Hey well I wasn't that far out there.......
Here's a bit from Wiki....
Vinegar has been made and used by people for thousands of years. Traces of it have been found in Egyptian urns from around 3000 BC. In the Bible, it is mentioned as something not very pleasant (Ps. 69:21, Prov. 25:20), but Boaz allows Ruth to "dip her piece of bread in the vinegar" (Ruth 2:14). Nazirites, on the other hand, were not allowed to drink either wine vinegar or malt vinegar. Jesus was offered vinegar or sour wine while on the cross (Matthew 27:48; Mark 15:36). Louis Pasteur showed in 1864 that vinegar results from a natural fermentation process

Actually The Stones treated LA almost as their second home much earlier. The Hollywood RCA studio was their main studio from early-65 to late-66. They recorded all the big singles from "Satisfaction" to "Paint It Black" there, almost all of OUT OF HEADS (and DECEMBER'S CHILDREN), the whole AFTERMATH, and some songs of BETWEEN THE BUTTON and FLOWERS. In ALO's 2STONED book there is a good description of those times how the Stones were the 'hip' center of music scene there at the time. One was is to say that in those big 'pop' years, there is a certain Californian flavor in their music. And I guess there was among the busy work possibilities to taste the local wine...

yes yes, I know they were out in LA in the mid 60's as well. Since Sweet Virginia is a country song It makes me think of Grahm. And they hung with him during their time in California in 69. Sweet Virgininia wasn't recorded that much later so it makes me think the lyrics were inspired by their more recent visit. That ALO book sounds interesting, Id like to check it out some time.
