Owing to the superior quality of their grapes, these cultivars were long considered the only suitable for the production of high quality wines. However, the lack of resistance genes to fungal diseases like powdery and downy mildew (Uncinula necator and Plasmopara viticola) makes it necessary the application of huge amounts of chemical products in vineyard. Thus, the search for alternative and more sustainable methods to control the major grapevine pathogens have increased the interest in new disease tolerant varieties. Chemical characterisation of these varieties is an important prerequisite to evaluate and promote their use on the global wine market. The aim of this project was to produce a comprehensive study of some promising new disease tolerant varieties recently introduced to the cultivation by identifying the peculiar aspects of their composition and measuring their positive and negative quality traits.

This is the main characteristic differing this from other winegrowing region in the world. The objective of this study was to characterize volatile profiles of sparkling wines produced by the traditional method, using Chenin Blanc and Syrah grapes, the two main varieties used for white and red wines, respectively, grown in the region. The sparkling wines remained on lees for six months maturing. The sparkling wines were characterized by the parameters density, pH, total titratable and volatile acidities, residual sugars, dry extract, alcohol content, total phenolic compounds, in vitro antioxidant activity and volatile fraction.

  • An Introduction to Muscat Bryce Wiatrak, 4 Mar 2021
    https://www.guildsomm.com/public_content/features/articles/b/bryce-wiatrak/posts/introduction-to-muscat The True Chameleon: An Introduction to Muscat Bryce Wiatrak, 4 Mar 2021. Wine lovers often marvel at the tremendous versatility of Chardonnay. Ever the chameleon, Chardonnay gives us such disparate entities as Montrachet and Champagne; steely Chablis and buttery California examples; hordes of supermarket bottlings and a handful of botrytized Ruster Ausbruchs. What other grape offers so many wildly diverse expressions? I’ll name one: Muscat. True, Muscat is not one single variety, but a name given to hundreds of grapes. Yet even if you just consider what is arguably the most noble Muscat, Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains, you’ll find a multitude of styles, including an array of sparkling wines, ranging from bone dry to a level of sweetest achieved by few other bubbles; alluring dry whites from grand cru terroirs and other pedigreed sites; dessert wines that might be harvested late, vinified from raisins, fortified, or some combination of the three; and even a few stray botrytized and ice wines. No other variety can claim such varied traditions, from appellations across the globe and in every imaginable climate. When considering wine’s great international varieties, Muscat is rarely quick to come to mind. That should change—for through studying Muscat alone, few wine styles and few corners of the world are left untouched. All in the Family According to Wine Grapes, more than 200 discrete grape varieties are called Muscat, in one language or another. This group is dispersed across the globe, encompassing cultivars of every hue, fermented into virtually every conceivable style.

  • Gli Aromi Dei Moscati Con Particolare Riferimento a Quelli Del Moscato Giallo
    Gli aromi dei Moscati con particolare riferimento a quelli del Moscato Giallo Accademico Rocco Di Stefano Introduzione Vanno sotto il nome di aromatiche le uve dotate di un sensibile contenuto in composti terpenici appartenenti soprattutto alla classe degli alcoli mono, di e triidossilati, degli eteri e degli acidi (Williams et al., 1980). Anche idrocarburi monoterpenici e sesquiterpenici sono stati segnalati (Stevens et al., 1966; Schreier et al., 1976). Sebbene tale classificazione dovrebbe essere rivista in seguito all’identificazione di precursori di composti tiolici odorosi in certe uve (Darriet et al., 1993), essa si adatta bene a quanto si percepisce a livello sensoriale al momento della degustazione delle uve. Per l’espressione dei composti tiolici, invece, necessita l’intervento dei lieviti (Dubourdieu et al., 2006). Il giudizio di aromaticità delle uve, tuttavia, non dà alcuna informazione sulla natura delle diverse sottoclassi di terpenoli in esse presenti e non rende conto delle diverse sensazioni aromatiche che si avvertono alla degustazione. I lavori pionieristici di Usseglio-Tomasset (1966), di Usseglio-Tomasset et al. (1966), in cui erano state impiegate le tecniche analitiche più raffinate per quei tempi, con la scrupolosità che distingueva questo grande personaggio, avevano provato che il linalolo era l’alcol terpenico responsabile dell’aroma di Moscato. Non aveva identificato altri composti terpenici, quali il nerolo e il geraniolo, in quanto non aveva trovato alcun composto, fra quelli presenti negli estratti di mosto di uva Moscato bianco, che avesse gli stessi tempi di ritenzione in GC, né gli stessi Rf in cromatografia su strato sottile degli standard puri di questi composti analizzati nelle stesse condizioni cromatografiche.

However, the lack of resistance genes to fungal diseases like powdery and downy mildew (Uncinula necator and Plasmopara viticola) makes it necessary the application of huge amounts of chemical products in vineyard. Thus, the search for alternative and more sustainable methods to control the major grapevine pathogens have increased the interest in new disease tolerant varieties. Chemical characterisation of these varieties is an important prerequisite to evaluate and promote their use on the global wine market. The aim of this project was to produce a comprehensive study of some promising new disease tolerant varieties recently introduced to the cultivation by identifying the peculiar aspects of their composition and measuring their positive and negative quality traits.

Constable, Agriculture Victoria Research Elizabeth Tassie, Tassie Viticultural Consulting Suzanne McLoughlin, Vinehealth Australia Acknowledgements: The project team gratefully acknowledge: • Mardi Longbottom and Nuredin Habili of the Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI) for reviewing the literature review, the pest risk assessment and the preliminary sampling trial included in this report. • The growers in South Australia and Victoria who availed their vineyards for the GPGV preliminary sampling trial work. • Crop Health Services virology team and AWRI for their molecular diagnostic skill. AWRI provided in kind diagnostic testing for the laboratory comparison of testing. • Colleagues in other states and territories for updates and information on GPGV diagnostic testing done in their jurisdiction. • International colleagues who provided personal insights and unpublished information about GPGV for this review. • Vine Industry Nursery Association, Australian Grapevine Foundation Planting Service, Barossa Vine improvement, Adelaide Hills Vine Improvement, Langhorne Creek Vine Improvement, McLaren Vale Vine Improvement, Riverland Vine Improvement Committee, Western Australian Vine Improvement Association, and Vinehealth Australia who provided funding for the preliminary sampling trial.

Project #1: Evaluation of Performance and Cultural Practices of Promising Winegrape Varieties Investigators: Imed Dami, Diane Kinney, Andrew Kirk, and Todd Steiner Project Type: Research and Extension Status: On-going Trial Location: OARDC-Wooster, AARS-Kingsville Objectives: The OSU Viticulture-Enology Program has evaluated more than 60 varieties in the past 10 years. The majority of recent variety planting in Ohio results from recommendations by the OSU viticulture and enology program. Examples include: Cabernet franc, Pinot gris, Chambourcin, Traminette, Noiret, Marquette, LaCrescent, and Frontenac to list a few. Variety evaluation consisted of determining the viticultural and enological performances and identifying the pros and cons of these varieties grown under Ohio climates. From the current project, we have identified more than 10 varieties that performed well and thus have been recommended for planting commercially in Ohio. In 2014, the variety trial in the Wooster site sustained 70% vine loss (vs. 20% in Kingsville). We have 3 years’ worth of data from the Wooster trial, but only 2 years from Kingsville. The Kingsville plot has many varieties that were planted later than in Wooster thus vines are young and do not have sufficient data to make any recommendations.
