Description:
Chambourcin is one of the more recent French hybrids, developed by Cornell University and first commercially available in the early 1960's. It's known for it's deep color, yet despite its rich appearance, it makes a light red wine, much like the fruity reds of northern Italy. Chambourcin makes a good choice for grilled foods, even if you slather on a hot and vinegary barbecue sauce.
