Etude des effets millésime, situation et sol à partir d’un observatoire du Gamay en beaujolais

Abstract

Des expérimentations sur Gamay ont été réalisées en Beaujolais de 2000 à 2006 sur 10 parcelles d’AOC différentes. De nombreuses mesures ont été effectuées à différents stades (vigne, baies récoltées, vinification et bouteille avec ou sans vieillissement). Ces mesures sont également de natures différentes (données phénologiques, analytiques, dégustation). Des analyses de la composition des sols sont également disponibles. Des travaux d’analyse de données ont permis d’effectuer une analyse exploratoire de la base de données afin de déterminer et quantifier les effets de divers facteurs (parcelle, millésime) sur certains des paramètres mesurés au cours du procédé de vinification. Ces effets ont également été mis en relation avec l’analyse des sols.

Les résultats confirment l’effet important du millésime. Une typologie des millésimes se dégage grâce aux outils utilisés. Un fort effet parcelle est également mis en évidence. Une corrélation existe entre couleur et acidité. Il est vérifié que la variable de rendement n’est pas responsable de l’effet parcelle pour les témoins. L’effet parcelle est en partie bien expliqué par la précocité, liée en général à l’altitude et au climat. Par contre cet effet est peu expliqué par le type d’AOC. La typologie de composition des sols présente un lien avec le type d’AOC. Les Beaujolais-Villages présentent notamment une bonne homogénéité. La composition des sols semble avoir peu d’impact sur le raisin et le vin produits sur les témoins.

English version: From 2000 to 2006 an important study was carried out on 10 plots in different Beaujolais AOC. Numerous measures were made at different stages (vine, must, vinification) with different nature (phenology, chemical, sensorial analysis). Data analysis have allowed to determine and quantify factor effects such as situation or vintage on wine characteristics. Soil analysis were also used in this study.

Results confirm important effect of vintage and it is possible to classify the different vintages with statistic tools used in this study. An important situation effect, independent of yield, was also highlighted. This effect is well explained by earliness but poorly by AOC. A strong correlation exists between wine color and acidity. There is a good relation between soil type and AOC, particularly with Beaujolais-Villages. But soil composition seems to have a weak influence on grape and wine characteristics.

Accurate and early yield estimation in vineyards is essential for the effective management of resources and informed decision-making in viticulture.

Grapevine responses to red blotch disease – a structural-functional perspective of symptomatology development and fruit quality

Red Blotch disease caused by Grapevine red blotch-associated virus (GRBaV) is a severe concern to grape growers and winemakers in major grape-growing regions worldwide. One key aspect of all viruses, including Red Blotch, is their intimate association with cell components and anomalous structures following infection. Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze symptomatology, vine function, fruit quality and ultrastructure of various tissues and document the relationship of ultrastructural cytopathology with the GRBaV infection in Pinot Noir and Merlot employing various microscopy techniques.

New antibacterial peptides produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae responsible for the inhibition of malolactic fermentation

In winemaking, several antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) produced by different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were found to be responsible for the inhibition of malolactic fermentation (MLF) carried out by some strains of Oenococcus oeni. However, only two AMPs produced by one of the yeast strains studied were totally identified and their mechanism of action was described. In an attempt to identify new AMPs, a 5-10 kDa peptidic fraction produced by an oenological strain of S. cerevisiae and previously shown to strongly inhibit MLF carried out by a strain of O. oeni was further purified.

Non Saccharomyces wine yeasts: emerging trends and challenges in winemaking

In the past, the contribution of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in winemaking has always been considered negative for their limited enological attitude if compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In recent decades there has been a reevaluation of the role of non-Saccharomyces wine yeasts especially when used in combination and in support with S. cerevisiae (mixed fermentation). In this regard, selected non-Saccharomyces yeasts could be profitable used to give distinctive features, to enhance flavor and aroma complexity and to reduce the ethanol content of wines. Further emerging trends in the use of these yeasts are related to their role as bioprotectants and producers of health promoters compounds.

The socioclimatic dynamics and the table grape production during a long-drought: the case of Brazilian semiarid

In 2022, the area cultivated with grapes in Brazil counted 75 thousand ha. About 1/2 of the grape production is located in rio grande do sul state, in South Brazil. Nonetheless, the northeast region, especially the Sao Francisco River Valley (SFRV), is increasing its area and production, mainly pushed by table grapes. The states of bahia and pernambuco already respond for circa 1/3 of brazilian grape production.
