Vidal Blanc

Vidal Blanc Wine Details
Price: $16.00 per bottle

Description: Vidal is one of the most popular French-American Hybrids in Virginia. Its popularity comes from the beauty of the long amber clusters of vibrant grapes and the zesty flavor of the wine it makes. Our version is fruity, off-dry wine has a beautiful, unripe peach flavor. Refreshing by itself or with spicy foods.

Varietal Definition
Vidal Blanc:
A white French hybrid once widely planted in the south of France, it is more suitable for growing in warm and humid climates like the South. These vines are prolific, producing large golden berries, suitable for eating out of hand as table grapes. When vinified, Villard Blanc makes a fruity, mildly intense white wine (somewhat Sauvignon Blanc like) of fairly neutral and simple flavors. Primarily used for blending.
