Niagara

Niagara Wine Details
Price: $9.99 per bottle

Description: Made from the East Coast’s native grapes, Niagara is a powerhouse white wine true to North Carolina character. In the nose, there are fragrances reminiscent of mountainous aromatic dry herbs and apricots. On the palate, Niagara has flavors of tangerine and tropical fruits. The finish is lively and zesty, reflective of Niagara’s refreshing acidity. This is a wine to be enjoyed as a light thirst quenching aperitif or with a variety of cheeses.

Varietal Definition
Niagara:
A native American grape varietal, the Niagara is often referred to as the "white Concord." Widely grown in New York, it is a popular table wine, vinified in a slightly sweet style, though the best producers tend to minimize its inherent foxy (a unique aroma/flavor profile variously described as wild and musky) qualities.
