Petit Verdot 2019

Fantastically jammy… Completely rustic in a field fresh way. This is 5 full years from harvest and sick, like blackberry and blueberry jam preserves. Ironically, I left it vacuum’d for over a week and came back to it, and it tasted the same as when I had left it… There must be something to this natural wine stuff — 2 months ago

Jackson-Triggs Pinot Noir Arterra 2019

Warmer than I like to drink reds lol. Jammy, woody, a hint of vanilla and spice. This hits perfectly right now 🍷 — 5 years ago

Rosé 2019

I’m not a big fan of VA wines in general, but Arterra makes some good wines, and they may be my favorite at the moment. This rose is fruity, crisp, and flavorful with decent length. — 5 years ago

Chardonnay 2017

Tons of flavour. Bright notes of green apple, citrus fruits, and white flowers. Tons of creamy, mineral notes. Crisp and clean, but still lots of oak spice and fresh butter. One of the best chardonnays I've had in a long time. — 6 years ago

Reserve Virginia Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2014

Greg Ballington
9.0

Last real wine from Arterra Wines. Crimson red. Pretty tight to start, cranberrries, slight smokiness, leather and some yeast. Palate is covered in dark cherries and strong acidity. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) and fuller than the Malbec or Cabernet Franc. Long and lingering finish. This wine needs at least a year in the bottle before touching again, like Jason said he just bottled this and it is not yet ready. Definitely has some great potential! Drink till 2026. — 10 years ago

Roussanne 2019

Stunningly beautiful! Jason focuses on natural wines and the purity/precision is evident. The mouthfeel is it hallmark. Cross between a VA Oaked Viognier and a stainless steel lees stirred ChArd. Apricot/lime/almond/kiwi/geranium all merge into a Somm Super Slayer table pairing white. 100% Roussane. From Ashby Gap/ East facing Blue Ridge.  — 5 years ago

Malbec 2014

9.1

Third wine from Arterra Wines. Crimson red with garnet edges. A little more smoke on the nose than the Cabernet Franc, and more perfume. Undertones of leather and white pepper too, nicely layered. Darker characteristics on the palate, some berries too. Rolls down your tongue with an almost papery texture. Moderate tannins (6.5/10) with a moderate body, slightly fuller than the Cabernet Franc. Long and lingering finish. Would be great to try this in a couple years to see how it integrates and develops further. Drink till 2024. — 10 years ago

Dry Riesling 2015

Greg Ballington
8.9

Only white from Arterra Wines. Light and pale yellow. Very clean nose, with some pears and apricots. Clean and crisp palate. Tangy acidity (6/10) like when you bite into a Granny Smith apple. Undertones of some white fruits and tropical fruits. Very refreshing light to moderate body with a dry moderate plus finish. Solid riesling made by Jason. Drink till 2020. Grapes actually come from the Finger Lakes region. — 10 years ago
