PANORAMA AND SYNTHESIS OF THE 8TH INTERNATIONAL OENOLOGICAL SYMPOSIUM OF BORDEAUX- JUNE 2007

Close to 200 communications, of which 42 were selected for the event extending over 2 days and a half, further completed by some twenty workshops: due to this extent, it is not possible to be exhaustive! It starts off with the preliminary selection completed by the scientific comity of the Faculty of Oenology of Bordeaux for the oral presentations and continues with my vision as an oenologist; this panorama will therefore be subjective. Furthermore, joint to this is the vocation of Infowine, which is to diffuse scientific information of immediate or medium term interest for the economic and qualitative progression of the industry. The report follows the chronological order of the symposium with a grouping of the subjects by theme. Each communication is further referenced by the code attributed to the corresponding poster. The details of the communications and posters can be consulted online on the Symposium web site.
