Adapt or die: climate change in the vineyard

Over the past few years, growers have spent more time in their vineyards than ever before. In addition to frequent weather extremes and changing conditions in the world of wine, this has also meant significant investment to make vineyards more resilient to climate change. Whether it is a change in variety, location, altitude or soil, adaptation is key. Detailed information will be available here from early April.

Wine in a new guise

In the past, the wine industry felt bound to an often rigid and always exclusive definition of wine, but during the crisis, a serious rethink has taken place. Be it co-fermentation, hard seltzer or even non-alcoholic: New categories of hybrid drinks and inventive packaging are being received like stars in an industry that used to be deeply committed to tradition. Stuart Pigott and Paula Redes Sidore will present the best examples on stage and in the glass at the Trend Hour Tastings on ProWein Sunday and Monday. A deeper insight into this topic is provided by the Trend Article, which will be online from in April 2022.
