RE: Market Friday: Bull Run Winery, Grapes to Glass Part Two

in Market Friday2 years ago

You are absolutely correct about the oak wood used. I like the oak barrels, but, sometimes a touch of fruit adds a nice variant. I wouldn't want to be in charge of it, but, it certainly is an interesting thing to know.

The houses in New England where I was raised are older than most of the rest of the US, they settled there first. They almost all used to have wine cellars, I know my grandparents and great-grandparents, and my own house had one. Although my dad also put homemade root beer in his. And my uncles put apple jack and cherry jack in theirs, along with the wine. Those were apple cider and cherry with a kick! It would only take one glass to call me toast. (I think they called in moonshine!LOL)

I'll stick to wine!

Sort:  

Most homes brewed something, having a cellar was a boon. Cherry jack would have been my Mom's favourite, apple cider I do enjoy after a long hot day, a straight sparkling apple with no alcohol does the trick quenching thirst during hot days.

Moonshine is the same term used here for those who quietly brew for the homestead, now with large wine farming I am not sure how many would still do home brewing.

Running large establishments relying on crop with intermittent weather conditions must be a nightmare all on it's own.
