineyards of the centers of cultivation, since ‘Renio’ is considered to be more productive compared to ‘Mavrodafni’, and for this reason, it has gradually replaced ‘Mavrodafni’ from cultivation over the course of time. The aim of the present study was to assay the mechanical properties, the polyphenolic content and the antioxidant capacity of skin extracts and must of berries coming from ‘Mavrodafni’ and ‘Renio’, cultivated in the same vineyard as well as in the different regions of cultivation of the PDO Mavrodafni Patras.

Long-lasting flavour perception of wines treated with oenological additives considering the individual PROP taste-phenotype

The use of oenological additives is becoming a common practice due to the technological and sensory properties they provide to the wines. However, the number of studies focused on the impact that these additives might induce on wine flavor perception during wine tasting is still quite scarce. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of three different types of common oenological additives: two oenotannins (ellagitannin and gallotannin) and a commercial preparation of yeast mannoproteins on the long-lasting flavor perception (aroma and astringency).
