PAINTER CREEK WINERY RAMS HEAD

At Painter Creek Winery, you can savor a glass of Marquette, a cold-hardy red hybrid grape from the northern United States known for its bright and spicy flavors with cherry and berry fruit. As a modern variety developed by the University of Minnesota, it's perfect for regions where traditional Vitis vinifera varieties struggle in harsh winters. Expect medium-bodied wines with lively acidity and moderate tannins, showcasing notes like cherry, blackberry, cranberry, black pepper, and sometimes earthy or smoky undertones. Whether you prefer dry reds, rosés, sparkling wines, or blends, Marquette offers a versatile choice that pairs beautifully with grilled sausages, barbecue, roast pork, mushrooms, and tomato-based dishes.
