I think I posted about this subject before, but I'll be glad to go 'round again.
If you want something completely different, go to www.woodmillwinery.com, and see if they'll ship to you. They grow their own muscadine and scuppernong grapes, (both of which are native to North Carolina, which is the greatest place on Earth, by the way) and make wine from them throughout the winter. Their wines range from dry to sweet, just like everyone else's, and they have more "fruit" flavor than vinifera grapes impart. Some people describe them as dessert wines, but they're just as good on their own or with dinner or to enjoy on the front porch with a beautiful lady and a beautiful sunset.
Duplin Wines, made from the same breeds of grapes, but in a different section of NC, are also very good. I drank them all the time until Woodmill opened a few years ago.
I'm not connected to either winery, just a customer like everyone else.
