About Noiret: Moderately cold-hardy grape created from a complex cross in 1973 at Cornell University and it withstands temperatures to -14 °F. Noiret produces wines with a deep red color, good tannins, and unusually robust pepper overtones.
About Baco Noir: French-American hybrid grape variety that prefers cooler climates for growing. This grape is a grower-friendly alternative to Pinot Noir. It produces light to medium body red wines with good acidity and rich fruit tones.
About Corot Noir: Also developed at Cornell University and released in 2006. Produces a deep red color, similar to Noiret, but reflects berry and cherry fruit aromas.

First in the Nation White
Every four years, Granite Staters celebrate New Hampshire’s long history of “First in the Nation” status, casting our votes for President of the United States of America. We designed this special label for our award-winning Chardonnay wine, in honor of Primary Tuesday – New Hampshire style!
Our Chardonnay finds balance in both body and style due to limited aging in barrel with additional oak infusion. Winemaker Amy LaBelle blends the traditional Chardonnay grape with the cold-hardy Vidal Blanc, creating a wine true to our New England fruit. Malolactic fermentation, a secondary fermentation that converts malic acid to lactic acid, lends a buttery nose, while crisp acidity and floral tones are demonstrated due largely to the addition of the Vidal Blanc. This blend is a wonderful complement to any poultry or seafood dish.
