Fields of Fire

Fields of Fire Wine Details
Price: $7.99 per bottle

Description: This popular wine is a youthful Blush wine that can be enjoyed with any occasion. Similar to a White Zinfandel except without any sugary aftertaste, it is made from a blend of Cayuga and Chambourcin grapes. As a “refreshing” wine not requiring any food, we recommend it be chilled before serving. Alcohol 12% by volume.

Varietal Definition
Chambourcin:
A french-american hybrid used to make red wines with fruity flavors and some herbaceousness. Grown in the cooler regions of Eastern U.S. and Canada. Decreasing acreages also found in Europe; due to stringent European Union rules these varieties cannot be blended with traditional varieties.
Cayuga:
A hybrid cross between the Johannisberg Riesling and Seyval Blanc grapes. Makes a fruity white wine of mild intensity somewhat similar to Aurore. Widely grown in the Finger Lakes region of New York State and other cool regions of North America.
