Chambourcin
is a late-ripening grape that requires a long
growing season to fully mature the fruit.
The
large, moderately loose bunches set medium-sized
berries that are deep blue in colour.
Chambourcin
is a French/American hybrid resistant to downy
mildew, a common problem in humid climates.
Wines
made from Chambourcin typically have an intense
purple colour that resists diminishing with age.
The
bouquet usually shows aromatic spicy, herbal and
berry fruit characters, and palate weight ranges
from quite light to full-bodied. |
