Chelois, Seibel 10878  Wine quality as a varietal is good.  It has moderate color, medium body and a soft mouth feel.  It improves especially when it's blended with Baco Noir, Marechal Foch, Chambourcin or Chancellor.   

Chelois is a good producer in the vineyard with a small to moderate vine size and crop.  Chelois is only moderately cold hardy and requirs a better than average site for long term consistant production.  It ripens early to mid October.
