Cabernet Franc Reserve
A nice, medium bodied wine with great cherry and chewy mocha flavors. Will cellar with excellence up to 5 years. 100% Cabernet Franc..

Chardonnay Reserve
With the slightest gossamer of vanilla, the emphasis is on the grape. Created in the old-world style, this wine is drier than many and refreshing at any occasion! Fermented in stainless steel and aged in neutral French oak barrels

Norton
Traditional Norton with a splash of Chambourcin. Flavor reminiscent of berrystreusel tart. Pairs well with your favorite BBQ recipe..

Petit Verdot Reserve
Won Best in Show at the 2010 Virginia State Fair. Aromas of dark cherries with hints of mushrooms, earth and smoke. This is a winter-weight wine-- deep rich palate weight and structured tannins. Finish is moderately spiced with suggestions of nutmeg and black walnuts.

Viognier Reserve
A smooth palate with flavors of tropical fruits including peach, guava, orange, kiwi, and passion fruit. This delicious wine finishes with a light hint of cream and butter and has undergone a partial malolactic fermentation. Fermented and aged in a combination of neutral and new Hungarian and French oak..

Norton Wine Review: What a delightful 2008 Norton wine "case" gift from my daughters traveling from MA to SC. Seemingly this is an award winning Norton wine from a rather new setting. From BOW comes this note - "This is the first wine to take best red in an international competition since the 1800s." Upon opening my first bottle, this was a good Norton wine which currently displays high tannins and a lack of maturity. I will get back to you in four years when I open the second bottle . . . . . . . . Now as for BOW ambiance, our daughters noted that this was a beautiful facility which unfortunately was very crowded and loud. They stated it took them over 20 minutes to get service on a pre-ordered case of wine.
