Vidal Blanc

Vidal Blanc Wine Details
Price: $13.81 per bottle

Description: The Willowcroft Vidal is off-dry with good acidity to balance the residual sugar. It has an aromatic fruity nose with pear flavors. It is great with ham, sweet potatoes, melon with proscuttio, and many fruity dishes. The fruit was mostly whole cluster pressed. This hybrid has been very popular and is delicious!

Varietal Definition
Vidal Blanc:
A white French hybrid once widely planted in the south of France, it is more suitable for growing in warm and humid climates like the South. These vines are prolific, producing large golden berries, suitable for eating out of hand as table grapes. When vinified, Villard Blanc makes a fruity, mildly intense white wine (somewhat Sauvignon Blanc like) of fairly neutral and simple flavors. Primarily used for blending.
