  • Virginia Winery
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: GREEN FABRIC: A CENTER FOR VIRGINIA’S WINE CULTURE IN CHARLOTTESVILLE Elijah L. Northen, Master of Architecture, 2005 Thesis directed by: Ronit Eisenbach, Chair, Visiting Associate Professor Department of Architecture This thesis seeks to place a centralizing node amongst the greatest concentration of Virginia wineries in the city of Charlottesville. While the state of Virginia has maintained its vinicultural heritage from the time of the Colonists, several factors have proven insurmountable obstacles until recent decades. The state now supports nearly 90 wineries, yet lacks any focus within the industry, and marketing rarely stems beyond the fields of production.1 With nearly 33% of the State’s population living in the urban context, reaching the metropolitan areas will not only spur interest amongst city residents, but will magnetize tourists and begin to establish connections on the national market.2 This unique project will examine the bridging of a typically agricultural typology into the realm of an urban environment, thus encouraging the dynamism of the regional industry. By doing so the thesis presents opportunities for practices in ecological, social, and cultural sustainability. The structure will function not only as an educational facility in the vinicultural sense, but as a demonstration of sustainable design in an urban context, melding contemporary technology with a with a historic city fabric, thus dispelling the myth that “green” buildings need to stand alone as icons. 1 Lee, Allen E. and Hilde Gabriel.

  • Preserving Grapes
    Reviewed March 2010 Grapes Christine Jensen, Family and Consumer Science Agent Charlotte Brennand, Food Preservation Specialist Did you know? ! Botanically speaking, grapes are a form of berry. ! European grape varieties include Tokay, Ribier, and Thompson seedless. American grape varieties include Concord, Delaware, Niagara and Isabella. The American grapes tend to be larger and have skins that are easier to slip off, but the seeds are held firmly in the pulp. ! Commercial grape jelly in America is made from Concord grapes. ! Thompson seedless is the most common Concord grapesR grape used to make raisins. SELECTION OF GRAPES High quality grapes are plump, well formed and firmly attached to green, pliable stems. Fully ripe grapes are soft and tender. Grapes showing signs of decay, shriveling, stickiness or dry brittle stems should be avoided. Moldy and wet grapes indicate decay. Unlike some fruits, grapes will not improve or ripen after they have been harvested. They must be at peak quality and sweetness when you purchase or pick them. Green grapes are the sweetest and best flavored when they're yellow-green in color; red varieties when the grapes are predominately red; and the blue-black varieties when the berries have a full rich color. Fresh Facts ! Just before use, wash grape clusters under a gentle spray of water, drain and pat dry. ! Seedless grapes are used whole. For seeded grapes, remove seeds by cutting grapes into halves lengthwise and scooping out seeds with the point of a knife. ! Grapes are easier to peel when they’re frozen. Just rinse frozen grapes in lukewarm water until skins split.

  • History of Grape Growing in the Eastern United States
    History of Grape Growing in the Eastern United States By Fred Elmer Gladwin 1931 Reproduced in 2007 from the original work which was published in eleven parts in Rural New Yorker in 193 1. Fred Elmer Gladwin (1 877-1940) was a well regarded expert in viticulture. In 1909 he was appointed a special agent of the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station (NYSAES) and put in charge of the Vineyard Laboratory at Fredonia, NY which came into existence that same year. Later he was made associate in research at the NYSAES, and in 1936 was made chief in research in Pomology, a position he held at the time of his death. His entire period of service with the Experiment Station was spent at the Vineyard Laboratory. This series of columns he authored in 1931 on the history of grape growing in the Eastern United States has been brought together here in an effort to give more prominence to a small part of his work. The citations for the work as it originally appeared are listed here: Gladwin, F.E., "A History of Grape Growing in Eastern United States: Part I," Rural New Yorker, vol.XC, no.5 156,18 April 1931, page 485-486.

  • Potassium in Viticulture and Enology Russell Moss (Graduate Research Assistant, Virginia Tech) May 2016
    Potassium in viticulture and enology Russell Moss (Graduate Research Assistant, Virginia Tech) May 2016 Introduction Potassium (K+) is of interest to Virginia vintners, as many of the soils upon which vineyards have been planted have high exchangeable K+ levels and while excessive K+ does not cause “toxicity”, high soil concentrations can interfere with uptake of certain other nutrients. Furthermore, high K+ concentrations in grapes has potentially negative implications for wine acid profiles, pH and color stability. In a warm climate, such as Virginia, titratable acidity is known to degrade rapidly from véraison until harvest. This leads to wines which can be out of balance and considered “flabby” (i.e. lacking acidity), and such wines may also have significantly elevated pH. Tartaric acid can be added to the must to reduce pH; however, high concentrations of K+ in the juice can reduce the effectiveness of the acid addition. Therefore, it is to the advantage of the vintner to minimize the negative effects of K+ in the juice. This review will discuss: 1. The forms in which K+ is found in the soil 2. Mode of uptake and transport of K+ in the plant 3. Function of K+ in the plant 4. Environmental factors effecting uptake and transport of K+ 5. Viticultural practices which influence K+ uptake and transport 6. Enological consequences of high K+ in the juice K+ in the soil Potassium is generally the most abundant cation found in mineral soils (Reitemeier 1951). However, much of the K+ found in soils isn’t easily exchangeable and is held in primary minerals which only release the K+ gradually over considerable periods of time (Brady and Weil 1996).
