Blanc Du Bois is a hybrid white grape variety that is well resistant to Pierce's disease and commonly found in the southern United States, especially in Florida and Texas. It was bred in Florida in the mid-20th century specifically for its resistance to diseases found in humid, warm climates.
The grape is used for making various styles of wines, including dry, sweet, and sparkling. The taste profile often includes flavors reminiscent of citrus, pear, and tropical fruits. Blanc Du Bois wines are known for their acidity, making them pair well with seafood and spicy dishes.
Despite being a relatively new grape variety in terms of wine production, Blanc Du Bois has gained recognition for the quality wines it produces, and has a growing number of wineries dedicated to its cultivation.
