Frontenac

The Frontenac red wine grape was developed by the University of Minnesota and released in 1996. This vigorous grape is a French-American hybrid chosen for its loose clusters of dark blue-black berries and fruity aroma. The fruit matures in late September or early October. Frontenac is a dry wine with a deep garnet color and aromas of cherry and other red fruits with a palate of blackberry, black current, plum and sometimes chocolate has also been identified. Frontenac grapes are also used in blush wines as well as a fortified wine in the port style.
