Vignoles is an American white hybrid variety, grown most successfully in New York State as well as several midwest states such as Illinois, Missouri and Iowa. It is a relatively hearty grape, having good resistance to cold temperatures. Made primarily as a dry or off-dry white, there are a few late-harvest dessert wines made from Vignoles. Typical flavors include apple, pear, peach, with nougat and lemon custard in the sweeter versions.
