Notes : This strain
is recommended for full bodied reds and whites. It is not recommended
for grapes that have been dusted with sulfur, because of a tendency to
produce hydrogen sulfide in the presence of higher concentrations of
sulfur compounds.
Montrachet is noted for low volatile acidity, good flavor complexity,
and intense color.
