Centennial Selection Wine Details
Price: $12.95 per bottle

Description: This wine celebrates Crossville's first 100 years.We chose our Muscadine wine to honor this outstanding event. The Muscadine grape grows wild in the Crossville area. Many people in the Crossville area grew up hearing this grape referred to as the "Fox grape". Further, our Muscadine wine is our most popular variety. Therefore, it is appropriate for this wine to be used to honor Crossville's first 100 years!

Varietal Definition
Muscadine:
A species of native American vines that were first discovered by European explorers, who found them growing along the low lying Southern coastal regions. Most Muscadine wines (reds and whites) are blends, usually given proprietary names by the winery (e.g., "Vintners' Blend"), and vinified in the sweet or semi-sweet style. Muscadines and blends are usually sweet and foxy (a unique aroma/flavor profile variously described as wild and musky).
