Thought that cold climates and good wine were mutually exclusive? Think again. A granddaughter of Pinot Noir, Marquette sets a new standard in cold hardy wine grapes. Finished wines are complex, with attractive ruby color, pronounced tannins, and desirable notes of cherry, berry, black pepper, and spice on both the nose and palate. Cold hardy down to -36 F or zone 4a, this self-pollinating grape is a must for any Montanan looking to make good quality, cold climate wine.

These vines are going on three years old and very large in size (several ft. long root system).
