El objetivo principal de esta presentación es reflexionar – a partir de nuestra investigación académica- sobre el tema que nos convoca “Desafíos de la producción y el mercado” desde una vitivinicultura caracterizada por ser joven (desde 1870), de escala reducida (6.562 has. totales, 1.708 has. de Tannat) y con gran identidad (“Uruguay, país del Tannat”). Partimos de interpretar los desafíos como los retos o acciones para competir en la producción y en el mercado global, por lo tanto, se trata de planificar y proyectar para lo que vendrá desde una enología respetuosa de los “caracteres naturales y esenciales del vino”como lo propone el título de esta sección y que en este caso serán las características de nuestro vino Tannat. Por lo tanto, el desafío de la enología para el tannat de Uruguay sería la adecuación continua e integral de lo que se produce y ofrece al mercado; calidad del proceso, calidad de la información, calidad de los productos y comprobaciones que las certifiquen.
Abstract
The main purpose of this presentation is to reflect — based on our academic research — on the subject that brings us together: “production challenges and the market”. Our vitiviniculture is young (since 1870), small-scale (6,562 hectares in total; 1,708 hectares of Tannat) and has a strong identity (“Uruguay: the country of Tannat”). First, we interpret challenges as tasks or actions that help us compete in the production industry and in the global market. Therefore, we must plan and project our work into the future from an oenology that is respectful of “wine's natural and essential characters”, as suggested in the title of this section, and which in this case will be the characteristics of our Tannat wine. Therefore, the oenological challenge for Uruguayan Tannat would be the permanent and comprehensive need to adapt what is produced and offered in the market: the quality of the process, the quality of the information, the quality of products and the certifying controls.
