Riesling, Chardonnay, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes can make magnificent wines but there are also many other excellent wine varieties that for many of us are rarely experienced. Vines for Wines will expand the wine lover’s knowledge and appreciation of a great range of wines and help to explore their individual preferences for specific varieties, blends, flavours and styles. This book is based on the highly successful Wine Grape Varieties, which is an aid to identifying grape vines. Vines for Wines, however, focuses on wines from the average consumer’s point-of-view, introducing the different wine grape varieties and the wines made from them, including blends. Each variety is represented by a colour photograph of the grape variety, its current world plantings, wine produced and notes describing the varietal characters for each wine grape variety. The tasting terms and wine notes for each variety provide a benchmark for the consumer to assess the quality of wines they drink, and to allow them to share and compare their experiences confidently with other wine lovers.

Крымский полуостров - регион с разнообразными почвенными и климатическими условиями, является родиной более 70 сортов винограда. Сортимент винограда Крыма формировался на протяжении длительного времени в определённых условиях и обладает рядом ценных свойств и признаков. В статье приводится описание основных ампелографических и хозяйственно-биологических характеристик перспективного местного крымского столово-технического сорта среднепозднего периода созревания Солнечная Долина 58. Сорт пригоден для культивирования в юго-восточной прибрежной зоне Крыма при схеме посадки кустов 1,5 х 3,0 м и нагрузке 60 глазков на куст при обрезке 6-8 глазков. Хорошо растет и плодоносит на щебенистых почвах. Перспективен для приготовления красных столовых и десертных вин, и для потребления в свежем виде на месте. Сорт встречается только в коллекциях. The Crimean Peninsula as a region with a diversity of soil and climatic conditions is a home to more than 70 grape varieties. The assortment of grapes has been formed over a long period of time under certain conditions and has a number of valuable properties and traits. The article describes main ampelographic and economic-biological characteristics of the promising local Crimean table and wine grape variety ‘Solnechnaya Dolina 58’. The variety is suitable for cultivation in the south-eastern coastal zone of Crimea with bushes planting scheme of 1.5 x 3.0 m and a load of 60 eyes per bush when pruning 6-8 eyes.

На территории Республики Крым проводились двухлетние исследования, которые позволили оценить влияние внекорневых обработок регулятором роста Альбит, ТПС и комплексом удобрений ООО «Биокефарм Рус» («Сиамино Про», Дабл Вин, «Боро Про», Софт Гард, Алга, Мастер Грин Са) на формирование показателей товарного качества столовых сортов винограда в период вегетации виноградного растения. Применение регулятора роста Альбит, ТПС увеличило урожай с куста и среднюю массу грозди винограда сорта Молдова на 26,4 % и 14,8 % относительно контроля (система питания хозяйства). Урожай с куста и средняя масса грозди сорта Италия с использованием препарата Альбит, ТПС повысилась на 34,4 % и 14,9 %, комплекса удобрений ООО «Биокефарм Рус» на 29,5 % и 23,8 % по сравнению с контролем. Комплекс удобрений ООО «Биокефарм Рус» улучшил выход стандартной продукции винограда сорта Италия на 9,4 % в сравнении с контролем. Доля влияния исследуемых препаратов на урожайность сорта Молдова варьировала от 53,1% (Альбит, ТПС) до 90,3% (ООО «Биокефарм Рус») при Р<0.05 (P - значение по критерию Фишера). В опытах с применением регулятора роста «Альбит, ТПС» увеличилась общая дегустационная оценка винограда сорта Молдова - на 14,6 %, сорта Италия - на 5,8 %; при использовании комплекса препаратов ООО «Биокефарм Рус» - на 9,9% (сорт Молдова) и на - 9,6 % (сорт Италия) относительно контроля. On the territory of the Republic of Crimea, a two-year study was carried out, which made it possible to assess the effect of foliar treatments with the growth regulator Albit, RP and a complex of fertilizers of Biokepharm Rus LLC (Siamino Pro, Double Win, Boro Pro, Soft Guard, Algae, Master Green Ca) on the formation of indicators of the commercial quality of table grape varieties during the growing season. The use of growth regulator Albit, RP increased the yield per bush and the average bunch weight of ‘Moldova’ grape variety by 26.4% and 14.8% relative to the control (food and agriculture system). The yield per bush and the average bunch weight of ‘Italia’ variety using Albit, RP preparation increased by 34.4% and 14.9%, using the fertilizer complex of Biokepharm Rus LLC - by 29.5% and 23.8% compared to the control. Fertilizer complex of Biokepharm Rus LLC improved the standard product output of ‘Italia’ grapes by 9.4% compared to the control. The influence degree of preparations studied on the cropping capacity of ‘Moldova’ variety ranged from 53.1% (Albit, RP) to 90.3% (Biokepharm Rus LLC) at P < 0.05 (P is Fisher's variance ratio). In experiments with the use of growth regulator Albit, RP, the overall tasting assessment of ‘Moldova’ grape variety increased by 14.6%, ‘Italia’ variety - by 5.8%; when using the complex of preparations of Biokepharm Rus LLC - by 9.9% (‘Moldova’ variety) and by - 9.6% (‘Italia’ variety) relative to the control.

Since 1998, the Ain-Karim Vineyard has been growing different grape varieties for the production of high-altitude tropical wines in the municipality of Sutamarchan, located in the Alto Ricaurte region of Boyaca (Colombia). Pruning is used to limit the number and length of branches, generating a suitable balance between plant vigor and production; thereby, regulating fruit quantity and quality and ensuring reserves for the subsequent production. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of three pruning types (short = two buds on two spurs; long = five buds on three spurs and mixed = combination of short and long pruning types) on the fruit quality of V. vinifera, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc varieties. To accomplish this, a completely randomized two-factor design was used. Physicochemical variables of fruit quality (fresh cluster weight, water content, total soluble solids (TSS), total titratable acidity (TTA), technical maturity index (TMI), and pH) were determined at harvest. The long pruning type presented the highest values for the fresh cluster weight and TSS of the fruits from both varieties and a higher TMI in the Cabernet Sauvignon variety. These results indicate that, under the conditions of the vineyard, long pruning is the most suitable.

The chapter represents the challenges of creating a new wine brand in Croatia based upon an autochthonous wine grape variety Malvazija Istarska. As a product, the wine has a long tradition of winegrowing and strong historical background. With novel technologies which create high quality wines with numerous positive attributes and current presence on national and international markets, there is strong evidence that branding could be the next step. The demand for Malvazija Istarska exists and consumers are aware of the attributes and quality. From the producer's point of view Malvazija Istarska should maintain its quality and positive image and geographic origin which warranties uniqueness. The brand should be distinctive from other similar products with distinctive and protected package and bottle design and size.

This study aims at making a sensorial analysis of red wines from the Șarba wine region, Odobești Vineyard. In order to determine wines from a sensory point of view, we first studied the influence of geomorphology on the sensory character. In the analysis of red wines sensorial quality we used several wines from 2012 (i.e. Pinot noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Black Fetească and Merlot), as 2012 was a beneficial year from the point of view of red grapes ripening, and the oenoclimatic index was favourable to obtaining savoury and flavoured wines. The vegetal flavour does not affect the wines’ harmony too much.
