  • Frost Resistance of Grapevine Cultivars of Different Origin
    340 Section 4 Frost resistance of grapevine cultivars of different origin P. C!NDRIC, N. KoRAc Faculty of Agriculture, University of Novi Sad, YU-2100 Novi Sad, Yugoslavia S u m m a r y : The tescs of resistance to low temperature which included a large number of grapevine cultivars showed that the cultivars bore sign of their ecological-geographical and genetic origins with respect to the resistance to low temperature. The tests, conduaed over several years, consisted of exposing cuttings of annual shoots to low temperature in a cold chamber. The tests were repeated thrre times each winter, following the uniform method and time, in order to be able to distinguish relative differences in the degree of resistance between the cultivan tested. Most cultivars from Western Europe (occidenra/is NEGR., gallica Nl:'M.) had a high degree ofresistanee to low temperature. They tended to reach the peak of the resistance in mid winter. The cultivars from the continental part of the Balkans (pontica NEGR., balcanica NEGR.) were unanimously sensitive to low temperature. The cultivars from the warm Mediterranean climate of Southern Europe (pomica NEGR., balcanica NEGR. and occidentalis NEGR., iberica NEM.) were still more sensitive than the cultivars in the previously mentioned group. The wine cultivars developed from imerspecific crosses of European grapevines and American species exhibited a high degree of resistance in the middle and at the end of winter while the hybrids vinifera x amurensis were highly resistant at the beginning and in the middle of winter. Both groups can be used as donors of resistance to low temperature in programs of breeding cold hardy grapevine cultivars.

    The Kosovar wine cluster: A booster for regional development? Gajo M. VANKA1, Wim J.M. HEIJMAN2 1Department of Social Sciences, Economics of Consumers and Households Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands 2Department of Social Sciences, Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands Abstract: Kosovo is an economy in transition with a high unemployment, a young population and structural problems. Clusters could be considered as an appropriate approach to develop the region. Th is paper deals with the economic pro- spects of the Kosovar wine cluster, its current opportunities and the introduction of new approaches. Th e analysis was based on the Porter’s innovation theory and the diamond model. Th e Kosovar wine sector could be a promising example for the future cluster development. Wine has a long history in Kosovo although wine consumption is not widespread. Th is paper presents the main problems and opportunities within this sector, describing its structural changes and current developments. Th e study aims to introduce its readers to the potential that the cluster development can off er as well as to understand the local circumstances. Its main focus is therefore to introduce the advantages and opportunities that clusters could bring to this sector, considering the three pillars of sustainable development, namely economic growth, environmen- tal and social development, and achieving competitiveness. Key words: agribusiness sector, business clusters, competitiveness, diamond model, Kosovo, Porter’s innovation theory, Serbia, sustainable development, wine. This research examines sustainable development winemaking all makes this sector attractive to foreign in Kosovo by focusing on the interaction between agencies and investors.

  • 'Terroir' the Port Vineyards Are Located in the North East of Portugal in The
    Geography and ‘terroir’ The Port vineyards are located in the north east of Portugal in the mountainous upper reaches of the Douro River Valley. This region lies about 130 kilometres inland and is protected from the influence of the Atlantic Ocean by the Marão mountains. The vineyard area is hot and dry in summer and cold in winter, excellent conditions for producing the concentrated and powerful wines needed to make port. The coastal area is humid and temperate, providing the ideal conditions in which to age the wine. The grapes are grown and turned into wine in the vineyards of the Douro Valley. In the spring following the harvest, the wine is brought down to the coast to be aged in the warehouses of the Port houses, known as ‘lodges’. The ‘lodges’ are located in Vila Nova de Gaia, a town located on the south bank of the River Douro facing the old city of Oporto. Until about sixty years ago, the wine was brought down the river from the vineyards to the coast in traditional boats called ‘barcos rabelos’. Most of the vineyards are planted on the steep hillsides of the Douro River valley and those of its tributaries, such as the Corgo, the Távora and the Pinhão. The oldest vineyards are planted on ancient walled terraces, some made over two hundred years ago. These have been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Douro Valley is considered to be one of the most beautiful and spectacular vineyard areas in the world. The soil of the Douro Valley is very stony and is made up of schist, a kind of volcanic rock.

  • Kopke Colheita Port 1957
    KOPKE COLHEITA PORT 1957 PORT WINE | PORTUGAL TASTE HISTORY WITH THE OLDEST PORT WINE HOUSE Taste history with the oldest brand of Port wine. Every wine tells a story. Kopke's Colheitas, however, tell a unique story. To taste a wine is to taste history and, in the case of this 1957 Colheita, it means remembering a remarkable event like the signature of the Treaty of Rome, which established the European Economic Community (EEC). VINIFICATION The wine-making process includes the halting of fermentation by adding the grape brandy, the blending of different wines and the ageing of the resulting wine. Fermentation takes place in vats (lagares) at a controlled temperature of 29°C, until the right degree of sweetness (bau- mé) is achieved, at which point the grape brandy is added. A wine of high quality, made from one single harvest. A Colheita wine matures in oak barrels for periods of time that can vary, but never less than 7 years. It is then bottled and sold according to the demands of the market. TASTING NOTES Amber colour with bright golden hues. Complex and delicate on the nose, it reveals resin-like aromas well combined with notes of almond, honey and candied orange peel. Sweet, elegant and balanced on the palate, nicely wrapped in hints of caramel. A long and enduring finish. RECOMMENDATIONS Ideal with walnut and almond cakes. Best served at a temperature between 12 and 14°C.
