Course content

  • The nature of the vine: In this first chapter we analyze the behavior and the main physiological characteristics of the vine. Then, through a virtual trip to some of the most important vineyards in the world, we retrace the history and evolution of viticulture: from the free-form and three-dimensional architectures of the past, we come to analyze the modern vertical shoot positioning systems.

  • Vine morphology: In this chapter we give an overview of the structure of the grape vine, focusing on those of its parts that are important for an understanding of the following chapters. From the hypogeal organs, or the root system (which develops below the ground), to the epigeal organs, or shoot system (which develops above the ground).
