Ok so I was at a winery in West Virginia and got a bottle of van buren . It was awesome. Do I have been looking for a place to get grapes or juice to make this. Can anyone point me in a direction? Thanks
 
Looks like a custom blend.
If you can find out what grapes they grow that would be a start.
You might even get them to give up a few secrets if you ask the right questions
Then start making and blending.
 
I found what’s think you are referring to, and since they list it as “red wine”, they don’t say what varieties of grapes they use.

Also saw this: Our red wines run the spectrum from bone dry to very sweet. We use vinifera, French hybrid, and American varietal grapes, and American oak barrels. We craft modern takes on old-school classics.

The reviews say that it is a sweet wine, so probably a good dose of residual sugar.
 
Asked the people at the winery and they said it was a type of grape. The van buren is the only grape in the wine. It is a red and has a similar taste to a Steuben. Crisp clean and fruity. Very tasty.
