  • Like Sangiovese and Montepulciano, Barbera is one of the more popular grape varieties of Italy.  It is very productive with tight clusters and large berries.  It also benefits from a long, hot, dry growing season.  It is not suitable to cold winter temperatures.  The wines are a deep, ruby red with higher acidity.  This makes it a good wine to pair with food.  
  • Marquette is a French-American hybrid variety, proprietary to the University of Minnesota. Marquette is promising for cold-climate producers and is less susceptible to fungi such as powdery mildew and black rot.
  • Sagrantino is an Italian grape variety indigenous to the region of Umbria. It is vigorous yet low-yielding vine. It flowers early, but requires a long hot season to ripen.  
  • La Crescent is a French-American Hybrid variety. This white grape provides a very cold hardy and moderately disease resistant variety for growers.
  • Nero D'Avola, a popular variety in Sicily is also known as Calabrese.  It grows well in hot, arid climates. It will not survive in cold winter climates.  The wine is full bodied with a deep, ruby, purple color.
