Wines made from Seyval blanc grapes of Hudson River Region
Discover the best wines made with Seyval blanc as a single variety or as a blend of Hudson River Region.
Lively, taut whites with a slender palate and fresh acidity, with aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), green apple, white flowers, pear and discreet herbal notes. Refreshing finish; best drunk young. A cold- and disease-resistant interspecific variety, it produces whites and sparkling wines in the UK (Kent, Sussex), Canada (Quebec, Ontario) and the northeastern US. French hybrid created by Bertille Seyve (Seyve-Villard 5-276).
Pioneer New York State AVA along the Hudson north of Manhattan up to Albany. Maritime climate tempered by the valley, harsh winters (-6 C) imposing hardy French-American hybrids. Signature Seyval Blanc as white king: pale straw, vivid and precise with citrus, green apple and a mineral touch. Ample Cayuga White, aromatic Traminette.
