Mountain Red
Mountain Red wine and peanut butter bars – an adult version of classic favorites. You know all of our “Mountain” wines, right? They’re pretty much a Linganore staple when it comes to our sweeter wines. Well we have our Mountain White, Mountain Pink and Mountain Berry, and a few weeks ago we introduced our newest: Mountain Red. What took us so long? The idea behind Mountain Red was to create a fruity, grapey tasting red wine for our mountain series. It’s made with Concord grapes, which give a the wine a “fresh grapes from your grandma’s backyard fence” taste. Think…

New Wines- Love at First Sip
Fewer things make us more excited than releasing NEW WINES!! We think that once you’ve tasted them, you’ll feel the same. With the popularity of our Indulgence red, we decided to add two new dessert style wines: Abisso and Midnight Bramble. Both have fruit fermented to 10 percent residual sugar and then have neutral spirits added prior to being barrel aged for about six months. Abisso is a port style wine that is slightly thicker than Midnight Bramble. If it sounds familiar, that’s because we have made it before, but this time we are using Chambourcin grapes rather than…
