I'm testing a tiny sample 100 cl my back yard Vitus Labrusca (Niagara and Red Vanessa) which my LA wine sales Buddy says are "table grapes", wasting my time he says. The Labrusca grows amazing West Reno/Verdi, East Slope of the Sierra 5,500 feet. I'm tired of European flavors, why not try this. First fermentation at 65 Deg Fah took 14 days no added yeast. Another couple weeks for the second fermentation. 25% Niagara 75% Vanessa...Rose. Vitus Labrusca!!
The Niagara whites have the huge compound above, but the Red Vanessa hybrid is not slip skin and much less of the compound, so I am trying 1 part Niagara 3 parts Red Vanessa rose style. 1700 Meters Eastern Sierra. These were propagated in Eastern Oregon all Great Basin.
I love these vids where you interview wine growers. 🍷
Didier's the man!
Agreeeee
I just love hearing French people speak English especially when talking about wine

My dad grows table grapes on his pergola - still made a decent low alcohol wine with it
