A.O.C. taureau de Camargue

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of preharvest application in Monastrell berries using two different types of applications: conventional treatments

It is widely known the impact that oxidation has on wine sensory degradation and eventually, in the shortening of its longevity.

Aim: Pests have a high impact on yield and grape quality in viticulture. An objective and rapid detection of pests under field conditions is needed. New sensing technologies and artificial intelligence could be used for pests detection in digital viticulture. The aim of this work was to apply computer vision and deep learning techniques for automatic detection of spider mite symptoms in grapevine under field conditions. 

In the winemaking process, several compounds that remain in the grape skins and seeds after the fermentation stage are bioactive-compounds (substances with potential beneficial effects on health) that can be extracted in order to recovery valuable substances with a high commercial value for the cosmetic, food (nutraceuticals) and pharmaceutical industries. The skins contain significant amounts of bioactive substances such as tannins (16-27%) and other polyphenolic compounds (2-6.5%) in particular, catechins, anthocyanins, proanthocyanins, quercetin , ellagic acid and resveratrol.

Residual grape solids (suspended particles) in white and rosé musts vary depending on the clarification pro-cess. These suspended solids contain lipids (more especially phytosterols) that are essential for yeast meta-bolism and viability during fermentation in anaerobic conditions.
