Frontenac is a type of grape varietal that is primarily used to make red wines, rosé wines, and port-style wines. It was developed by the University of Minnesota and first released in 1996. The Frontenac grape is known for being highly resistant to cold temperatures, which makes it ideal for cultivation in colder wine growing regions.
Frontenac wines typically exhibit a deep garnet color and strong notes of cherry and other dark fruits. They also often have a hint of spice or earthiness. These wines are usually high in acidity, which can be balanced out through appropriate winemaking techniques.
Frontenac wines often have a high alcohol content due to the grape's naturally high sugar levels. They can be consumed relatively young, but they also have the potential to age well and develop more complex flavors over time.
