We’re now well into October, so I thought it would be good to recap our September experiences with a quick month in review.\u00a0 The mini challenge we set for the blog has concluded successfully: Review 30 wines (or wineries) in the 30 days of September. NC Wine Month is a time where the wineries and vineyards in the state are recognized for their contributions.\u00a0 Our goal was to feature a wine or winery each day and write-up a little review of the selection we made.\u00a0 In total we reviewed 28 North Carolina Wines and 8 North Carolina Wineries.\u00a0 For a full account of our challenge, click on the NC Wine Month<\/a> link in the menu above.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

It seems like the month of September flew right by.\u00a0 We went back to our books to look over the wines we reviews. The tally stands at 10 reviews for red wines, 14 reviews for white wines, 2 reviews for ros\u00e9, and 2 reviews for dessert wines. Of the total wines, Cabernet Franc was the most popular of the red selections while Viognier and Chardonnay tied for the whites.<\/p>\n
