Topical wine review:
On the twelve days of Christmas my wine love sent to me:
Hard cider had been a popular drink during colonial times and the Hewe’s Crab apple was among the most popular apples used. Hewe’s Crab, also known as Hughes' Crab and Virginia Crab, is considered one of the best cider apples and is a cross between North America’s native wild crab apple and an undetermined European variety. It is small in size and can be harsh when unfermented but creates pungent, cinnamon-flavored ciders.
The state of Virginia has almost 300 wineries and seven regions that have been designated as American Viticultural Areas. Starting in 1988, October was designated Virginia Wine Month. Here’s some info to help as you explore what Virginia wine has to offer.
