EVALUATION OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF SOME VINE VARIETIES FOR WINE GRAPES UNDER CLIMATIC RISK CONDITIONS

Abstract

The research was carried out at Research and Development Station for Viticulture and Vinification Bujoru, Romania during 2020-2021. The main objective of the research is to evaluate the technological potential of three wine varieties and two vine clones for wine grapes under climate risk conditions. ‘Bujoru’, ‘Blasius’, ‘Negru Aromat’ varieties and ‘Muscat Ottonel 49 Bj’ and ‘Şarbă 25/45’vine clones were analysed. Technological indicators were calculated based on the mechanical components of the grapes. The values of these indices complete the qualitative characteristics of the wine varieties. Due to the climatic risk, the varieties analysed did not reach their biological potential in any of the two years when this research has been carried.
