Small
batch enological studies are conducted on the new grape varieties
to determine their wine quality. Also, research has been conducted
into understanding annual vintage variability, as well as utilizing
various enological tools to make the best wine possible with each
specific "vintage" of grapes. Vinified products from Dr.
Fiola's new grape variety research have won awards in the American
Wine Society's (AWS) International Competition. Experiments with cryo-concentration
for “ice” wines from grapes and apples are being conducted.
