Ridge Red

Ridge Red Wine Details
Price:

Description: A Frontenac grape blend semi-dry red with a hint of black cherry. A great example of a northern climate red with a very distinctive Frontenac aroma.

Varietal Definition
Frontenac:
Frontenac’s overall viticultural performance and excellent wine quality are directly responsible for its success in Minnesota, where more of its vines are growing than any other variety. This recently released red wine grape from the University of Minnesota is a cross of Landot 4511 and Vitis Riparia. The vine’s chief advantage is its extremely vigorous and productive nature.
