Colombard and Palomino comprise about 8 percent each, but the latter is declining as the demand for fortified wines has diminished.
Other white varieties, in order of importance, are Muscat' d'Alexandrie (known locally as Hanepoot), Cape Riesling (alias Cruchen Blanc), Clairette Blanche for the cheaper sparkling wines, the popular, though relative newcomers Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, Weisser or Rhine Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Ugni Blanc.

 French Colombard
Colombard has been propelled into its present popularity by its ability to yield wines of simple but clean, slightly floral fruitiness combined with good acidity in warmer areas.
But it has found in California a new and happy home, where it has become the second most widely planted wine grape.
A few coastal wineries also produce French Colombard, generally in a dry style, but frequently with a little sugar left in it, to make softer, more palatable wines which have met with moderate success.

 Waterside White (South Africa) Chardonnay/Colombard 1999
Colombard is a very unexciting grape in most of its guises.
But this is quite irresistable: a fresh and aromatic white, where the crisp liveliness of the Colombard is given weight and juicy texture by the Chardonnay.
Much used for distillation, the white wines it produces tend to be rather neutral and acidic.

 FLUORIDE
They noted "that fluoride levels in wine produced from grapes not treated with Cryolite can range from 0.1 to 1.6 ppm, depending upon location and variety (Ostrom)." At 6 ppm one glass of wine (175 ml) would have delivered as much fluoride as about a liter of optimally fluoridated water!
They found that "[m]ultiple applications of Cryolite during the growing season significantly increase fluoride in wines." Notably they found fluoride levels between 3 - 6 ppm in Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chenin Blanc, Thompson Seedless, Barbera, Muscat Candi, Ruby Cabernet; and levels between 6 - <9 ppm in French Colombard and Zinfandel.
Researchers from California State University in Fresno conducted a 5 year study (1990-1994) on vineyards throughout the San Joaquin Valley.
