Le Nez du Vin

The 12 typical aromas of grape varieties : Chardonnay of the World

his year marks the tenth anniversary of Chardonnay du Monde in Burgundy. This event offers a unique opportunity for the world's best Chardonnays to be judged in a qualitative confrontation.
Our first meeting with Jean Lenoir in the 1980s is undoubtedly one of the reasons for the success of this event. His rigorous approach to the description of our sensory perceptions has been a guide for better appreciating the nature of "true wine".

Practical Handbook of Grapevine Fertilization
Must and Wine Quality

This practical handbook of grapevine fertilization gives an overview of all these approaches, which are not mutually exclusive. What grower would think of neglecting the soil or not satisfying the needs of the plant or ignoring the requirements for producing good wines?
For the first time, the mineral analysis of wines is used here to clarify fertilization problems, and practical solutions are offered. This represents an advance in well-reasoned grape growing, and while recommendations will undoubtedly have to be adjusted in the future, they do form the basis for a dialogue between growers and winemakers.

Practical Handbook of Grapevine Pruning

One of the best illustrations of the negative effects that occur when traditional practices continue unabated in the face of climate change can be found with Grenache in the Côtes de Rhône, Costières de Nîmes and Coteaux du Languedoc appellations. In these vineyards, Grenache now ripens extremely quickly, but with such little colour that it is hard to compensate through blending with other varieties.

General Viticulture
General viticulture

by Pierre Galet

he late 19th century saw profound crises in European grape growing, caused primarily by the introduction or spread of various grapevine parasites. These crises were followed in the mid-20th century by the progressive mechanisation of viticultural practices and, in the last 15 years, by the incredible growth in the use of chemicals- fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, growth hormones and fumigants-and of plastic materials- ties, films, pipes, anti-hail and anti-bird netting." As in the previous French editions, my primary concern has been to provide precise definitions for common technical terms in order to facilitate comprehension.
