Fig Tree Care in Cold Weather

Question

I planted a fig tree this past spring. It grew well and even produced some fruit! A friend said that it needs to be wrapped in burlap for the winter. I am just outside Philly, PA (I think Zone 6 or 7). Do I need to wrap it? When should I do it? How should I do it? Is burlap the correct product? Any other hints to keep it healthy?
