Description
With temperatures expected to rise by two degrees Celsius by 2050, what impact will global warming have on the quality and taste of grapes, and subsequently wine?
Chateau La Tour Carnet, one of France's oldest estate for Medoc wines is leading scientific research on the matter in the Bordeaux region.
Since 2013, La Tour Carnet studies how do merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc amongst other wine grapes grow when heated on the vine, in order to select the best tasting varieties. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
