This Niagara wine is a charming tribute to the historic Alexandria Bay region, produced on a farmstead dating back to 1836. Founded by a retired Army Major who saw the potential for world-class viticulture in Northern New York, the winery specializes in cold-hardy grapes that thrive in the crisp St. Lawrence River air. This semi-sweet white offers the nostalgic, old-fashioned taste of fresh-picked table grapes, delivering a lush and aromatic experience that is uniquely American. It is an approachable and fragrant find that perfectly captures the spirit of the Thousand Islands.
