So you know your reds and your whites. Lets talk geography!
Most of the table wines you will buy are made from two leading families of grape variations. One is of European origins and the other is native American. Nearly all of the California and other western state wines are made from the European grape varieties. Nearly all of our Eastern wines are made from a relatively few strains of native American grapes and some newly developed hybrids. Heres the breakdown:
Eastern Reds (grape) ranked in order of the principle grape
#1 Isabella
#2Norton
#3Baco
#4Ives
Eastern Whites(grape)
#1Delaware
#2Elvira
#3Diana
#4Catawba
#5Dutchess
#6Iona
#7Vergennes
