      Content of different aroma types and visual analysis of the aromas in different subregions using a biplot of (a) Chardonnay wine samples, (b) Italian Riesling wine samples, (c) Petit Manseng wine samples. Hierarchical clustering of aroma components at p < 0.05 of (d) Chardonnay wines, (e) Italian Riesling wines, and (f) Petit Manseng wines.
