Another surprising hit from Virginia even if not as impressive as the two Italian whites. Light pink color with good fruits and floral rose notes and balanced acidity on palate. Great food wine again. AA7 deal! — 4 years ago

Apple, lemon curd, grapefruit, peach, lime zest and hints of dried apricot. Racy acidity and good minerality. — 4 years ago

From my birth state, still home at heart, Virginia, Barboursville Vineyards delivers with its Nebbiolo. Medium red in color pales to a pink on the rim--slightly more colorized than Piedmonte counterparts. On the nose are hints of kerosene (believe it), mint, and cherry. Medium plus acidity, medium plus alcohol (a bit hot on the tongue), and medium bodied. Red cherry and dried herbs on the plate. Drying, but pleasant tannins. This easily compares to a Langhe Nebbiolo of equal age. It would be interesting to taste older vintages. Very proud!!!
