We shall see, im leaning towards a french grape, but it could be sangiovese, but the problem is i planted some sangiovese vines today and the leaves do not look like the ones on the old vine.
Haha..we understand your stress. Stay strong. Your followers in this thread are also ultra keen to know and are similarly hoping that it is something extraordinary.
I would love it to be some crazy cross or something cool just for the sake of having something unique. Im going to make wine out of it regardless the clusters are getting bigger every day it seems. Im going to get a good yield this year, easily enough to make a good sized batch of wine so im really looking forward to trying it and seeing what we come up with.
According to what I read about Muscat Of Alexandria which is a ancient white wine grape, that grape is sweet and mission is typically used to make sweet red wines. And Fortified wines so it should probably be a sweeter red wine.
Muscat is known to be sweet as hell, very aromatic and very grape forward flavor. It should possibly be a sweet high alcohol wine. Nobody knows as th cross is rare enough that I was told nobody has enough to make a batch of wine from my grape.
Theirs 8 or so variants of it but they are all different mutations if that makes sense, South America has a white and red variant but the flavors are radically different. I was told by Mike at Carlisle winery that they occasionally find my specific varietal in old vineyards that are abandoned but never in enough quatity to make wine. I don't want money out of it. I'm not even going to get licensing to sell I'm just going to send out bottles to anyone who wants them. You just have to pay shipping costs if you aren't in the us.
