La Crescent is a pale-skinned hybrid grape variety developed by the University of Minnesota and introduced in 2002. Named after a small town in Minnesota, this grape was specifically bred to withstand very cold climates. It is also cultivated in the northern states of New York and Vermont. La Crescent is known for its relatively strong aroma and offers a range of flavors, including stone fruits like peach, citrus fruits, and even tropical notes such as pineapple.
