Whyte Horse Winery Happenings


Abby Franks at Whyte Horse Winery let me know the crew just finished bottling their holiday wine, Jingles ($12.62). Abby describes this wine as a semi-sweet red fruity wine with a smooth finish. It is a great wine to bring to a holiday party. It also makes a great holiday gift, and comes complete with a festive red and green label and jingle bell around the neck. This is the first time this newer winery has put out a seasonal wine.

Whyte Horse's biggest seller this time of year is their Traminette ($15.89). Abby says this is a semi-dry, fruity wine that most people enjoy, and goes great with turkey or some of the sweeter items on the holiday table such as sweet potato casserole or cranberry sauce.

I plan on getting to Whyte Horse sometime next year. Right now, it's all by itself in the Lafayette area. If the vineyards are as pretty as the winery is in the picture above, I am in for a treat.
