North Carolina Wine TV Review:
Cypress Bend Vineyards Livingston is a true example of how good North Carolina muscadine wine can be. This off-dry wine shows only a small hint of sweetness with deep floral notes on the nose. Traditional muscadine floral notes also comes through on the palate with some notes of honeysuckle and rose. With out question Cypress Bend’s Livingston is a muscadine wine to try for its great balance and all around polished feel.
Price: $10
Availability: Distributed to many wine stores in eastern North Carolina or available directly from the winery.
Rating: 
according to the North Carolina Wine Ratings Scale
About Cypress Bend Vineyards Livingston (from the winery):
A semidry white Muscadine wine, bold of nose and taste, which eloquently captures what the grape has to say without any fancy clothes. It retains the crisp touch, lightness and zesty aromas that have become the hallmark of Cypress Bend Vineyards wines. Pairs expressively with white meat and hors d’oeuvres.

Growing the muscadine cultivars — Carlos, Noble, Magnolia, Doreen and Triumph — Cypress Bend Vineyards is taking the sweet taste of the muscadine grape to new levels in their eleven muscadine table wines and one after dinner wine.Cypress Bend’s wide variety of wine includes a Chardonnay and a Syrah.

Seems like y’all really liked this wine…do you know of anywhere in Triangle that it’s distributed?
I can dig a sweet wine on a hot evening…don’t see that I’ll ever make it to Wagram, so hopefully there’s somewhere nearer that has this for sale?
It is available at most Total Wine stores in the Triangle as well as a few other wine shops. If you get a bottle please let us know what you think!

Thanks for leaving a comment and glad you liked our review. We enjoyed the muscadine flavor of the Livingston wine without the overly sweet nature of many other wines made with this grape. Nice to know about your Jazzy Fridays, and we will try to work a visit to Cypress Bend into our schedule.
