Vignoles

Late Harvest Vignoles Wine Details
Price: $19.99 per bottle

Description: Late harvest grapes ripen in the vineyards for up to three weeks after our Vintner’s Select Vignoles is picked. The result is a raisin-like grape with intense tropical fruit characteristics and hints of honey and botrytis. Our Late Harvest Vignoles was named Best Dessert wine in Missouri in 2002.

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.
