Seyval Blanc

Seyval Blanc Wine Details
Price: $10.49 per bottle

Description: Double Gold medal winner at 2005 All Canadian Wine Championships. The Seyval Blanc is a silver medal award winning Nova Scotia grown wine which has a sweet and clean bouquet reminiscent of pears and citrus fruit. This full-bodied, well balanced semi-dry white wine fills the palate with apricots and blackberries supported by a citrus background. Seyval Blanc pairs well with hard cheese and chicken dishes as well as Nova Scotia’s world famous seafood.

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.
