Resistant varieties for sparkling wines

Resistant grape varieties are a response to the challenges of viticulture, such as the reduction of phytosanitary products. Voltis is a resistant variety with agronomic characteristics similar to Chardonnay. Its potential as a still wine is less interesting than other varieties, but it stands out when used in sparkling wines. The sensory space of the Voltis varies according to its level of assembly with other varieties. These research results are a way to integrate new resistant varieties into appellations. Further studies are needed to better understand the ability of these varieties to integrate into different sensory spaces.
