Learning outcomes
- The course introduces the student to the study of wine-growing territories intended as complex systems of interaction between cultivars and specific abiotic and biotic factors related to climate, soil, rootstock and cultivation techniques.
The student will know the different approaches to the notion of terroir as defined in viticulture, and the possibilities to analyze and classify the elements that compose it.
Through participatory discussions, the illustration of case studies and the application of the above knowledge, the student will have acquired the ability to understand the link between the quality of the wine production and the territory, and will be able to evaluate the characteristics and potential of typicality of a cultivation site.
Program
International, national, local grape varieties. Autochthonous (native) varieties. Varietal or territory Wines.
Relationship between genotype and environment: the concept of plasticity and the reasons for the non-reproducible typicality.
Approaches to the concept of terroir. Terroir evaluation and choice of areas: analysis and classification of the elements that make up the terroir. Zoning and methodologies for its realization.
Relationships between the elements of terroir and the ecophysiology of the vine: influence of the terroir on the maturation and quality of the grapes.
Classification of terroirs.
The contribution of the terroir to territorial identity: specific examples (case studies) of territorial identity of wine production.

Double degree
The University of Verona, through a network of agreements with foreign universities, offers international courses that enable students to gain a Double/Joint degree at the time of graduation. Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
The latest Call for applications for Double/Joint Degrees at the University of Verona is available now!
