THE QUALITATIVE OENOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF THE WINE GRAPECULTIVARS FROM THE AMPELOGRAPHIC COLLECTION AT SCDVV DRĂGĂŞANI

Rezumat

Research was carried out during 2020-2022 period at SCDVV Drăgăşani and at the Wine Analysis Laboratory within Sâmbureşti Domains. The cultivars analyzed and studied were 'Negru vârtos', 'Novac', 'Cârlogancă' and 'Bikaver 13', from the national germplasm collection of the Drăgăşani unit. The first three cultivars are considered autochthonous and even local, the fourth is a Hungarian cultivar. These cultivars are valuable, which lend themselves best to the eco-pedological conditions of the wine-growing area. The qualities of the wines obtained from these cultivars were valued, through physical-chemical analyzes and statistical calculations, using indices such as mean, variance (s2), standard deviation (s) and the coefficient of variation (CV%), the aim being to obtain wines of the DOC type and GI and their promotion on the national and international wine market. Therefore, the wines from Drăgăşani continue their traditional performance even today, that of being present on the market with their famous and very good wines. Drăgăşani wines are known in the country and abroad, being appreciated among the best red and white wines.
