Vine and wine - two events within the MEDCLIV project
The National Institute of Chemistry invites you to a two-day online participation event within the EITClimateKIC project MEDCLIV. The event will take place on the Webex platform starting at 10am.
The interactive part will take place under the guidance of experienced moderators who will take care of active debate within small groups.
Through various activities, we will try to identify the main challenges facing the field of viticulture and winemaking in Slovenia.
The challenges that we will define on the first day will be briefly presented again the next day as we will try to co-create concrete solutions.
In many European regions, growing vines is part of the agricultural landscape and cultural heritage. It also often plays a central economic role. In the history of the Mediterranean peoples, viticulture has been undeniably crucial. Even today, more than 50% of all world wine is produced in this area.
Temperatures in wine-growing countries around the world have risen significantly over the last century. For some wine-growing countries in Italy, Germany and France, it is expected that the grapes will reach maturity faster than in the past and that the characteristic phenophases will appear earlier. This, in turn, often causes a disparity in acids and sugars, which has a major impact on wine quality.
Climate change is thus crucial in the process of grape and wine production. It affect the quantity and quality of wine and calls for systemic solutions of the entire vine and wine chain.
