Varietal Character
Cascade
You're a lovable little fellow, albeit a little dim. Perhaps that is because you fail to show up for vendange school in the fall. Your truancy has not been for any lack of interest, you are always eager to participate. But invariably as summer fades you come down with a virus and are forced to miss yet another year.

Cascade Grape Details
This French-American hybrid typically produces light red wine with low acidity. Also known as Seibel 13053, this blue grape is employed by a few wineries in New York State. The grape's early ripening capabilities are a benefit to northeast growers, but its extreme susceptibility to virus infection will limit plantings of the vine.
