Tom has never pressed this variety before. The grapes
were hand picked, delivered in bins. The free run was white, so he kept it
separate. The next juice coming off was a great rose color. The
final press was red, so on the grape list page, I have listed it in the 3
colors. Now to decide on yeast....

Corot Noir
Grape Harvest Hours 2008
Tuesday
to Sunday (10-5 Eastern Time)
Closed Monday.
We have found a reputable grower
who is selling us some Corot
Noir!
'Corot noir'™, a mid- to
late-season red wine grape, is a
complex interspecific hybrid
resulting from a cross made in
1970 between Seyve Villard 18-307
and 'Steuben'.
"'Corot noir'™ is a
distinct improvement in the red
wine varietal options available to
cold climate grape growers,"
said Reisch. "Wines are free
of the hybrid aromas typical of
many other red hybrid grapes, and
can be used for varietal wine
production or for blending. The
distinctive red wine has a deep
red color and attractive berry and
cherry fruit aromas."
end of quote.
It pairs well with beef, game and
other hearty dishes but will not
overpower pork and lamb.
Try it with Buffalo chicken wings!
Our winemakers have been very
pleased with their Noiret (NY
730136.17) wines and we hope they
will be excited and anxious
to try Corot Noir!
