Chambourcin

Chambourcin Wine Details
Price:

Description: I call this my signature grape because it was some of the first vines planted in the vineyard in 1996. The tannin is soft and the structure is just enough to wake up the palate. Ripe berry and oak give way to an since of easy drink-ability

Varietal Definition
Chambourcin:
A french-american hybrid used to make red wines with fruity flavors and some herbaceousness. Grown in the cooler regions of Eastern U.S. and Canada. Decreasing acreages also found in Europe; due to stringent European Union rules these varieties cannot be blended with traditional varieties.
