ARI Project Final Paper (version date: 29 April 2008) Assessing Wine Quality Relative to Soil Types: A Study of Terroir T.J. Rice, J. Montecalvo and A. Schaffner ABSTRACT The relationships between soil type and wine quality, as measured by the inorganic and organic constituents in wines (post-fermentation, pre-barrel stage) and grape must obtained from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown on their own roots, were investigated. The two contrasting soil types are Calodo clay loam, a shallow Calcic Haploxeroll, and Zaca clay, a deep Vertic Haploxeroll. The vineyard site is Carmody McKnight Estate Wines, located about seven miles west of Paso Robles, CA. Grape must and the pre-barrel wine samples were obtained over three harvest years, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Statistical analyses demonstrate significantly higher levels of calcium (Ca), potassium (K), pH, and reducing sugars in the grape must and wine samples grown on the Calodo clay loam. Ammonia levels were higher in the wine samples grown on the Zaca clay. In 2004, color intensity measurements of the must and pre-barrel wine samples were higher for the Zaca clay samples. These data indicate that the shallow Calodo soils with lower water supplying capacities resulted in higher reducing sugar levels in the grapes. This relates to higher alcohol levels in the wines. There appears to be a relationship between the inorganic Ca and K levels in the Calodo clay loam and these same levels in the grape must and wine. The cause is not entirely clear, since there is no difference in these same nutrient levels between the two soil types. A higher K value in the grapes corresponds with higher pH levels in the grapes grown on the Calodo soils. The relationship between K and grape pH has been demonstrated by past researchers. Future research on soil type and grape quality relationships should incorporate cane and fruit yield data along with atmospheric and soil climate data.

properties on chemically diverse soils at Carmody McKnight Vineyards. These past projects began with a comprehensive soils study of the Carmody McKnight Vineyards in the Adelaida Hills region of San Luis Obispo County, CA, about seven miles northwest of Paso Robles. The primary objectives were to inventory and map the major vineyard soils and to provide laboratory characterizations of the important chemical and physical soil properties related to vineyard management. There are two Cal Poly senior projects that resulted in a detailed soil survey and map of the Carmody McKnight Vineyards (Sloan and Westerling, 1996) and a comprehensive soil chemical property characterization of 19 soil profiles in the Carmody McKnight Vineyards (Roberts and Stubler, 1996). Building upon these past Cal Poly soils studies, Carmody McKnight Vineyards was chosen to be the subject of long term testing and research with the Soil Information System (SIS) from Earth Information Technologies Corporation (EarthIT). This is a joint effort by John Deere Global Ag. Services, and Earth IT and will usher in a new age in earth science technologies applied to agricultural enterprises. In 2003, EarthIT employees under contract with Deere & Company became involved in this soil mapping project in order to introduce state-of-the-art digital technology into these soil inventory and vineyard management efforts. Based on these several soils studies, the grape sampling sites for this study were chosen. The primary sampling sites will be within Block 3 of Carmody McKnight Vineyards, which is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines are planted on their own roots and are irrigated similarly throughout the total block length. The entire Cabernet Sauvignon block is managed similarly relative to pest management and other viticulture considerations. The Cabernet Sauvignon block is planted in a north-south orientation and soils vary from a shallow Calodo clay loam soil (loamy, mixed, superactive, thermic, shallow Calcic Haploxerolls) in the northernmost portion of the block and changes downslope to a deep Zaca clay loam soil (fine, smectitic, thermic Vertic Haploxerolls) in the southernmost portion of the block. Based on the existing soil maps, backhoe pits at least two meters long will be dug in the Calodo and Zaca soils to weathered bedrock. The soils were described according to standard USDA nomenclature (Soil Survey Staff, 1994). The described soils will be classified according to soil taxonomy (Soil Survey Staff, 1997) and correlated to the series level using USDA official series descriptions. When the soils descriptions are completed, about two (2) kilograms of soil was sampled to one meter depth or to bedrock and placed in plastic or paper bags. These soil samples were sent to A&L Western Agricultural Laboratories in Modesto, CA for characterization of the inorganic and organic soil components (Table 1). Five (5) composite soil samples were collected for laboratory analyses within each of the two soil types in August, 2004 and in August 2007.

Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were sampled separately within each soil type (Calodo vs. Zaca) at time of harvest. Samples of the grapes from each site were frozen and stored for future analyses. The grape samples to be fermented into wine will then be crushed and placed separately in plastic fermenting tanks. The fermented, pre-barrel wines from each site were characterized by a variety of organic and inorganic properties (Table 2). Ten total grape and wine samples were collected for analyses with five replications of each grape sample and each fermented, pre-barrel wine from each of the two soil areas.

All methods used for wine analysis are AOAC (American Association of Official Analytical Chemists) and TTB (Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms; Tax and Trade Bureau) are used in the Wine Chemistry and Analysis Laboratory in the Cal Poly FSN Department and at Vinquiry, Inc. in Santa Maria, CA. Statistical Evaluation; Sampling of grapes and wine Cabernet Sauvignon wine grapes were randomly sampled at five (5) locations within each of the two soil types. A one kilogram (fresh weight) sample of wine grapes was obtained within the five locations from each of the two soil areas. These samples were frozen and stored for potential future analytical laboratory analyses. Five (5) separate sample lots of wine grapes within each soil area were harvested separately and five corresponding wine samples were separately fermented in fifty (50) gallon plastic fermenting tanks. Random liquid samples of each of the five wine lots will be obtained post-fermentation and delivered to the analytical laboratory for analyses. In order to test for correlation and resulting significance between soil mineral analysis and wine mineral analysis, results were tabulated in the form of means, standard deviation and coefficient of variation for all individual analysis (Nielson, 2003). Both regression analysis including linear regression, correlation coefficients and test among sample populations of analysis were conducted by Dr. Andrew Schaffner, Cal Poly Statistics Department. To assess differences in soil chemistry associated with soil types a third order mixed effects analysis variance model was used with soil type (Calodo or Zaca) and sample source (grape must or wine) as fixed effects and year (2004, 2005, 2006) as a random effect. When comparing soil compositions across the soil types a second order mixed effects analysis of variance was used with soil type (Calodo or Zaca) as fixed effects and year (2004 or 2007) as a mixed effect. RESULTS and DISCUSSION Results from the grape must and the pre-barrel wine samples Grape must and the pre-barrel wine samples were obtained over three harvest years, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Statistical analyses demonstrate significantly higher levels of calcium (Ca), potassium

Summary discussion of soils data results 1.) Main differences between the two soil areas over the complete period of this study (2004 to 2007): Soil water holding capacity (WHC), K, Ca, Cu, and Zn. The soil AWHC is higher in the Zaca clay (bottom). The K and Zn levels are higher in the Calodo clay loam (bottom). The higher AWHC in the Zaca clay means that the grapes also have higher water contents and lower reducing sugar levels at time of harvest.

The higher K levels in the must and grapes results in lower pH levels in the grape must and wine, but has no affect on soil pH levels. This relationship between K and pH in grapes has been noted by past researchers (reference). Copper is relatively high in these Monterey Formation calcareous rocks (shale, mudstone and limestone). The shallow Calodo soils have more Cu since these calcareous rocks contribute more to Cu to this soil as compared to the deeper Zaca soils. 2.) Similarities between the two soil areas over the complete period of this study (2004 to 2007): pH, ECe, CEC, Mg, Na, NO3-N, PO4-P, S, Mn, and Fe. Due to the close proximity of these two soil areas and their common parent materials (calcareous mudstone, shale and limestone), they have many similar properties. 3.) Soil properties lower in 2007 (higher in 2004): pH, Ca (% of CEC), Na (% of CEC), and S. The reduction in soil pH is likely related to the addition of S, which is used as an organic-certified fungicide. As S dust is added to the grapevines, some S falls onto the soil surface. The added S mixes with water in the soil and produces sulfuric acid (H2SO4), resulting in a reduction in soil pH. The addition of K in foliar fertilizer would result in a relative reduction in Ca and Na in the soils. Some K from the fertilizer spray will fall onto the soil surface and be incorporated into the soil. 4.) Soil properties higher in 2007 (lower in 2004): ECe, CEC, OM, K (% of CEC), NO3-N, PO4-P, K, Mg, Ca, Zn, Mn, Fe, and Cu. 5.) Soil properties same (similar) in 2004 and 2007: Mg (% of CEC) and Ca:Mg ratio. Summary of grape and wine must data 1.) Calcium (mg/L) levels in the grape must and wine samples collected from the Calodo clay loam (top) were significantly higher when compared with those from the Zaca clay (bottom) (Figure Ca).

2.) Potassium (mg/L) levels in the grape must and wine samples collected from the Calodo clay loam (top) were significantly higher when compared with those from the Zaca clay (bottom) (Figure K).

3.) pH levels in the grape must and wine samples collected from the Calodo clay loam (top) were significantly higher when compared with those from the Zaca clay (bottom) (Figure K).

4.) Reducing sugars (g/100 ml) in the grape must and wine samples collected from the Calodo clay loam (top) were significantly higher when compared with those from the Zaca clay (bottom) (Figure RS).
