Locally used name for a wine produced from the species Vitis labrusca (synonyms Fox Grape, Strawberry Vine, Skunk Grape) with typical foxy such as Americano (Switzerland), which is also called "strawberry" as well as Fragolino (Northern Italy). Strawberry Grape is a synonym for the Isabella variety. See also under strawberry aroma.
In the past, you needed a wealth of encyclopaedias and specialist literature to keep up to date in your vinophile professional life. Today, Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one of my best helpers and can rightly be called the "bible of wine knowledge".
