MAIN Wines North America USA Maine

The northern climes of Maine are not particularly ideal for grape growing, but with varieties requiring short growing seasons - such as the Fredonia, Seedless, and the Delaware grape - Maine winemakers do very well, thank you.

And with blueberry, strawberry and pear leading the way, the grape is not the only fruit to make its way to the vats.

Even cranberry wine makes an appearance in season.
