I don't think so. But you can still get the trees, and I suspect that
AppleSource carries the apples.

If any of you lives in Blacksburg, VA, I planted a sops of wine by the
basement door of 703 Hutchinson Ave. about twenty years ago; I don't know
if it is still there. One of my abandoned orchards.
