Summer Wine Guide 2026
Six bottles Angela personally recommends for summer, with plain-English tasting notes, food pairings, and a backup pick in case your first bottle is already gone. Nothing too fancy, just perfection for summer.
Moxietown Mainstreet Maven: Angela Higgs
Angela Higgs has the gift every great Main Street needs: she makes people feel welcome before they know exactly what they came in for.
At Accordia Wine & Spirits in Staunton, Virginia, Angela has created more than a place to buy a bottle. She has built a warm, thoughtful gathering point — the kind of storefront that turns errands into conversations and makes a downtown feel more alive.
That is why Angela is one of our MoxieTowns Mainstreet Mavens.
Her approach to wine is generous, personal, and refreshingly unpretentious. Whether you need a bottle for a porch dinner, a picnic, a hostess gift, or a Tuesday that deserves a little sparkle, Angela knows how to guide without making it feel complicated.
Main Streets are shaped by people like Angela — women who open the doors, take the leap, and give a town one more reason to linger.
