Crow Vineyard and Winery, located in Kennedyville on Maryland's Eastern Shore, makes and sells Rosé, Chardonnay, Vidal Blanc and Sparkling Vidal Blanc.
"Amongst the variety of wines offered, such as Rosé and Chardonnay, Crow Vineyard’s most popular is the Vidal Blanc. Winner of a Maryland Governor’s Cup medal, this dry premium style wine is a signature of the winery," notes Hafsa Siddiqi of Maryland Life Magazine. "They also make a hand crafted sparkling Vidal Blanc, to add a little something extra to the popular wine."
