LIGHTWELL SURVEY brings together a diverse blend of grapes for a versatile table red wine, each contributing unique flavors and characteristics. Crafted in Virginia, this wine features Chambourcin for its deep color and berry fruit, Petit Manseng for its vivid acidity and tropical notes, Vidal blanc for crispness and potential in sweet wines, Riesling for its wide stylistic range from bone-dry to intensely sweet, Chardonel for a clean white with apple and citrus flavors, and Traminette for aromatic complexity reminiscent of Gewurztraminer. Expect robust red fruit flavors balanced by refreshing acidity, making it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes including barbecue, pork, and spicy Asian cuisine.
