The Winesap fruit is small to medium with a deep, cherry red skin and a crisp, yellow flesh. It has moderate disease resistance to cedar apple rust and mildew. Low maintenance and easy growing, it blooms a few days later than other late varieties which can make it a producer when other blooms can be frosted off.
It is all-purpose, being used for fresh eating and cider. It is similar to cultivars “Arkansas Black” Ripens late October
