  • Strategic Development of Varietal Vineyards in the Czech Republic
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS AGRICULTURAE ET SILVICULTURAE MENDELIANAE BRUNENSIS Volume LX 43 Number 2, 2012 STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT OF VARIETAL VINEYARDS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC J. Sedlo, P. Tomšík Received: November 30, 2011 Abstract SEDLO, J., TOMŠÍK, P.: Strategic development of varietal vineyards in the Czech Republic. Acta univ. agric. et silvic. Mendel. Brun., 2012, LX, No. 2, pp. 325–334 The paper describes strategic changes in the structure of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) varieties grown in the Czech Republic. In 2004–2005, (i.e. a er the admission of the Czech Republic into the EU) expenditures associated with restructuralisation and transformation of vineyards amounted for CZK 25,423 thous. The authors examine the development taking place in this domain within the last 50 years (i.e. from 1960 to 2010) and pay detailed attention to the period of 1989 to 2010. The paper analyses reasons of these changes and tries to describe the future development expected a er 2010. The current production potential of the Czech Republic are 19,633.45 hectares of vineyards. For the time being, there are in average 1.07 wine growers per hectare of vineyards. As compared with 1960, the acreage of vineyards has doubled up and the number of the most frequent varieties has also increased. Within the period of 1989–1990, four varieties (i.e. Müller Thurgau, Green Veltliner, Italian Riesling and Sankt Laurent) occupied more than 60 % of the total vineyards area in the Czech Republic, whereas at present there are altogether 8 varieties (Müller Thurgau, Green Veltliner, Italian Riesling, Rhein Riesling, Sauvignon, Sankt Laurent, Blaufrankish, and Zweigeltrebe) at the nearly the same acreage.

  • 45. REASONS for WINE TOURISM in BULGARIA M. Pereviazko, K.O
    45. REASONS FOR WINE TOURISM IN BULGARIA M. Pereviazko, K.O. Veres National University of Food Technologies Wine tourism industry in Western Europe, especially in France and Italy are much more developed than in Bulgaria. But this is not due to the quality of drinks. Geographically, Bulgaria is located in the same climate zone as Spain, France and Italy - the major wine regions of the world. Just like these countries, It is considered one of the centers of cultivation of grapes. Scientists believe that the Thracians in the territory of modern Bulgaria made first wine in Europe. Eater the Greeks to find out from the Thracians secret receipt of grapes divine drink and arrogated to themselves the right of the pioneers of winemaking. Why do people prefer wine tourism not just drink wine at home what bought in the store? First of all, people should be remembered that wine, as opposed to people do not like to travel. As experts consider, in a way it can "get sick." So before the 93 entertain friends by wine from faraway countries, give him a chance to "rest" at least a week. The beauty of wine tourism is not sightseeing. Meeting people who produce this drink it is remains in the memory. Real manufacturer is in love with his work, and talk with them is very interesting. Some aesthetes prefer to stay in the castles of winemakers, to communicate with these eminent people. Observation of the production of wine can cause at least surprising in an untrained person. Guests can still see how the grapes are crushed underfoot in small wineries in Bulgaria.

  • Bulgaria's Evolving Wine Market Presents New Opportunities Bulgaria
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 1/19/2018 GAIN Report Number: BU1810 Bulgaria Post: Sofia Bulgaria’s Evolving Wine Market Presents New Opportunities Report Categories: Wine Approved By: Jonn Slette Prepared By: Mila Boshnakova Report Highlights: Post forecasts Bulgaria’s 2017 grape crop at 250,000 metric tons (MT), most of which will be used to produce about 140 million liters of commercial wine. The Bulgarian wine sector continues to evolve, driven by investments in the sector, increasing disposable incomes, tourism, and thriving retail and hotel, restaurant, and catering (HORECA) sectors. Wine consumption increased in 2016 and consumer trends point to a growing preference for higher- quality wines. January-October 2017 data indicate a 24-percent increase in wine imports by volume and 21 percent by value. Poland, Sweden, China, and Russia were the top export markets for Bulgarian wine (value terms) in 2016 and in 2017. General Information: PRODUCTION FAS Sofia estimates that Bulgaria’s 2017 grape harvest will reach 250,000 MT, of which about 210,000 MT will be processed into 140 million liters of commercial wine. Other estimates predict that grape production will reach 350,000 MT and 150 million liters of commercial wine. At the end of November 2017 (source: Ministry of Agriculture (MinAg) Weekly Bulletin #49), harvest reports estimated 47,800 hectares (HA) yielded 238,000 MT of grapes, with an average yield of about 5.0 MT/HA. Weather during the year was mixed.

  • PRIMARY AROMATIC CHARACTER of WINES — Review —
    PRIMARY AROMATIC CHARACTER OF WINES — review — Ecaterina LENGYEL 1 Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Food Industry and Environmental Protection, “Lucian Blaga” University of Sibiu, Abstract: In this paper the current understanding of the accumulation of the flawours in grapes, mosts and wines is reviewed. The primary flavours are generally constituted by the terpenes and terpenoids, norisoprenoids, benzol derivatives, aliphatic and glycosidic substances, carotene substances. Keywords : primary varietal flavour, grape, wines, musts INTRODUCTION The primary varietal flavours accumulate in the peel and grape through the specific metabolism processes, being determined by the genetic nature of the varieties, by the specific pedological and climatic factors (Ti ța, 2004) (Pop, 2008). They can pass unmodified from grape to wine, in the case of the Muscat wine, or by changing chemical form (from bonded to free), especially in the case of semi aromatic and red wine varieties. The terpenoides represent the main odour substances class of Vitis vinifera grapes. They are especially responsible for the characteristic flavour of grapes, musts and Muscat wines, but they can also be found in the semi flavoured varieties (in small quantities, sometimes even below the olfactory perception capacity). The terpenoides can be classified in isoprenoids and norisoprenoids. The isoprenoids class contains the terpenes and the terpenes compounds. The isoprenoids have methyl-butadiene at their basis, being able to generate monoterpenes, diterpenes, triterpenes, caroterpenoids, etc. They contain the polymers of the isoprenoids, and the terepenes and terpenes compounds are a part of them. 1 Corresponding author.

  • 2014 Seven (White Blend)
    2014 SEVEN (WHITE BLEND) Tasting Notes: A refreshing and complex wine that appeals to all. Aromas of lemongrass, melon and pear lead into a velvety mid palate that is lightly sweetened. This is offset by juicy acidity which leads into a lingering finish with notes of pineapple. Winemaking Notes: This wine is made from a blend of seven white grapes. In order to help preserve the individual characteristics of those grapes each piece of the wine is fermented separately to be made into a single varietal then a portion of each of those wines is used to make this wine. Blending trials generally last for six to eight weeks while we create the best wine possible balancing not only the characteristics of each varietal, not letting any one grape dominate, but also balancing the acidity and sweetness so the wine remains refreshing while appealing to a variety of palates. This year was fun to blend as for the first time all seven grapes came from our estate vineyard. BeckenRidge vineyard is also represented in the Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Pinot gris. The seven grapes in order of most to least are: Müller Thurgau, Pinot gris, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay, Pinot blanc, Muscat Ottonel. Harvest Notes: The 2014 growing season is the warmest on record for the Willamette Valley. Our cooler estate vineyard on the edge of the Oregon Coast Range welcomed the few extra degrees of heat like a light summer blanket rather than a blistering heat wave at the end of the season. The extra warmth led to early sugar accumulation and then, fortunately, we received a small amount of rain prior to harvest.

Georgiev1*, P. Midova2 1Shato Danubia AD, Russe, Bulgaria 2Department of Commerce, Faculty of Industry and Commerce, D. A. Tsenov Academy of Economics, Svishtov, Bulgaria ABSTRACT Viticulture is one of the priorities of European agricultural policy. The sale of wine is successful when the product offered is competitive in the relevant market. The qualities of wine as a specific product are determined by the following factors - grape variety, wine taste, ecology of the region, wine production technology, etc. In this sense, Bulgaria has all the prerequisites for being among the leading wine producers in Europe and in the world. Our country has a tradition in the vine and wine sectors, in which funds continue to be invested. This is the main reason for the study to be focused on the wine market. The main objective of the scientific research paper is to outline the role of wine production in Bulgaria and to study sales in one of the wine regions - North Central. The subject of the study is the producers from the wine-growing region, members of the National Vine and Wine Chamber. In this regard, the survey was conducted in four of the seven companies, namely: Vinal AD., Lovech; Winery Pleven EAD, Pleven; Winery Svishtov AD., Svishtov and Loviko Lozari, Suhindol. The object of the study is the market indicators of the wine producers in the selected region.

Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract During the period 1994-2008, in the Institute of Viticulture and Enology - Pleven, a comparative study of the economic characteristics of newly-selected in Bulgaria wine varieties and vine clones was carried out. It was found that according to the mechanical analysis of the grapes of the studied interspecific varieties, they were typically wine with specific characteristics of the clusters and berries suitable for the production of quality red and white wines. These varieties had high fertility rate and productivity, increased resistance to biotic and abiotic stress and were suitable to be grown on different training systems in all viticultural regions of Bulgaria. The analyzed data of many years from the grapes physico-chemical analysis of the studied clones of wine varieties showed that they were superior compared to the population of the respective variety mainly in the cluster size and mass and not so much in the berry size. The clones had a more intense rate of sugars accumulation in the grapes, while maintaining a good level of titratable acidity. The wine quality produced from the clones was better in comparison to wine from the population of the respective varieties. Key words: vine, wine variety, clone, economic characteristics Introduction accumulation over time of the genetic mutations in Grapes and wine quality are directly their genotypes, thus populations are a set of dependent on the variety and its morphological, variations with positive and negative qualities agro-biological and technological characteristics.
