Narrative

Information taken from: http://www.wine-lovers-page.com/wineguest.wgg.html: "Also known as the Blauer Limberger or Lemberger. The latter name is used for the grape where found in Washington state in the U.S., which has sizable planting of this variety at last report and it is currently recommended for the Finger Lakes region of New York State as a cold hardy winegrape showing good yields and ripening in early to mid-October. Frequently used for blending with Pinot Noir. Wines made from this grape grown in N.W. America are described as being 'Merlot-like with mild tannins and havinga dark chocolate/raspberry flavor'. Wines made from this grape reportedly have low levels of histamines. It is the normally higher amounts of this compound found in many other red wines that can cause allergy headaches in some people."
