Cornell has released two new grape varieties- Aromella and Arandell. In this episode of the Presspad we talk with grape breeder Bruce Reisch and enologist Anna Katharine Mansfield about how the grapes came to be released and named, and some of the wine choices producers might wish to make with them.
