  • Late Harvest
    TASTING NOTES LATE HARVEST DESCRIPTION 2017 The Tokaj legend has grown and grown in its four-hundred years of history; but it was not until 1630, when the greatness of Oremus vineyard was first spoken of. Today, it is the one with greatest universal acclaim. The Tokaj region lies within the range of mountains in Northeast Hungary. Oremus winery is located at the geographical heart of this region. At harvest, bunches are picked several times a day but. Only those containing at least 50% of botrytis grapes, are later pressed, giving the noble rot a leading role. Late Harvest is an interesting coupage of different grape varieties producing an exceptionally well-balanced wine. Fermentation takes place in new Hungarian oak barrels (136- litre “Gönc” and 220-litre “Szerednye”) for 30 days and stops naturally when alcohol level reaches 12 %. Then, the wine ages in Hungarian oak for six months and sits in bottle for a 15-month ageing period. Late Harvest is a harmonious, fresh, silky wine. It is very versatile, providing a new experience in each sip. GENERAL INFORMATION Alcohol by volume - 11 % Sugar - 119 g/l Acidity - 9 g/l Variety - Furmint, Hárslevelü, Zéta and Sárgamuskotály Average age of vineyard - 20 years Vineyard surface area - 91 ha Planting density - 5,660 plants/ha Altitude - 200 m Yield - 1,300 kg/ha Harvest - 100% Hand-picked in 2-3 rounds from late September to early November 2017 VINEYARD CYCLE After the coldest January of the past decade, spring and summer brought average temperatures and precipitation in good dispersion. Mid-September rain allows the development of noble rot to spread in the vineyard, turning 2017 into one of the greatest vintages for sweet wine in the last decade.

  • Beyond the Traditional NDVI Index As a Key Factor to Mainstream the Use of UAV in Precision Viticulture Alessandro Matese* & Salvatore Filippo Di Gennaro
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Beyond the traditional NDVI index as a key factor to mainstream the use of UAV in precision viticulture Alessandro Matese* & Salvatore Filippo Di Gennaro In the last decade there has been an exponential growth of research activity on the identifcation of correlations between vegetational indices elaborated by UAV imagery and productive and vegetative parameters of the vine. However, the acquisition and analysis of spectral data require costs and skills that are often not sufciently available. In this context, the identifcation of geometric indices that allow the monitoring of spatial variability with low-cost instruments, without spectral analysis know-how but based on photogrammetry techniques with high-resolution RGB cameras, becomes extremely interesting. The aim of this work was to evaluate the potential of new canopy geometry- based indices for the characterization of vegetative and productive agronomic parameters compared to traditional NDVI based on spectral response of the canopy top. Furthermore, considering grape production as a key parameter directly linked to the economic proft of farmers, this study provides a deeper analysis focused on the development of a rapid yield forecast methodology based on UAV data, evaluating both traditional linear and machine learning regressions. Among the yield assessment models, one of the best results was obtained with the canopy thickness which showed high performance with the Gaussian process regression models (R2 = 0.80), while the yield prediction average accuracy of the best ML models reached 85.95%. The fnal results obtained confrm the feasibility of this research as a global yield model, which provided good performance through an accurate validation step realized in diferent years and diferent vineyards.

  • Birth of Terroir Wines Harvest Notebook 2020 Climatology of the 2020 Vintage
    Birth of terroir wines Harvest notebook 2020 Climatology of the 2020 vintage 1. A mild winter The very mild temperatures at the beginning of winter heralded an early vintage. With the warming of the soil, the budburst took a head start. The first buds came out ho- mogeneously in mid-February. 2. A rainy spring Rainfall was extremely heavy from mid-April to mid-May, making this the wettest pe- riod in twenty years. In pre-flowering, these conditions, combined with mild tempera- tures, created strong pressure from mildew and complicated the soil work. 3. A dry and warm summer Almost two months without rainfall followed one another from the end of June to mid-August, with high temperatures. Water stress in the vineyard remained mo- derate before the closure of bunches, thanks to the winter and spring recharging of the soil with water, especially on our clay soils. Our white grape varieties, Sauvi- gnon and Semillon, were harvested at the end of August, almost a week in advance. 4. The return of the rain during the harvest September is marked by dry weather conditions with very high temperatures for the first fifteen days. After the beginning of the Merlot harvest, rain sett- led down durably around the 22nd. The sanitary state of the vineyard being good, we were able without concern to harvest between the raindrops. The rain was beneficial to our very concentrated grapes which were able to gain in fresh- ness. At the end of September, it was the turn of the Cabernets to be picked. 5.

  • An Overview on Sustainability in the Wine Production Chain
    beverages Review An Overview on Sustainability in the Wine Production Chain Antonietta Baiano Dipartimento di Scienze Agrarie, degli Alimenti e dell’Ambiente, University of Foggia, Via Napoli, 25, 71122 Foggia, Italy; [email protected]; Tel.: +39-881-589249 Abstract: Despite the great relevance of sustainable development, the absence of a shared approach to sustainable vitiviniculture is evident. This review aimed to investigate sustainability along the entire wine chain, from primary production to the finished wine, with specific attention to three key dimensions of sustainability (environmental, social, and economic) and relating measures. Therefore, it was decided to: investigate the ways in which sustainability is applied in the various stages of the production chain (wine growing, wineries, distribution chain, and waste management); analyse the regulations in force throughout the world and the main labelling systems; provide numerical information on sustainable grapes and wines; study the objective quality of sustainable wines and that perceived by consumers, considering that it affects their willingness to pay. The research highlighted that rules and regulations on organic production of grapes and wines are flanked by several certification schemes and labelling systems. Although sustainable wines represent a niche in the market, in recent years, there has been an increase in vineyards conducted with sustainable (mainly organic and biodynamic) methods, and a consequent increase in the production of sustainable wines both in traditional and emerging producing countries. Although (or perhaps precisely for this reason) no significant differences in quality are found among sustainable and conventional wines, consumers are willing to pay a premium for sustainably produced wines. This finding should encourage wineries to both put in place environmental activities and intensify their communication.

  • Harvest Parameters
    HARVEST PARAMETERS Determining when to harvest is often one of the grapegrower’s biggest challenges. Traditionally, there are three parameters that can be measured objectively: °Brix (indicates approximate sugar level, measured by a refractometer); juice pH, measured by a pH meter; and titratable acidity (TA). It is important that measurements be taken on a representative sample. Take at least 100 berries, randomly selected from vines of the same cultivar, from several different locations in the vineyard. Place them in a zip-closed plastic bag, crush the berries and extract a sample of the juice to test for °Brix, pH and TA. Suggested levels for white wine grapes: °Brix – 18 to 22 pH – 3.2 to 3.0 TA – 0.8 to 1.2 Suggested levels for red winegrapes: °Brix – 21 to 24 pH – 3.4 to 3.5 TA – 0.6 to 1.2 For grapes that become “foxy” or lose their acidity at high °Brix, such as ‘Edelweiss’, it is recommended to harvest the fruit considerably earlier, e.g., 13.5 to 15 °Brix (where legal, chaptalization – adding of sugar – may enable a suitable alcohol level to be achieved). Winery personnel (the winemaker) may dictate that harvest take place when the grape parameters vary significantly from those noted above. Experienced winemakers often base their harvest timing preferences on past experience, especially the taste of the juice, which may provide them with a particular wine style that they prefer. Flavors, and other characteristics of a given cultivar may also influence harvest timing. Timing of harvest may be accelerated by bird, insect or disease pressure – damaged grapes do not make good wine.
