Surprisingly ripe and luscious fruit. Only just starting to show transition to secondary aromas. One of best Virginia Wines I have tasted.

Nice, full body, everyday wine. Nice with cheeses too.

The Padlock Red isn't on Delectable, but it's close to this and good!

Very smooth. Extremely drinkable. Light tannins. Little bit of pepper. Silky.

The best bottle from our Northern VA wine trip. Not saying much, but I'll take it in a pinch ;)
