sauvignon, belonging to the first cluster (‘warm climate-maturity’; optimum GST, 17–19 °C), exhibited a clear trend to postponement of the harvest date and reduction of TSS.
TA and pH of berry juice at harvest were influenced by thermal regime, expressed by the WI, HI (data not shown), and by the number of days with Tmax > 30 °C, showing a decreasing trend ( Figure 7 a).
The Cool night Index (CI) outlined an increasing trend in the average Tmin in early autumn ( Figure 5 b).
