Excellent Wines from
Cold Hardy Grapes
The University of Minnesota initiated a breeding program for wine grapes in the mid-1980's. In 2000, we completed a state-of-the-art enology lab and research winery. Today, we're recognized as having one of the top wine grape programs in the United States. Our goal has been to develop high quality, cold hardy, and disease resistant grape cultivars. We're delighted to offer you four outstanding grape varieties that can create excellent wines: Frontenac, Frontenac gris, La Crescent, and Marquette.
Coming Soon: Frontenac blanc!
