Il monitoraggio meteorologico come strumento per la gestione della variabilità climatica in Franciacorta

Abstract

[English version below]

Nel 2007 è stata avviata una ricerca nell’areale di produzione del Franciacorta DOCG che ha riguardato un ampio numero di vigneti di Chardonnay con riferimento ai quali sono stati acquisite le serie storiche dal 2001 relative a (i) decorso delle epoche fenologiche, (ii) curve di maturazione e (iii) dati prodotti dalla rete meteorologica consortile. Tali dati hanno permesso di produrre un modello empirico agrofenologico relativo allo Chardonnay nell’areale considerato e di calibrare e validare un modello meccanicistico di simulazione della produttività primaria, chiamato SIM_PP.

In 2007 a research was started on an high number of vineyards in the Franciacorta AOC area. From 2001 to 2009, phonological stages records and ripening kinetics data were collected. Starting from phenological data, an empiric agrophenological model was build, in order to estimate principal stages by using daily cumulated temperature. Furthermore, ripening kinetics were compared to mechanicistic model simulations (SIM_PP, Mariani and Maugeri, 2002). Starting from air daily temperatures, SIM_PP simulates the Net Primary Production, allocation dynamics in sink organs and the sugars storage in berries, using a mechanism based on transpiration and mass transport flux.
The comparison between real in-field situation and gathered simulations allowed to evaluate mechanicistic and empirical models performance.

Unraveling vineyard site from vintage contributions: Elemental composition of site-specific Pinot noir wines across multiple vintages

Understanding vineyard site contribution to elemental composition of wines has, historically, been limited due to lack of continuity across multiple vintages, as well as lack of uniformity in scion clone and lack of controlled pilot-scale winemaking conditions.  We recently completed our fifth vintage, and have elemental composition characterizing wines from four vintages (2015–2018)

Data fusion approaches for sensory and multimodal chemistry data applied to storage conditions

The need to combine multimodal data for complex samples is due to the different information captured in each of the techniques (modes).

OPTIMIZATION, VALIDATION AND APPLICATION OF THE EPR SPIN-TRAPPING TECHNIQUE TO THE DETECTION OF FREE RADICALS IN CHARDONNAY WINES

The aging potential of Burgundy chardonnay wines is considered as quality indicator. However, some of them exhibit higher oxidative sensitivity and premature oxidative aging symptoms, which are potentially induced by no-enzymatic oxidation such as Fenton-type reaction (Danilewicz, 2003). This chemical mechanism involves the action of transition metal, native phenolic compounds and oxygen which promote the generation of highly reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydroxyl radicals (OH) or 1-hydroxyethyl radicals (1-HER) from oxidation of ethanol. Such mechanism is involved in the radical oxidation occurring during bottle aging. According to Elias et al.,(2009a), the 1-HER is the most abundant radical in forced oxidation treated wines. Consequently, understanding its evolution kinetic in dry white wines is of great importance.

‘It’s a small, yappy dog’: The British idea of terroir

Aims: Most consumer research about terroir has focused on wine, particularly with French or other European wine drinkers, rather than those in the Anglo-Saxon world. In Europe, whilst there is no agreement amongst consumers as to what terroir actually is, there is a general recognition of the word and an acceptance that it represents something important
