I think it should have a kick :-). I'm easy on whether it has bubbles or not, or if it is thick enough to eat with a fork... I'm used to English and California ciders (Well, California had some good ones until the last drought... I think the apple grove died.)

What sort of wine do they produce? I'm a big fan of Sweet Whites (go to Bacharach for a Convention? Sure - it's got the best prices for excellent Rhine going!)
Napa tends towards Chablis, Chardonnay and Red, none of which are my fav's (red excarbates my gout, so it's off the list anyway...)
