Seyval Blanc is a white hybrid grape variety created by crossing Seibel 5656 and Rayon d'Or. It was developed in France and is now widely cultivated in cool-climate regions, particularly in the northeastern United States and England, where it produces crisp, food-friendly white wines.
Flavors & Aromas
Citrus, green apple, grapefruit, and herbaceous notes with subtle tropical fruit undertones
Winemaking & Aging
Medium-bodied with good acidity and moderate alcohol content. The wine is typically dry and unoaked, though some producers age it in oak. Seyval Blanc is known for its disease resistance and ability to thrive in cool climates, making it an excellent choice for regions where traditional Vitis vinifera varieties struggle. It has good aging potential of 3-5 years for quality examples.
