• Chambourcin: (shahm-bor-SAN) produces a medium-bodied dry wine with a fruity aroma and cherry and earthy/spicy complexities.  Chambourcin goes well with barbecue, pork and pasta dishes.  Blumenhof grows 3 acres of Chambourcin.

• Chardonel: (shahr-duh-NEL) A hybrid of the famed Chardonnay grape and the popular Seyval, this has become Blumenhof's featured white wine.  Wines are very similar to Chardonnay.  Chardonel is often fermented in French oak barrels resulting in a wine that is dry and full bodied.  This is great with heartier seafood dishes as well as pasta with butter or cream sauces.  Blumenhof grows 4 acres of Chardonel.

• Cynthiana: (sin-thee-AN-uh) Cynthiana, a native American grape that produces a rich, full-bodied red wine with character that is often compared with Cabernet Sauvignon.  Ever since a Missouri Cynthiana won the First Medal of Merit at the Vienna World Exposition of 1873, this varietal has repeatedly received rapturous reviews from red wine lovers.  Brooding dark color accompanied by a bouquet of spicy oak, black cherry, vanilla, and hints of coffee and cocoa.  These flavors complement red meats and other richer foods.  Blumenhof grows 2 acres of Cynthiana.

• Rayon d'Or: (RAY-on DOOR) A grape variety that has been widely planted in the Loire Valley of France, where it became a parent of both Seyval and Vidal Blanc.  The grapes ripen beautifully in our Treloar vineyard, producing a wine that shows both an herbal - citrus crispness and a delightful spiciness.  Makes a fine aperitif.  Blumenhof grows 1 acre of Rayon d'Or.

• Seyval: (say-VAHL) This white grape makes a wine that is crisp and light and exhibits an herbal-citrus character.  These flavors compliment lighter foods.  It is excellent with seafood, lighter cheeses and pasta dishes.  Blumenhof grows 1 acre of Seyval.

• Vidal: (vee-DAHL) Our most versatile white grape is used to make wines ranging in flavor from dry to a sweet late harvest dessert wine.  Vidal's clean, citrus flavors of lemon and grapefruit create wines that, other than the dessert wine, will compliment many varieties of foods.  Blumenhof grows 7 acres of Vidal.

• Vignoles: (veen-YOLE) This grape produces a wine that has a luscious floral aroma and fruity flavors of pineapple, pears, and apricot.  The wines are an ideal accompaniment for fresh fruit and fruit desserts.  Blumenhof grows 4 acres of Vignoles.
