Episode 136: Rock of Ages Cork & Pork

North Carolina Wine TV Review:
The Rock of Ages Cork & Pork sweet red wine was made to go with barbecue. The nose has cinnamon apples, cherry, thyme, rosemary and a bit of green stem smell. The taste is very sweet without much of a fruit flavor, with some funky bitterness. It tastes like a cranberry pixie stick that would go well with food, especially a spicy, vinegar barbecue. It is little off to us, but fans of sweet wine will like it, especially when served with food.

Rating: ★★½☆☆ according to the North Carolina Wine Ratings Scale

Price: $9.50

Availability: From the winery and in stores across NC

About Rock of Ages Winery (from the winery):
The Rock of Ages Winery & Vineyard is located in North Carolina’s southern Person County on the Moore family estate where tobacco was grown for generations. Communion wine was also produced on this land by Ernest Moore for area churches in the early 1900s. Now, his grandson, Kevin Moore and his wife, Kimberly, are carrying on that tradition as they are…”blending the old into the new.” The first of the vineyard’s 26 acres were planted in 2003. Construction began on the winery facility in November, 2005 and the grand opening was in October, 2006.
