Duplin Winery Releases Blueberry Wine
Duplin Winery, the largest winery in the South and
the oldest continuous winery in North Carolina, has released the newest addition
to their popular varieties of Muscadine wine, Blueberry.
Duplins Blueberry Wine is sweet and 100% blueberry. While
Duplin Winery is the worlds best selling Muscadine winery, they do produce
limited-edition wines created from other fruits. Blackberry Wine is a limited
production wine and has been a favorite through distribution channels and onsite
winery sales for many years. The introduction of Blueberry Wine brings a new
fruit to the winerys limited production wine list. Its popularity is expected
to match that of Duplins Blackberry Wine.
Duplin started production of Blueberry Wine in 2009, and
officially added the wine to its sales list at the turn of the New Year. This
wine gives berry lovers another alternative. We have produced a product that is
consistent with our lineage of cool, sweet, and easy wines and will bring great
enjoyment to our fans, Jonathan Fussell, President Retail Sales, Duplin
Winery.
First announced on Facebook, where Duplin Winery holds the
distinction of the worlds largest winery fan page, the wine has been well
received. Visitors to Duplin Winery are delighted with Blueberry Wine, which is
currently on the list for the winerys daily free tastings.
Duplin Winery will bring the wine to the North Carolina
Blueberry Festival held June 19th in Burgaw. The annual festival
sees over 30,000 in attendance and celebrates the North Carolina Blueberry,
first cultivated in the 1930s. Duplins Blueberry is sure to be a hit as the
winery attends the festival for the first time.
Blueberry Wine is available at Duplin Winery in Rose Hill,
through distribution outlets and online at www.duplinwinery.com . For a full
description, tasting notes, and availability, please refer to the winerys

Society.
Its a natural fit. Our wines are cool, sweet, and easy and
perfectly paired with traditional Carolina barbecue. This has been recognized
by food critics, as well as the people who enjoy our southern cuisine daily. It
is great to play a positive role in promoting North Carolina and stand beside

President of Retail Sales, Duplin Winery.

Motor Company, and PepsiCo. NCBS has selected outstanding products as its
official product representations and Duplin Winery stands proud among this
company. As the largest North Carolina winery, this opportunity is a great way
to represent North Carolina on the national culinary stage, Jonathan
Fussell.
The North Carolina Barbecue Society will feature all of its
