This is what good wine from the Delaware grape tastes like

The Delaware is an American white wine grape. It produces simple, fresh-fruited white wines. Dry, sweet, and sparkling wines are made from the Delaware grape. Besides the United States, it is also found in Japan and even South Korea.

It doesn't do well with phylloxera, which is one of the reasons why the Delaware is believed to have European "blood." How it got this is less clear. It may have been crossed by a Swiss Huguenot in the nineteenth century. He had land near the Delaware River in New Jersey.

Today, the Delaware is mainly found in the Midwest of the United States and in New York State. Winemakers produce it in all sorts of styles. The Delaware is not only susceptible to phylloxera but also to various diseases. That's why it's losing ground. Winemakers prefer to plant (hybrid) varieties that are resistant to diseases.

In Japan, the Delaware is an important grape. In fact, it's the most widely planted grape in the country. And you can even find it in South Korea.
