Vidal Blanc

Vidal Blanc Wine Details
Price: $8.49 per bottle

Description: Gold Medal - 2006 Missouri State Fair, MO . This fine, dry white is produced from Vidal grapes grown in our own hilltop vineyards. The lovely, fruity aroma with a touch of oak makes it a perfect companion to seafood and poultry. Comparable to Pinot Grigio.

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.
