Confederate Rose

Confederate Rose Wine Details
Price:

Description: The perfect blend of the red muscadine, and the bronze scuppernong, create a uniquely smooth and light fruity wine with character. Had Grant tasted this, he would have surrendered to Lee immediately.

Varietal Definition
Scuppernong:
Native american Muscadine grape variant with the usual characteristic "musky" flavor. Mostly confined to the South-East and Gulf states of the U.S.
Muscadine:
A species of native American vines that were first discovered by European explorers, who found them growing along the low lying Southern coastal regions. Most Muscadine wines (reds and whites) are blends, usually given proprietary names by the winery (e.g., "Vintners' Blend"), and vinified in the sweet or semi-sweet style. Muscadines and blends are usually sweet and foxy (a unique aroma/flavor profile variously described as wild and musky).
