Marguerite
Marguerite
Secundo x Herbemont, TVM 1886
Physiologically, Marguerite is unique. It’s a bit labor-intensive and low-production, but fans of this wine return to it over and over. This wine is wrapped in dense flavors that belie its pale color.
Vine Characteristics
The growth on this vine is robust and resistant to mildew, which allows the fruit to hang until the end of the season.
Canes are rather “hairy”.
Dense canopy.
The dark purple, itty-bitty berries, form perfectly shouldered, tiny little clusters.
Bears heavily on long arm pruning.
Perfect flower.
Winemaker’s Notes
Marguerite is adaptive.
This red grape can be crushed and pressed immediately to make a white wine or crushed and fermented on skins for a light bodied red.
Can be used for blending or will hold its own as a single varietal wine.
This tiny but mighty crop has a distinctive and memorable personality.
