The final Northern Grapes Webinar will discuss the characteristics of this new variety including tasting notes, growth habit, and juice chemistries. Matthew Clark is an assistant professor of grape breeding and enology at University of Minnesota. His research focuses on traditional and molecular plant breeding techniques to develop improved cold-hardy grape varieties for wine production. Jennifer Thull, gardener, and John Thull, research professional, work in grape breeding and enology at University of Minnesota.<\/p>\n
