Vidal

Vidal is a white hybrird grape variety that thrives in Canada, which is used to produce still, sparkling and icewine.

Vidal noted for its resistance to low tempreture, and refreshing acidity. It is perfect for icewine that has full-bodied and sweet aromas of honey, apricot, peach, pineapple and sweet citrus notes, with a crisp, high acidity and a light touch of minerality.

Vidal is widely grown in its native Canada, as well as in the north-east of United States. In Canada, Vidal is used to produce a variety of wines, including icewines and dry table wines. In the United States, Vidal is used to dry and sparkling wines. Vidal pairs well with a range of dishes, from seafood and poultry to Asian cuisine. It is also an excellent accompaniment to desserts and pastries.

Vidal was created in the 1930s by French viticulturist Jean Louis Vidal by crossing the Ugni Blanc and Rayon d'Or grape varieties.
