We analyzed the nature and trends of climate variables and bioclimatic indices for 6locations situated in the Loire Valley, northwest France, along with the berry composition of the 6main grapevine varieties cultivated there, from 1960 to 2010. Results show significant increases inmean temperature (by 1.3 to 1.8°C) over the growing season (April to September) throughout theLoire Valley, with maximum temperatures increasing more strongly than minimum temperatures.Temperature variables, such as spring and summer temperatures, the number of days with maxi-mum temperatures >30°C and bioclimatic indices increased significantly. The Huglin Index indi-cated that the 6 locations in the Loire Valley have shifted from a cool climate to a temperate cli-mate between 1960 and 2010, and increases in growing degree-days were highly correlated withearlier harvest dates. The berry composition of the 6 main white and red grapevine varietieschanged significantly, with higher sugar concentrations and lower titratable acidity at harvest. Weconclude that these changes in berry composition were significantly influenced by the increasesin temperature over the study period.KEY WORDS: Loire Valley · Climate change · Temperature · Bioclimatic indices ·
