wine will be more alcoholic wine by global warming

Source: Area wine
The wine industry is worried about the effects that this phenomenon can result in grapes. Scientists seek to temper them.

According to a note published in El Pais, the consequences of global warming on the wine industry aroused increasing interest, among other things, because producers are beginning to suffer its effects.
The Third World Congress Wine and Climate Change held last week in Marbella, the Master of Wine Country Pancho raised his glass to claim the Grenache, a "chameleon grape" as key variety in the adaptation of the wineries in Mediterranean countries to weather conditions tougher. The same conclusion was reached some months earlier, a group of experts at a seminar held in Barbastro (capital of wine country Somontano Aragon) with the same subject. They were launched several alerts. On the one hand, that the wines are more alcoholic (alcohol strength has increased, in some cases, of 10-11 º to 14 to 14.5 º), with more PH and lower natural acidity. On the other hand, some will lose their red color, other flavors and lost many qualities typical white varieties. It was also noted that perhaps, increase the proportion of reds against whites.
regard, Ignacio Fernandez, then Head of the Economics and Law at the International Wine Organisation (OIV), indicated that the native varieties, along with changes in field practices, innovation (to remove alcohol to wine through fermentation, for example) and research into new products, are the most important time to adapt. Meanwhile, to mitigate the effects, called for environmental management, reduced water consumption and CO2 emissions, a measure of carbon footprint and maintenance of the living trees with vines, like Aleppo or olive trees, not to convert those monoculture plantations.

Fernandez spoke of blossoms and grape harvests increasingly advanced and extreme weather events: peaks of high and low temperatures, longer dry periods broken by torrential rains. He referred to "temperature stress" of plants, as well as acceleration and maturity mismatches, lower productivity and risks of pests and diseases which now did not exist.

"Spain is one of the areas most affected by climate change," he said after noting how the increased degree of average global temperature shifts the limits of wine production 100 miles north. "The fact that there are now 1,000 acres of wine in the United States was unthinkable 150 years ago. Meanwhile, the southern boundary will be conditioned by the availability of water," he concluded.



According to the group of experts meeting in Barbastro, some effects of climate change are: Soups
more alcoholics, with higher pH and lower acidity natural.
Loss of color and flavor of some reds. Loss
typical qualities in some white.
possibility of an increased proportion of red versus white.

A very special winemaker who debuted with "The Enemy"

Alejandro Vigil is an unconventional winemaker. Is at the forefront of the wine cellar and now ultra top solo releases.

For there is no post that many may have in mind what happens behind closed doors in a warehouse the size of Catena Zapata, but Alejandro Vigil or @ Alemalbec
(as is his nickname on Twitter) is thus understood laburo well and carries the same passion to the vineyard and the bottle.

A tourist walks by and do not understand much of what explains Vigil. He is talking of "making ends wines, Argentine wines that pass the barrier of $ 50, quality of the vineyard, the group of people who works on the farm ... While this account, tweets, answers the phone and gives instructions to one of the operators. While think the presentation of a wine that is his and his partner Adrian Catena, in the hold Aleanna. "All the winemakers want their own wine 'and' but I waited, I took my time," he says in this informal chat, recording or scoring the sentences in order to retain flying nonstop.

Then we talked about the photo unorthodox to present the wine, which we see in this paper. He says he has to make another style of "vendetta" of the Italian Mafia, biting his finger. At this point no one will doubt that we are facing an unusual character in the world of reds.

That's Alejandro Vigil, although their scrolls show someone much more serious and focused, a model student, a high average university. He graduated as an agronomist at the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, National University of Cuyo, where he completed a Masters in Enology and Irrigation and a Master Course in Microclimate Definition and incidence in wine. He began his career in the INTA and the Catena family there.

Well, all this to tell that Vigil is presenting its first solo wine, that is outside of what is the pyramid of Catena Zapata, where for years he took over the wine, this winery recognized throughout the world.

Inquiry Letter Sample

who has read

Beautiful Manifesto for reading, the writer of Extremadura, Álvaro Valverde


Happy are those who have read. That in childhood, through stories, he discovered the world. That in adolescence, in the middle of nowhere, he learned to find in the dark even this refuge in the shelter of time. Who young, eternal beauty, sensed in reading live for the moment was the best remedy against that which flees. One who, mature, lost as ever, clung to some pages to postpone death. Who, in short, old already, read to win the battle against oblivion.

Happy are those who have read because the road is short and only reading can live lives that prevents existence. These lives of others who magically become their own. Happy
who has read and found solace in books to their problems or love is missing or the sweet joy that overcomes the sadness. Who has cried alone to read a verse or a hidden passage in a novel.
Happy letraherido, the melancholic, who, alone, in a book called the friend who misses when going down the street. Happy
who has read and has his eyes pinned to a poem and his memory is clinging to a story. Who thinks like think that test. He who feels a Greek in exile, or perhaps a pending Japanese haiku or an Arab who evokes the sounds of water, or an American who sings himself. Happy
who has read and has been building its own library, and each book is a record close, an indelible moment of what is fugitive. And a form of criticism, because not everything goes. Happy
who has read in sunny rooms and public libraries have felt the shadow of a thousand characters that populate the volumes stacked around. Happy
who, like Borges, no boasts of what he has written, however, is proud of what you read. Who, as Jaime Gil de Viedma, the mention of the word poetry will not raise the image of a man writing a poem, but of a man reading a poem. Happy
who has traveled without having walked a foreign country. Or that since the fourth goes further than even the fastest traveler. Which is cosmopolitan and lives in the province's books without a country, because the reader is someone who knows no frontiers. Happy
who has read and distressing for all those who have not found that pleasure perfect.

Hot Pink Shower Curtain

"This year's harvest in Uruguay all raw materials of excellent quality"


Source: Bodegas del Uruguay

will reach a historic vintage? In the vineyard, the harvest begins with pruning (July-August), therein lies the plant to mobilize its reserves, budding, the subsequent leaf development, flowering, ripening, maturing, ripening. After pruning, there was a normal sprouting, there was no frost, but there were cold nights, there was a good temperature range. In time of maturity that is great for the plant, because the whole plant development and all that is happening inside you need heat during the day and cold at night. Occurs naturally in some places, such as in Salto, but this year was also in the south. This year's harvest Uruguay all raw materials of excellent quality.
What happened after sprouting?

somehow be started with a significant water stress, that in some vineyards negatively impacted. At some points it rained, but it just rained. There is a critical moment that goes from the time of fruit set (from flower to fruit) until veraison (when the acid begins to turn into sugar), which is providing cellular development, ie, 75% of the kernel is water . If at this stage lacks water, the grain is smaller. So he had the chance, watered, I think many vineyards had to invest irrigation. And there was a general level of grain size smaller, which means less kilos per hectare. This already creates a natural concentration: in a large grain, there is more water, and all the anthocyanins, the pigments and scents are diluted, but in a smaller grain, the amount of flavor and color will be the same , but you get concentration. Viewed from there, as the raw material is spectacular.
What other events were added to the initial water stress? He

something that surprised me was the pH of the grape to me had a pH ideal ... 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 ... between 3.4 and 3.6, when ever we obtained a pH between 3.8 and 3.9. The degree of acidity, measured pH, handles all the variables: the aroma, color, stability. The ideal pH is between 3.4 wine. and 3.5, is the range where it was almost everybody.
turn, due to the large temperature range, there was a large sugar content, unusual. Let's consider: a medium grit, an ideal pH, an important sugar content, and not an excessive amount per hectare, due in part to the point guy, there was a small decline. Also there were fewer pesticide treatments because conditions were not conducive to a proliferation of diseases.
Finally, throughout this maturation ranging from veraison to harvest almost no rain! There was no humidity! I was surprised. I am looking at three or four forecasts per day, and I was surprised the percentage of moisture. One could harvest at will. This is what occurred in 2004, but not analytical conditions were ideal this year. Seeing that you had ideal weather for harvesting when they wanted, ideal laboratory parameters, a decline in kg / ha without meaning, if the producer had worked a little vineyard in cluster thinning and leaf removal, now got a raw material out of series .


varieties Between what was favored?

were the white variety: sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, Viognier, Gewürztraminer, the muscat, all these varieties are very susceptible to disease so as to achieve a high sugar content. Among these, the most favored was undoubtedly the sauvignon blanc and muscat. And the red varieties, Cabernet sauvignon no doubt, because it is the one with the longest cycle, which mature last, then, as it always rain before it matures, it never ends the process of maturation. The Tannat and Merlot or need to talk. In contrast, the cabernet sauvignon was left on the ground until he reached the ideal analytical parameter. In extremes, the sauvignon blanc and cabernet sauvignon were the most favored.
reap Already finished?


The harvest ended on Friday 8 April. There may still some botrytis, because that is also a good year. That leaves a cluster on the ground in an extraordinary way, now with a little moisture is in ideal conditions.
What about the concentration of sugar when it becomes alcohol?

We'll have wine with an alcohol content high enough. For white wines and young reds will be complicated. But keep wines that are barrel about a year and a half, and then spend two years in bottle, the alcohol benefits them. However, it is a general problem when wines are obtained with a high alcohol percentage. What
us about the competition you can advance to the World Tannat?

Tannat The fourth edition of the World will be held in Montevideo in November. The competition is under the rules of the International Organization of Vine and Wine, OIV, is audited and endorsed by it, and will submit its Director General, Mr. Federico Castellucci, and a representative of the International Union of Winemaking, UIŒ, which can be su Presidente, Serge Dubois, o algún delegado directo de él, lo que le da gran importancia. El jurado estará integrado por directivos de las Asociaciones de Enólogos de Brasil, Chile y Argentina, y también por reconocidos enólogos uruguayos. Para su realización es importante el apoyo que recibimos de las bodegas uruguayas, que se suman a éste.
¿Además de Uruguay, Argentina y Brasil, hay probabilidad de que se inscriban vinos de más países?

El año pasado nos sorprendieron algunos Tannat que vinieron de Perú por su calidad, Chile aún no ha enviado muestras a los concursos anteriores, Argentina sí, Brasil también. Y la expectativa de este año is to submit copies of French Tannat of Madiran, pushed by the presence of directors of the UIŒ, we hope to come at least two or three samples. Because somehow, the birth of Tannat is France, Madiran.
Competition will take place in two days. Last year we received about 200 samples, this year we hope to exceed that figure. Globally, the World contest Tannat is registered and has the stamp of Uruguay, is the heritage of the Winemakers' Association of Uruguay. Tannat say is talk about our flagship variety, and this in the wine world is to establish a heritage. And in that environment, it is right to bring medals Brazilian wines, or Argentine wines, is precisely the fact that the variety is rewarded. This win recognition, and this helps to sell. As a single varietal Tannat contest the World, which is international, which is endorsed by the OIV and the UIŒ, it is very important.

As you say, the creation of Tannat the World contest, as well as its organization, is credited with the Winemakers' Association of Uruguay. What other activity also displays the Association? We

, winemakers, we spent all our spare time after 6 pm. We work in the warehouse, but after working for the Association in an honorary capacity. Our profession is very sentimental. In the cellar we always receive trainees from the School of Oenology, and all Gurises we say the same thing: if you really feel the profession continue, if not, devote themselves to something else. Because it takes passion to dedicate himself to winemaking, we have to give passion to the grape and wine, you do not mind staying twenty hours in the hold, or work on Saturdays and Sundays. If one is doing what he likes, he feels it is working. And there are many people like that.
For example, when the harvest began, and began to check their analytical quality, we said that this year we had to do tastings of all varieties. The Association began two years ago to thematic tastings monthly. Every month we chose a variety met with as much potential exponents of all holds, we gathered in a place where the samples were coded, were made formal tastings tab, tasting glasses, time, score. When concluded, the time devoted to comments. Because the idea was just trained tasters. When one participates as a taster in competitions, and one knows only the variety and year, and must try to convey in one or two minutes, he felt, and transform it into a number ... We must have the ability to transform into numbers everything you saw and tasted!. The task is to teach the winemakers taste. That was the idea of \u200b\u200bthemed tastings.
Then it turned to the "assessment of crops", for example, were held last year tasting chardonnay and sauvignon blanc in April and May, for testing by exponents from around the country, how was the harvest. Also we did with Merlot, Tannat and Cabernet. This year especially, the idea is to make these tastings with a more focus to be evaluated. Because this year I think everyone will have good examples. I think if you meet ten, thirteen, or fifteen Sauvignon Blanc this year, everyone will be impeccable, because the harvest were given to clean. The aim would be formed in the head a conceptual evaluation "This year there are good Chardonnay ... Merlot is good ...", and purpose of all this is after trying to produce a harvest report:" The 2011 harvest was positive for sauvignon, cabernet and chardonnay. They tend to certain scents, or a certain color, or a certain level ...".

years ago that we are working with this and we can not give way. We want to achieve perform an annual evaluation. Although it is difficult to transmit these results to the paper. How do you say that some variety in a given year did not work, and publish it? This objective is our challenge, and like others we are serving, we hope to achieve.

Does Brown Mucus Mean Am About To Start My Period

Justice ruled in favor of Rioja producers against a claim


Source: MDZ
The Federal Court rejected a request from the Council of the Denomination of Origin Rioja Spain against the producers of La Rioja in Argentina. The claim was because of an appellation of origin that the mark presitigia "Rioja" of Spain for their products and who feels aggrieved by the use of "La Rioja" on product labels Argentines.

The National Court of First Instance in the Federal Administrative No. 4 rejected the application filed by the Regulatory Board of Denomination of Origin Rioja of Spain against the State for the purpose of challenging the use of Geographical Indication "La Rioja Argentina" by wine producers in the province. As was discussed in the arguments presented by the INV, the judge deemed to have been taken all necessary steps laid down in Article 23 of the Agreement on Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) which states that if homonymous geographical indications for wines, protection shall be accorded to each indication and each shall determine the conditions practices in which the homonymous indications in question, bearing in mind the need to ensure that the producers concerned are treated equitably and that consumers are not misled.

This ruling is important because it endorses the philosophical position that historically supports Argentina in international forums. This position has been stated clearly in the bi-regional negotiation Mercosur - European Union was interrupted in 2004 and raised again now in this new round of negotiations.

The TRIPS Argentina respects it is quite clear on what should be protected in geographical indications and, moreover, it is clear to contemplate the possibility of homonyms and to seek mechanisms to not infringe anyone's rights. This ruling is in line with the philosophy of Argentina to respect international agreements and a strong defense of their wine regions.
