Orange wine tradition: from book to documentary
It's a new wine style, with which Anglo-Saxons for convenience have labelled wines produced from white grapes through prolonged maceration. The fermented wort remains in contact with the grape skins, drawing from them tannins and the golden orange colour with tendencies to amber, "Orange", in fact. …
Gravner: a cross-border winegrower and his particular way of making wine
Gravner is considered one of the fathers of strict viticulture both in Italy and abroad. Strict winemaking in the cellar means not to filter, not to clarify or to bend to practices that are not the minimum of the roasting during the fermentation, with using only a bit of sulphur - but very little - …
Effect of fermentation temperature on polyphenolic composition and sensory properties of red Vranac wines1
Vranac grapes are exceptionally rich in colouring matter contained mostly in the skin, flesh and juice of the berry. Until 2005, no detailed research has been conducted to examine the technological factors that affect the polyphenolic potential of this variety.

At the same time as the experimental tests carried out with Ersa, the group of researchers at the University of Udine has started to deal with various water deficit projects, coordinated by prof. Enrico Peterlunger, focusing on the effect that the water deficit has not only on the physiology of the …
Water stress and water emergence by 2040
Water stress is a temporary or prolonged condition of lack of water, usually lacking at ground level. As all plant stresses, it can result in primary damage or secondary damage to a plant.
According to the World Resources Institute's report (WRI), which measured the demand and availability of water…
Quality of grapes and quality of wine: how to enhance an indispensable combination
Il Simposio, dal titolo "Qualità delle uve e qualità del vino: come valorizzare un connubio imprescindibile” si svolgerà il 18 Giugno 2016 presso la sala convegni della Villa Nachini Cabassi. Il convegno nasce dalla collaborazione tra lo studio Perleuve srl di Cormons, il Dipartimento di Scienz…
Evaluation of resistance, agronomic and oenological evaluation
The evaluation mainly concerned resistance to downy mildew and, secondly, resistance to grey mildew. Two genes for dendritic downy mildew resistance and two genes for grey mildew resistance were worked out. In the early years, the selection of downy mildew resistant varieties was based on field obse…
Genetic identification for Grapevine Diversity Exploration Project
The first application of the SSR markers to the Serbian grapevine germplasm, in order to provide reference descriptors for the identification and evaluation of genetic relationships of local cultivars, was carried out in the framework of project, financed by the Ministry of Education and Science o…
Enhance defence through a shared georeferenced cloud network
Thanks to a pilot project involving the interconnection of embedded devices to a cloud network, these data and this detection methodology are now shared among consultants and technicians working in the vine industry.
