Wine Rose

Spiny wild rose (also apple rose, vinegar rose, dog rose, potato rose, Scotch fence rose, bot. Rosa eglanteria or Rosa rubiginosa). It must not be confused with the vine flower (Christmas rose, snow rose), which used to be used to flavour wine. The name is derived from the intensely apple or cider-scented dark green leaves; in former times it was also called "Rosa vini". The shrub grows up to two metres high. In midsummer, cup-shaped, pink to crimson flowers open, which ripen into scarlet rose hips in autumn.

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
