Solaris is a hybrid grape variety used for white wine. It was created in 1975 at the Freiburg wine-growing institute in Germany. Solaris is a cross between Merzling and Gm 6493.

History

Solaris was bred in 1975 by Norbert Becker at the Staatliches Weinbauinstitut Freiburg in Germany. The grape is a cross between the varieties Merzling and Gm 6493. The aim of the breeding was to create a grape variety that is resistant to fungal diseases and can be grown in cooler climates.

Viticulture

Solaris is a very early ripening variety and it is resistant to most fungal diseases. This makes it a popular choice for organic wine producers in northern Europe. The grape is grown in several countries including Germany, Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

Wine styles

Solaris wines are typically full-bodied with a balanced acidity. They often have aromas of ripe tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, as well as citrus notes.
