Muscadine Wine. This recipe for muscadine wine makes a sweet, old-fashioned wine that is popular in the South where muscadines grow well. Muscadine grapes have been cultivated since the 16th century. They do well in warm, humid climates, and are native to the Southern U.S. The grapes range in color from green and bronze to deep purple.
Muscadine grapes yield both white and red wines, and they're famous as sweet wines because, in the past, a lot of sugar was added to resemble the flavors of other types of grapes.
