Terroir factors, such as soil and climate, together with cultivation practices, have layered and integrated effects on growth, yield, grape and wine quality, an

Canopy physiological changes of differently orientated vertically trellised Shiraz grapevines (NS, EW, NE-SW and NW-SE rows) were investigated.

The prevailing wind direction and wind velocity are always considered when vineyards are established in a specific terroir.

Climatic conditions, such as temperature, wind and humidity, and valley floor/edaphic conditions, such as soil water availability and drainage, often force the
