Itasca Wine Grape

(P.P. 29847) A new wine grape released by the University of Minnesota. These grapes have a lower acidity and high sugar levels, producing a dry white wine containing aromas of pear, quince, violet, melon, minerals, and subtle honey notes. Vines are extremely cold hardy and exhibit excellent resistance to both downy and powdery mildew as well as the insect phylloxera. Fantastic for growers looking to reduce spraying or anyone wanting to make a good white wine. Ripens midseason.
