    OHIO AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTER 2019 Grape Maturity at OSU Research Vineyards Imed Dami, Diane Kinney, Andy Kirk, Yvonne Woodworth, The Ohio State University. Thanks to the continuous interest by Ohio growers and vintners and support by the Ohio Grape Industries Committee, we are pleased to resume monitoring fruit maturity progression of varieties grown at the research vineyards during the 2019 season. This information will be sent weekly to OGEN subscribers and posted on the program website, Buckeye Appellation. The date of berry sampling and corresponding heat units or growing degree days (GDD) are included. Note that the GDD in your location could be higher or lower than that at our sites. For example, at the Wooster research vineyard, grape ripening of similar varieties is typically 1 to 2 weeks behind central and southern Ohio, and 1 to 2 weeks ahead of more northern latitude vineyards and on Lake Erie shores. To determine the GDD in your location, visit the OSU-GDD Calculator.

The regulations are particularly severe for wine and include various aspects of the viticulture practices and winemaking techniques. Nevertheless, the use of phenolic profiles for quality control is still fragmented and incomplete, even if they are a promising tool for quality evaluation. Only a few methods have been already validated and widely applied, and an integrated approach is in fact still missing because of the complex dependence of the chemical profile of wine on many viticultural and enological factors, which have not been clarified yet. For example, there is a lack of studies about the phenolic composition in relation to the wine authenticity of white and especially rosé wines. This review is a bibliographic account on the approaches based on phenolic species that have been developed for the evaluation of wine quality and frauds, from the grape varieties (of V.

They are grown in home gardens for fruit and landscape the lives of New purposes or commercially for wine, raisins, or fresh consumption as “table” grapes. A cultivated variety, or “cultivar,” is a formal term for Mexicans through variety. Variety is the more common term, and will be used in this publication. Selecting grape varieties that are adapted to prevailing academic, research, climatic and soil conditions is an important step before planting. Very few locations above 6,000 feet in elevation are successful grape pro- and Extension duction sites. Suitable growing conditions at lower elevations are still very site-specific due to the major threat to grape culture: winter or programs. frost injury. Winter injury occurs at subfreezing temperatures during vine dormancy when no green tissue is present. Frost injury occurs at subfreezing temperatures when green tissue is present. A variety’s win- ter hardiness, or ability to withstand cold temperatures, depends on its genetic makeup or “type.” In addition to winter hardiness, other considerations when selecting a variety are its fruit characteristics, number of frost-free days required for ripening, disease susceptibility, yield potential, growth habit, and other cultural requirements.

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.

    Summary of Results: Wine Grape Variety Trial for Maritime Western Washington 2000-2008 Wine Grape Cultivar Trials 2000-2008 in the Cool Maritime Climate of Western WA Gary Moulton, Carol Miles, Jacqueline King, and Charla Echlin WSU Mount Vernon NWREC 16650 State Route 536, Mount Vernon, WA 98273 Tel. 360-848-6150 Email [email protected] http://extension.wsu.edu/maritimefruit/Pages/default.aspx Wines produced from grapes grown in cool climate regions have generally low alcohol content, low viscosity, and high fruit aromas and flavor (Casteel, 1992; Jackson and Schuster, 1977; Zoecklein, 1998). Certain varietals from Germany, Austria Russia, Hungary, and Armenia, as well as some common French varieties such as Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris can produce excellent fruity wines in western Washington. Selection of the right clone is important and knowing the heat units of your site will greatly aid in the selection of which varieties to grow. The cool maritime region of western Washington is on the very low end of the spectrum with respect to the number of growing degree days (GDD) needed for ripening the more common wine grape cultivars. Although the Puget Sound region has a long growing season in terms of frost free days, mesoclimates within the area range from below 1200 GDD to 2200 GDD. The Washington State University Mount Vernon Northwestern Washington Research and Extension Center (WSU Mount Vernon NWREC) research site is located at 12 feet above sea level in the Skagit Valley floodplain, 3 miles from the Puget Sound. Since 2002, annual GDD averaged 1693; in 2003 there was a spike in GDD of 1965.

Received: 21 July 2020; Accepted: 8 August 2020; Published: 12 August 2020 Abstract: The Swedish wine industry has exponentially grown in the last decade. However, Swedish wines remain largely unknown internationally. In this study, the typicality and sensory space of a set of twelve wines, including five Swedish Solaris wines, was evaluated blind by Swedish wine experts. The aim of the work was to evaluate whether the Swedish wine experts have a common concept of what a typical Solaris wines should smell and taste like or not and, also, to bring out more information about the sensory space and chemical composition of Solaris wines. The results showed a lack of agreement among the wine experts regarding the typicality of Solaris wines. This, together with the results from the sensory evaluation, could suggest the possibility of different wine styles for Solaris wines.
