Minimises biologically important secondary effects.. Reproduces the daily and seasonal cycles of temperature and vapour pressure deficit.. Does not increase relative humidity, hence allowing for increased vapour pressure deficit.. Has structural strength to withstand the weather (particularly wind) to ensure a reasonable longevity. 5. Allows for number and size of replicates required for statistical resolution and viticultural needs, including sufficient fruit for meaningful wine production.. 1/6/11 1/6/11 19/6/11 8/6/11 1/6/11 1/6/11 19/6/11 8/6/11 Date Differences in phenology were largely undetectable on thermal time indicating a true thermal effect rather than experimental artefact Developmental stage ( o Brix) F 5,18 =.188 P = Malic acid (mg g fwt -1 ) Day of year Thermal time ( o C d) Time after anthesis (d) Thermal time after anthesis ( o C d) 15 Sweetman et al 1 J Exp Bot Factorial experiments 1 Exp 1 temperatures (high, ) x varieties x years Living tissue (%) Exp (Shiraz) temperatures x fruit loads (thinned, ) x years Exp (Shiraz) temperatures x water (irrigated, deficit) x years Days after anthesis Thermal time after anthesis ( o Cd) Bonada et al. 1 Australian J Grape & Wine Research 19:87-9

6 Under our range of experimental conditions: variety dependent responses for TA-pH Response type 1 (Chardonnay, Cab. Franc) Strong for both ph and TA Elevating maximum temperatures (-1 C above s) during véraison and ripening reduced malate content. When minimum temperatures were also raised (-6 C) malate content was not reduced. Regulation of malate metabolism may differ during the day and night. Response type (Semillon) Strong for ph, unresponsive TA (i.e. decoupled ph and TA) Response type (Shiraz) Unresponsive ph and TA. The resilience of Shiraz is consistent with the adaptation of this variety to Barossa conditions. Sweetman et al 1 J Exp Bot in press Trait decoupling and wine balance elevated temperature decouples anthocyanins and sugars Thermal decoupling is the consequence of differential responses of related traits.

7 Antocyanins (mg/g) water deficit helps restoring the anthocyanin : sugar balance fully irrigated water deficit Total soluble solids ( o Brix) evaporative cooling is critical for tolerance to high temperature In well-watered Shiraz, short spells of heat stress (> o C) or continuous elevated temperature (+ to o C) increases canopy temperature by only 1 o C or less. Adaptations: larger more open stomata (Shiraz), higher density of wider xylem vessels (Malbec) Tradeoff: berry balance/heat stress Functional Plant Biology, 6:81-81; European J Agronomy, 1:5-58; GiEsco 1 temperature decoupled sensory berry traits Cabernet Franc 1 skin skin tannic herebaceus intensity aromas skin fruity aromas berry colour berry softness Higher berry sensory score ( traits, 9 panellists) with higher cell death skin desintegration skin astringency berry stalk removal pulp acidity skin acidity pulp detachment seed tannic intensity** pulp fruity aromas seed flavours* seed crushability* seed colour*** pulp herbaceus aromas pulp juiciness pulp sweetness seed astringency Sadras et al 1 Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research 19:95-16 Bonada et al 1 Irrigation Science 1: strong variety x season x temperature effect on wine sensory traits 11 vintage 1.

8 Industry implications In intermediate (Barossa-type region), elevated temperature is neutral for yield, and shifts maturity Strong decoupling of anthocyanins and sugars under elevated temperature Preserving wine identity and decompressing harvest Wine tasting workshop: November Wolf Blass January 1 Pruning date: 6 May 7 September 18 October The onset of colouring is shifted to higher sugar concentration Water deficit may partially restore balance (but increase heat damage) Decoupling of sensory traits in berries and wines Balance can be restored with vineyard (e.g. late pruning) and wine making interventions (e.g. differential berry crushing intensity, adjustment in maceration time and conditions) Thank you.
