Global warming, which is significantly affecting the Earth's high-latitude regions, is creating new opportunities for the development of winegrape growing in northern areas that were previously too cold to allow proper grape ripening. However, the risk of spring frost affecting woody plants has increased in several parts of the world. Due to milder winters, the vegetative cycle now begins earlier in the year, exposing plants, such as grapevine, to spring frost at a more vulnerable stage. Benjamin Bois, a specialist in climate-vine relationships at the University of Burgundy Europe, will present an overview of recent and projected climate changes in emerging northern vine and wine regions. His talk will focus on the evolution of frost risk and adaptation strategies where this risk is not expected to decrease.
