Wine and climatic changes

In recent years we are witnessing to climate changes unexpected for a country as Italy. In addition to adversely effects on the human health, climate changes cause also adverse effects on the wine compartment, altering the taste of the Bacchus nectar.
The increasing in average temperatures, in particular, affects the vines, helping to obtain more full-bodied wines, but much more alcohol and more sugar and acids.

If once the vintage was made in mid-September, now the harvest is done in mid-August and consequently will the cycle of the wine grapes has become shorter, altering the wine taste.
This meant that many grapes must to be moved on the hilly areas. The most famous? The Champagne, an usually cold land, which in recent years has recorded an increase in temperature with the consequent loss of refinement in the final wine taste. So vineyards have moved higher at a lower temperature, since every hundred yards there is a temperature degree.

In Italy is a return to mountain areas where the wine was cultivated in the past, and then a big return to the heights of Trentino, Franciacorta, Barolo, Barbaresco and Sicilian wines. Speaking of records, if the world record of the Argentine vineyards in Salta region, situated at an altitude of 3000 meters above sea level, is far enough, in Italy from Valle d'Aosta Blanc de Morgex to Etna wines, Italian wines are aimed to high excellence, a quality that exceeds the one thousand meters!
