A special start to our day at RDV. Subtle effervescence, lemon, raspberry, a touch of something sweet and an herbal tea. A great bottle! — 3 years ago
RdV. $60.00. Excellent Cab Franc. — 4 years ago
This was really impressive. My first try of Virginia wine and what a great example of the potential. Mesmerizing aromatics. Berries, herbs, coffee beans, rosemary, underbrush. Silky on the palate with a fresh and tannic finish. It’s a shame Virginia wine is almost impossible to find in Europe. If I could, I’d explore more. — 6 months ago
Vanilla and cherry nose. Great light tannin finish. Best cab in VA besides RdV. — 3 years ago
67% CF 33% PV: 34months in French!! Only 105 cases. One of the longest, most flavorful & vibrant finishes ever in a mid-Atlantic build. Ohh, the body was plush velvet with precise fruit notes. Compares to RdV...it was all that. One more bottle on hand. — 4 years ago
Lovely but needs more time in the bottle. Soft tannins, traditional Bordeaux blend. Not much of a nose! — 2 years ago
Originally had at RDV. Delicious and great value for $50ish — 3 years ago
So hard to believe that this was built on two year leaf grapes. Talk about a great rookie season! Mostly cab sauv , this did indeed punch far beyond it’s expected weight class. Complex yet fairly linear and sequential, this has the dna of the championship level big boy (glen manor/rdv/linden). While only a 375 mL bottle, it had aged remarkably well and would be worth another library investment if available ;) — 3 years ago
