“…Most of the wine growers, local and regional governments, and viticulture companies have contributed to improve the production of wine, dissemination of tourism, promotion of vineyard landscapes. However, achieving sustainable vineyard soil management to promote environmental protection has received much less interest (Petit et al, 2012;Smith and Bentzen, 2011;Zsófi et al, 2011). The use of environmentally friendly management strategies is mainly encouraged by governmental subsidies or by demonstrated increases in productivity (Galati et al, 2015;Marqués et al, 2015).…”

“…Geralmente, o deficit hídrico leve a moderado tem efeito positivo na composição da uva, por favorecer o acúmulo de compostos fenólicos (antocianinas e taninos) (Castellarin et al, 2007) e, consequentemente, a qualidade do vinho (Zsófi et al, 2011). A disponibilidade de água no solo modifica a concentração de açúcar na uva.…”

Resumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos das condições meteorológicas e do tipo de solo sobre características físico-químicas e compostos fenólicos da uva 'Cabernet Sauvignon' (Vitis vinifera Weather and soil effects on the composition of 'Cabernet Sauvignon' grapeAbstract -The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of weather and soil type on the physicochemical characteristics and phenolic compounds of the 'Cabernet Sauvignon' grape (Vitis vinifera). The experiment was carried out in a vineyard established in 2003, grafted onto 'Paulsen 1103', and conducted in the cordon system. Two soils were selected in the vineyard: Typic Dystrudepts and Pachic Humudepts. The effect of weather (rainfall, and minimum and maximum temperature) was evaluated in the seasons 2008/2009, 2009/2010, and 2010/2011. Soil physical and chemical properties, soluble solids, titratable acidity and pH of the wort were determined, as well as the index of total polyphenols, and anthocyanin and tannin contents of the grape. The factors soil and meteorological conditions (crop seasons) were arranged in a 2x3 factorial. Except for the total polyphenol content, weather and soil type affect the physicochemical characteristics of 'Cabernet Sauvignon'. The effect of weather is more pronounced than the effect of soil type. Lower rainfall and higher temperature ranges favor the accumulation of soluble solids in the 'Cabernet Sauvignon' grape. Higher rainfall favors the increase of wine acidity.

“…Since a mild to moderate water deficit has a positive effect on the fruit and wine phenolic composition and the wine sensory characteristics (e.g. Zsofi et al 2011) good drainage is essential. 3.…”

The concept of terroir incorporates interaction between geogenic and anthropogenic parameters and defines the typicity and quality of wine in a particular geographic area. Geomorphology represents one of the most important geogenic parameters of terroir. In 2008 we produced two wines from two different sites located within the same vineyard in the Vipava valley (Slovenia). Despite identical vine-growing and winemaking techniques, the two sites yielded grapes and wines of different quality. Both sites are identical in terms of macroclimate and bedrock, thus the differences are related to soil composition, drainage and microclimate, all directly linked to different geomorphic positions.
