Want to know more about Solaris……
Solaris is a hybrid white wine variety grown mainly in Baden, Germany, where it was developed in 1975. Its parent varieties are Merzling and the functionally named Gm 6493 – a crossing of Zarya Severa and Muscat Ottonel.
Solaris wines are most often made in off-dry styles, but the variety’s extremely high natural sugar levels make it well suited to the production of sweet wines in hotter climates. It is disease resistant, and ripens earlier than almost any other wine grape. The name Solaris, which means “sun”, is particularly apt, as the variety is used in regions noted for their cool climates and low sunshine levels. Solaris grapes produce high must weights and early-ripening fruit, an excellent combination for growers looking to ensure an abundant harvest.
