Reasons for this bias likely include hybrid cultivars being perceived as lower quality than European cultivars, lack of knowledge of available hybrid cultivars, personal preference, and misinformation.

Read, Extension Horticulturist and Professor of Horticulture Stephen J. Gamet, Research Technologist In recent years, interest in grape production and win- ery development has increased tremendously in Nebraska and the Midwest. This increased interest has led to a need for detailed information on vineyard establishment and commercial grape production. A successful winery must have a ready source of consistently high- quality fruit that is available every year. Fortunately for Nebraska growers, many locations through- out the state provide the essential resources of quality soil, water, and abundant sunshine. The experience of growers and University of Nebraska– Lincoln research have demon- strated that many sites are suitable for growing grapes of excellent quality that can be finished into wines of excep- tional quality.

Stafne I’m Not Liking What I See... • William McGlynn Walking through the Perkins vineyard this late winter and early spring I saw several varieties with a crusted exudate stuck to the vine. When I snapped it off, I was not surprised to see a hole where an insect had bored into the vine. Is this unusual? Unfortunately, no, at least here in Oklahoma. This borer is the grape cane borer (also called the apple twig borer). It is drawn to stressed and damaged vines. I suspect their infes- tation is primarily due to the Easter 2007 freeze event. Vines are still in various stages of recovery. Even though some varieties such as Cynthi- ana showed no outward injury or damage effects from that freeze, I have Inside this issue: still seen some holes in those vines.

Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Faculty of Science and Technology, P.zza Universitá 5, 39100 Bolzano-Bozen, Italy Abstract The effects induced by climatic changes have become more and more evident in wine regions located in mountain areas during the last years. The trend toward an increasing warming of the temperature is determining new ripening dynamics of grape berries that often lead to excessive sugar accumulation in fruits and alcohol development in wines. This fact somehow conflicts with the actual trend of wine markets that is increasingly asking for fresh, easy-to-drink, low alcohol wines. Moreover, other important quality traits of grapes and wines such as color, aroma, acidity and pH are detrimentally affected by ripening processes that occur largely during the hottest period of the season. Against this background, we aimed with this work to investigate the potentiality of different canopy management techniques to control and postpone the ripening process of Sauvignon blanc grapes.
