This issue of the journal considers various aspects of grape quality as a raw material, as well as the final products - high-quality wines and brandies. The Crimean autochthonous varieties growing in the Don Ampelographic Collection, and local varieties of various regions of Russia in the conditions of the Crimean Western-Coastal Piedmont region are studied. The management of quality and cropping capacity by biological method, as well as biologization of ampelocenoses of the South-Western Crimea are investigated. Data on the development of mathematical models to forecast the production processes in viticulture are presented. The market quality of grapes and their productivity depending on the foliar dressing of plants with targeted agrochemicals are studied. Attention is paid to the study of such traditional threats to grapevines as phylloxera and bacterial canker. Agrobiological indicators of phylloxera-resistant grape varieties in the Anapa-Taman zone of the Krasnodar Territory are studied. Biotechnological operations for the improvement of grape plant material from bacterial canker pathogens are described.
In the field of winemaking, a technological assessment of ‘Bastardo Magarachskiy’ grape variety for the production of high-quality wines in the conditions of the Lower Don region is given. The effect of cuvée aging in yeast process on the quality of sparkling wines from Crimean autochthonous grape varieties is studied. A study of properties of chitin-containing sorbents is devoted to the problem of clarification and stabilization of table wines. Changes in physicochemical composition of brandy distillates during aging in contact with oak wood are studied. The elemental profile of Crimean wines and isotopic characteristics of their water component are studied. A method to prepare grapevine canes for effective extraction of stilbene compounds is presented.
