What a lovely vineyard, thanks for the tour and the great recipe. :)
Hi, Joey, This sounds like the perfect warm drink for a fall evening. Very festive, and I will try. I'm not familiar with apple wine per se, but that's one of my favorite things about your blog--I'm always learning new delicious things to try!
Thanks P.G. for visiting ... each vineyard and wine is unique.
Hi Kathryn ... it is indeed a fun drink for around the fire on chilly evenings. Learning is also why I enjoy visiting you, dear one ;)
MMMM, gluhwein! I've also had it made with pear wine and it's quite divine.
The wine grape harvest here in the Annapolis Valley is going very well, I'm told. Here's to a great year of vintages for all good winemakers.
I also love pear wine, Jodi. And here's to a healthy great vintage year for all gardeners ... Cheers!
