Cupola Gold

Cupola Gold Wine Details
Price: $7.75 per bottle

Description: American Semi-Dry White Wine. Soft and delicate, this semi-dry white is fresh and fruit-filled with a smooth finish. Made from the Seyval Blanc grape, it is fermented semi-dry to capture the substantial fruit character and capitalize on its natural sweetness. This multiple international medal winner is a fabulous aperitif (think fruit and cheese) or dessert selection. It is also a lovely sipping wine for those who prefer a soft, semi-dry white.

Varietal Definition
Seyval Blanc:
A French hybrid that is often thought of as "East Coast Chardonnay," or at least an alternative to same. Produced in a crisp, dry style, this white wine is often fermented or aged in oak to enhance the rather neutral flavors of the grape itself. It lends itself to service at the dining table and is food friendly. Seyval Blanc is often used in proprietary blends; good examples can be found from Prejean, Clinton and Château Lafayette Reneau.
