Observation and modeling of climate at fine scales in wine-producing areas

Abstract

Global change in climate affect regional climates and hold implications for viticulture worldwide. Despite numerous studies on the impact of projected global warming on different regions, global atmospheric models are not adapted to local scales and impacts at fine scales are still approximate. Although real progress in downscaling, using meso-scale atmospheric models taking surface characteristics into account, was realized over the past years, no operative model is in use yet to simulate climate at local scales (hundreds of meters). The TERVICLIM and TERACLIM programs aim at observing climate at local scales in different wine producing regions worldwide; simulating both climate and climate change in order to produce a fine scale assessment of the climate change impacts, thereafter simulating scenario of adaptation for viticulture, providing guidance to decision-makers in the viticultural sector.

Identification of loci associated with specialised metabolites in Vitis vinifera

Secondary (or specialised) metabolites such as terpenes and phenolic compounds are produced by plants for various roles which include defence against pathogens and herbivores, protection against abiotic stress, and plant signalling. Additionally, these metabolites influence grapevine quality traits such as colour, aroma, taste, and nutritional value. However, the biosynthesis of these metabolites is often complex and controlled by multiple genes which in grapevine are predominantly uncharacterised.

Wine shaking during transportation: influence on the analytical and sensory parameters of wine

According to OIV reports, annual world wine consumption fluctuated around 240-245 mln hL over the past decade. The general market globalization has led to the situation when almost half of the consumed wine is exported to other countries. Of this volume, more than 60 mln hL are bottled still and sparkling wines.

Neural networks and ft-ir spectroscopy for the discrimination of single varietal and blended wines. A preliminary study.

Blending wines from different grape varieties is often used in order to increase wine complexity and balance. Due to their popularity, several types of blends such as the Bordeaux blend, are protected by PDO legislation.
