Yellow straw color. Aromas and flavors of melon, creme fraiche, lemon curd, and canned vegetables with a velvety, crisp, dryish medium body and a medium finish displaying notes of apricot, apple, and tomato and basil. Zippy acidity leads this wine with tart fruit on the finish; a great palate cleanser between courses or a base for Sangria.

White Hybrid Blend is a category that includes white wines made from two or more hybrid grapes; there wines comes from states such as Wisconsin, Missouri, New York State and Virginia. Grapes include Vignoles, Seyval Blanc and Traminette; the wines tender to be on the lighter side and should be enjoyed young. Food pairings depend on the dryness of the wine; picnic salads and lighter seafood are good choices.

Our Other White Hybrid category is specifically for less common white hybrids, or new and innovative white hybrid grape cultivars.
