17th INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM GiESCO 2011

Group of International Experts of Vitivinicultural Systems for CoOperation

Asti – Alba, Italy

August 29 th – September 2 nd , 2011

GESCO was the original acronym for "Groupe d'Etude des Systèmes de COnduite de la vigne". It was started, as European

group, by Alain Carbonneau and others, and was originally, as the name implies, focused on training systems. The group

grew, become International, and the focus on training systems was dropped. Recently the group renamed itself to:

"Group of International Experts of vitivinicultural Systems for CoOperation".

Foreword to the 17th Symposium GiESCO 2011

The 17th International Symposium GiESCO 2011 (Group of International Experts of Vitivinicultural Systems for

CoOperation) takes place from August 29 th till September 2 nd at the "Viticulture and Enology Sciences Master" of Turin

University (Asti and Alba) - Italy, under the patronage of OIV (International Organization for Vine and Wine), Accademia

Italiana della Vite e del Vino, Piedmont regional Government, Italian Agricultural Minister, and the Chaire UNESCO

Culture et Traditions du Vin. The Symposium covers many fields of viticultural sciences, and collects about 150

presentations (oral and poster) by researchers and scientists from 17 countries.

GESCO was the original acronym for "Groupe d'Etude des Systèmes de COnduite de la vigne". It was started, as

European group, by Alain Carbonneau and other colleagues, and, as the name implies, was originally focused on training

systems. The group grew, took in researchers out of Europe, and extended its scientific interests to most of the topics of

all viticulture; this is why the group recently renamed itself as GiESCO.

The periodical meetings of this group are good occasions to renew personal contacts, as well as to make new ones, in

order to facilitate cooperation in research and education.

The 17th International Symposium GiESCO 2011, for many viticulturists, is also a good occasion to know Italian

viticulture, especially the Piedmont's one, which is renowned worldwide.

I would like to dedicate this Symposium to the memory of Prof. Italo Eynard that, besides to be an excellent viticulture

scientist and professor, was an enthusiastic promoter of the GESCO group at its beginning.

Finally I would like to thanks all people involved in the organization of this event, and all institutions and companies that

have financially supported the symposium or offered donations: without their contribute, this meeting would have been

impossible to realize.

Summary

The shading of the productive belt produces clusters with

minor sugar contents and higher acidity. Further it creates

optimal conditions for the establishment of Botrytis cinerea. The

present work aims to analyze the effects of leaf removal on

Sauvignon blanc and Grechetto with three different ways of

defoliation (leaf removal to east, west and total) in addition to the

control test (no defoliation). The study was carried out in the

vineyard “Arnaldo Caprai, Montefalco” (PG) and consisted in

collecting data during the period from 2007 to 2010 (for

Grechetto only in 2007, 2009 and 2010). In the vineyards which

are located on a plain, a spurred cordon system was applied, the

rows were north-south orientated and cover cropping was made

on soil. For each year the main vegetative–productive and

analytical parameters, as well as the polyphenolic content of

grapes, have been observed; for each thesis of 2010 the curves of

technological and polyphenolical ripening were identified, with

the aim to better understand the course of those components,

because they may cause oxidation in wines, above all in the white

ones, leading to browning and aroma losses.

From the years' average resulted that in Grechetto the not-

defoliated vines had the highest average cluster weight with a

medium sugar content, a good level of acidity and the lowest pH.

It could be further seen that in 2010 in Grechetto the notdefoliated

vines recorded the highest quantity of malic acid

together with the west-defoliated ones; from a polyphenolical

point of view, west defoliation maintains a constant percentage of

polyphenols in skins during the three years of observation, even

if sometimes the quantities are low. Sauvignon with east

defoliation shows a good sugar and acidity level, maintaining a

medium–low pH; in addition east defoliation leads to a reduced

percentage of polyphenols in skins in 2008 and 2010, whereas the

control test presents in every year medium–low levels of all the

analytical parameters.

INTRODUCTION

Times and effects of leaf removal: generally, this

operation is made between flowering and veraison with the

primary purpose of improving the lighting and the aeration

of grapes (Poni, 2006). In practice, leaf removal can be

also made before vintage, facilitating ripening, improving

plant resistance to pests and accelerating harvesting

(Valenti, 1997); many studies have demonstrated that early

defoliation can lead to a reduction of sugars, an increase of

acidity (Eynard and Dalmasso, 1993) and, further, to a

drop of fruits and a reduction of bud fertility (Candolfi-

Vasconcelos and Koblet, 1990). Some studies (Eberle and

Persano, 2006) have shown that premature loss of leaves

reduces the phenomenon of burns, because the plant is able

to react by growing out new leaves from secondary shoots,

creating a kind of covering, though only partially.

The benefits of defoliation can be directly seen on

grape composition: increase of sugars, colour, quantity of

total polyphenols, higher aromaticity, reduction of total

acidity (caused by a reduction of malic and tartaric acids)

(Lakso and Kliewer, 1975; Percival et al., 1994) and

increase in pH (Guidoni et al., 2005); generally, there is a

qualitative and quantitative increase of production

(Valenti, 1997; Cargnello, 1992; Poni, 2003). It is however

necessary to consider the depth of canopy because

defoliation applied on not very deep walls, reduces the

photosynthetic activity and can also cause a deterioration

of grape quality (Reynolds et al., 1994; Spayd et al.,

2002).

Main effects of defoliation on the bio-synthesis of

polyphenolic and aromatic components: leaf removal

increases the polyphenolical content, because it improves

their biosynthesis which is optimal at temperatures

between 20-30 °C; temperatures higher than 37 °C lead to

an inhibition of anthocyanins synthesis encouraging also

the degradation of the polyphenols (Bergqvist et al., 2001;

Spayd et al., 2002; Mori et al., 2007). Further, light has an

important role for the synthesis of carotenoids whose

content is relevant for the complexity of the aromatic

profile of a large number of vine grape varieties (Wirth et

al., 2001; Strauss et al., 1987; Winterhalter et al., 1990).

Main actions of grape's polyphenol content and

effects on vine: polyphenol components are very important

for the plant because they have a protective function

against UV radiation limiting the formation of free

radicals. In wine, and above all in white wines, these

polyphenolic components can have a negative effect,

because they are highly reactive with oxygen; they oxidize

themselves and other components of wine (i.e. the

aromatic molecules…); the consequence is the creation of

brown compounds not desired in wines and whose reaction

can be faster with the catalytic activity of Fe ++ and Cu + .

The oxidation easiness depends on the nature of the phenol

base unit (i.e. musts rich of catechin oxidize easier…). In

wines, polyphenols are in general compounds which give

structure and complexity (Riberau-Gayon et al., 2005).

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The trial was carried out in the vineyard “Arnaldo

Caprai” (PG) in the years 2007-2010: for the Sauvignon

blanc, data were collected during the entire period,

whereas for the Grechetto, no data were collected for 2008

because of sanitary problems. When clusters reached 10%

of coloured berries, for both cultivars, defoliation was

carried out manually and only along the cluster belt. Thesis

were conducted in the following way: control test (not
