Light garnet color. Aromas and flavors of cranberry chutney, sour red cherries, herbs and spices, leather, and blistered bell peppers with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, complex, very long finish evoking notes of sour cherry, plum, cranberry, and mixed herb compote with well-integrated tannins. A savory, earthy, uniquely American red blend with intriguing pairing possibilities, particularly game.

For the wine consumer jaded by the chocolate and vanilla worlds of Cabernet and Chardonnay, a little diversity in the nightly wine selection can offer a welcome respite. Though hardly the "next new thing," a number of regional specialties around the country are waiting to surprise the unsuspecting wine tourist and provide a welcome change of pace.

A number of these wines are made in states such as Wisconsin or Missouri, from grapes such as Marechal Foch, Frontenac and Marquette; they are idiosyncratic with tangy flavors and moderate tannins; they are meant for early consumption.

Our Other Red Hybrid category is specifically for less common red hybrids, or new and innovative red hybrid grape cultivars.
