The cultural initiative "Vendanges du savoir", led by the Université Bordeaux Montaigne, the University of Bordeaux, and La Cité du Vin, under the impetus of the Institute of Vine and Wine Sciences (ISVV), will be held on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. The event, taking place from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at La Cité du Vin, will address the profound transformations induced by climate change on agricultural production, with a particular focus on viticulture.
In the face of global climate changes, winegrowers must adapt their practices, which in turn influence the climate through changes in landscapes, ecosystems, and biodiversity. These transformations also deeply affect soils and their microbial communities, posing considerable challenges for sustainable management in viticulture. The conferences aim to shed light on these changes and support the evolution of the wine world.
The event is free and open to the public upon registration. It will also be possible to follow the conference online via Zoom, also requiring registration. This scientific partnership, supported by the Fondation Bordeaux Université and the company Baron Philippe de Rothschild, aims to widely disseminate scientific knowledge related to vines and wine, highlighting research and fostering exchanges between researchers and the public.
Researchers will present the state of their work in agronomic sciences, oenology, and humanities, thereby contributing to breaking down knowledge silos surrounding this key regional sector.
