LaCrescent

LaCrescent Wine Details
Price:

Description: Made from the Minnesota LaCrescent grape developed by the University of Minnesota, this wine is often compared to a Vignole or Riesling; this white wine is very aromatic with lots of apricot, lime and honey aromas. Finished off semi-sweet, this is best served chilled.

Varietal Definition
LaCrescent:
La Crescent's intense nose of apricot, peach, and citrus lends itself to superior quality off-dry or sweet white wines. Produced in a Germanic style, La Crescent wine is reminiscent of Vignoles or Riesling. The grape's high acidity provides good structure for excellent dessert or late-harvest style wines.
