This Concord-Niagara blend is a customer favorite here at Presque Isle Wine Cellars, dubbed "Blushing Heroin" by some local wags for its addictive flavor. Our award-winning sweet, grapey fusion offers a perfect marriage of classic white and red native Vitis labrusca flavors and aromas. We ferment local grapes for a light color and body that suits any wine-drinking occasion.
