The wine region of Minnesota

Minnesota is a state located in the NorthCentral United States, bordered by Canada to the north and Iowa to the South. The state's Harsh continental Climate makes viticulture difficult. However, research at the University of Minnesota on cold-hardy HybridGrape varieties has opened up opportunities for Minnesota wine producers. The state covers 225,000 square miles between latitudes 43°N and 49°N, which puts it roughly on par with the United States.

The word of the wine: Second wine

In the Bordeaux vineyard, the second wine is a lesser-aged wine made from the youngest vines, while the main wine of the château is called the "grand vin".
