Pale yellow straw color. Aromas and flavors of lime peel, green banana, clementine peel, and canned pear with a supple, racy, dryish medium body and a smooth, refreshing, breezy finish with impressions of fresh pressed apple juice, rainier cherry, and bruléed pear. A dry and fruit-forward, zippy Vignoles for the brunch table.

Vignoles

Wine Glass White.jpg
Serve in a White Wine Glass
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.
