Default Muscadine wines...

Really easy question here, to which I have no idea:

How good are wines made with the muscadine family of grapes?

The reason I ask is, my wife and I just purchased a home with enough land to
plant some grape vines. The problem is, we live in Virginia Beach, host to
a bunch of nasties with a taste for other grape vareties better known.

I have never tasted a muscadine grape, let alone had a muscadine wine. I
haven't been able to find a review of one as yet.

Any info on whether or not it would be worth my time to plant muscadine for
the purpose of making wine would be greatly appreicated!

Brian
