Bordeaux builds new wine research centre

L’Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin (ISVV) is the French name for the new research centre that is being constructed in the Bordeaux area. It will bring together research activities that has previously been spread out in several different locations. They will have 200 researchers and technicians – possibly the biggest wine research centre in the world. The scientific focus for the centre will be on three themes: oenology, physiology and polyphenols & health, but it will also have a broader vocation including collaborations in the area of social sciences, economics and marketing. www.isvv.fr
