Vineyard Carbon Footprint in warm-temperate humid terroirs: the case of Uruguay
Climate change is one of the main challenges for global viticulture, and mitigation strategies involve assessing and reducing the environmental footprint.
The 16th International Terroir congress and the 3rd ClimWine symposium was organised jointly in Bordeaux (France) from the 5 to 9 July 2026.

Climate change is one of the main challenges for global viticulture, and mitigation strategies involve assessing and reducing the environmental footprint.
Kaolin is increasingly used in Mediterranean viticulture as a foliar particle film to mitigate heat and water stress and to control grape leafhoppers.
Currently, the use of shading nets is an increasingly adopted strategy to reduce excessive solar radiation and canopy thermal stress within the Chilean wine industry.
This study investigates how wineries are adapting to climate challenges by not only modifying vineyard practices but also transforming their overall organization, knowledge, and value creation strategies (Jolink & Niesten, 2026).
Bunch compactness is a relevant factor influencing the grape composition, which consequently affects wine quality.
Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is one of the most widely cultivated perennial crops in Italy; however, most of cultivars are susceptible to powdery mildew, a major fungal disease caused by Erysiphe necator.
Among the key factors defining the terroir, soil nutrient dynamics play a pivotal role in shaping grapevine growth and yield.
Grafting is essential for the cultivation of many horticultural crops. Consequently, nurseries play a crucial role in assuring horticultural crop multiplication.
Plant water potential has long been used as an indicator of plant stress in various crops, including grapevines.
In many traditional wine-growing regions of Europe, most of the vineyards remain rainfed.
