2023 La Crescent

A refreshing, bright, approachable wine with dynamic fruit notes and a big burst of flavor. This easy drinking white is light bodied with a soft, refreshing finish and a touch of sweetness.

Hints of white peach, lime, light floral notes and pink grapefruit are prominent aromas on the nose. A luscious flavor up front with notes of grapefruit, lemon zest and lime on the tongue giving way to a crisp, refreshing acidity. Soft and easy sipping, this wine has a fruity finish that persists from the balance of acidity and light hint of sweetness. 

A new wine varietal, La Crescent is a Hybrid variety developed at the University of Minnesota. It has shown strong promise and is well suited to the cool and cold climates of the Northeast. Its winter hardiness, vigor and climate adaptability make it a natural fit for a Sustainable minded winemaker. 

This is the second release of Suhru Wines Assistant Winemaker Brad Ulrich's first dedicated wine and a unique expression of his winemaking style.  The 2022 vintage received multiple medals and Best in Class and a 93 pt rating from the 2023 International Eastern Wine Competition.
