Surprisingly, may need a little more time in the bottle. Going to let it open up, but so far so good. 2010

Fruity and peppery. Great tannins and appropriate for a steak frites!

This is the 2007. A very nice wine still showing powerful fruit even at the eight year mark. Still a bright ruby color. Fresh red fruit, spice, menthol, and black pepper on the nose. Palate is rich and mouthcoating and adds a nice earthiness to the mix.

Another very good Virginian wine. It's a trend that you won't find listed on Facebook.
