Colona White

Colona White

Description

Illinois State Fair Winner

A semi- sweet white crafted from our own Illinois Grown LaCrescent grapes from Backroad Vineyard. This wine possesses a fruity, crisp flavor, with hints of tangerine, apricot and spice. Reminiscent of Riesling.

Our Colona Red and Colona White wines are as intriguing as the city they are named after. Located in Henry County, Colona, Illinois became an official town in 1855. However, no one really knows how the name came about. Legends support four theories; from discovering "coal on a bank", to the abundance of wild flowers creating "cologne" in the air, a traveler named Mr. Colona or a shortened version of the word "Colonial". Since then, the city has embraced such visitors as Abraham Lincoln, Tom Mix and General Pershing and is called home by opera star, Tony Dillon, baseball player, Baby Doll Jackson, racing champion, Lou Fenno and last but not least, Lavender Crest Winery. Cheers!
