This fall while fresh apples abound, try this easy recipe for Super Stuffed Baked Apples from Angels Gate Winery in Ontario Canada. We visited Angels Gate Winery last month and found it to be delightful and friendly. The owners named the winery Angels Gate to honor the Congregation of Missionary Sisters of Christian Charity in Ontario who had owned the property many years before.
