Description:
Vignoles is a French-American hybrid developed in the late 19th Century. Vignoles is a flavorful, semi-sweet wine. Combined with a semi-sweet finish, the natural acidity helps produce a wine with character, depth and backbone. It has been compared with an Alsacian Gewurztraminer, Reisling or a Mosel. Serve with sharp cheeses, spicy foods (try Cajun, Thai and Indian) as well as pizza. The taste is reminiscent of tropical fruit and green apples.

Varietal Definition
Vignole:
Commonly grown in the cooler regions of North America, this french-american hybrid used for making white dry, late-harvest and ice-wines has its origins in the Chardonnay grape. Currently very popular as a dessert wine because of its restrained fruitiness and good balance. Same as Ravat.
|
Traminer:
Parent grape of the popular Gewurztraminer clone. Still grown in France and in California but almost everywhere has been replaced by its much more intense and spicy offspring clone.
