Cabernet Franc
A versatile Cabernet for food pairings with medium-bodied cheeses, grilled or roasted meats, and rich sauces. Well-balanced with a very rich, ripe tannic structure. Flavors of ripe raspberry with a velvety mouth feel. Floral notes of violet on the nose and a hint of pepper on the finish. Aged in new French oak for nine months.
|
Late Harvest Dessert Wine
A lovely red dessert wine with 3.5% residual sugar. Made from a blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot in 2007 when we had the good fortune to experience 8 weeks of dry sunny days and cool nights, thus the perfect situation for a late harvest wine.
|
Merlot
The Merlot is a well-balanced wine with ripe tannic structure and elegant dark cherry and rich black currant flavors. The wine is barrel-aged for more than twenty months.
|
Oak Chardonnay
The oak blend Chardonnay is fermented and aged for seven months in French and Virginia oak barrels and blended with the steel Chardonnay. The result is a pleasing combination of ripe fruit with balanced acidity, toasted vanilla and almond flavors.
Pairs well with: poultry, pork, salmon, shellfish, cream-based sauces and pastas
|
Rosé
Off-dry with a hint of sweetness, the Rosé is produced by limiting the time the Merlot grape skins are in contact with the juice during the fermentation process. This produces a wine of lighter color and reduced tannins yielding floral characteristics with hints of strawberry and cranberry flavors.
|
Steel Chardonnay
The Steel Chardonnay is made from the French Dijon grape clones 95, 96 and 76 and fermented in stainless steel, temperature-controlled tanks. It is a pure expression of the varietal, vineyard site and vintage. The result is a wine with a tropical fruit flavor and crisp acidity.
Pairs well with: oysters, clams, flounder and other seafood
|
Vintner's Blend
Vintner's Blend is a classic Bordeaux-style wine made from Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes barrel-aged in French oak. The blend was created from the vintner's choice of select barrels. The result is an elegant and well-integrated wine with good tannic structure and ripe fruit.
