Popis: Soil properties influence greatly the status of vine plants which consequently influences the quality of wine. Therefore, in the context of viticulture management, it is extremely important to assess the physical and chemical parameters of vineyards soils. In this study, the soils of two vineyards were analysed by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and established analytical reference procedures. The main objective of this study was to verify if NIR spectroscopy is a potential tool to discriminate the soils of both vineyards as well as to quantify differences of soil's parameters. For that, a total of eight sampling spots were selected at each vineyard taking into consideration the soil type and sampled at different depths. The data analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and partial least squares (PLS) regression. The ANOVA results revealed that 12 out of the 18 parameters analysed through the reference procedures can be considered statistically different (p
