French style Cab with soft mouthfeel evocative of St-Emilion or Pomerol. Smooth tannins and just right acidity makes this a great food wine. Best Virginia Red wine I have tasted. Can't wait to taste their "Lost Mountain".

Best Virginia wine I have had - by far. Blackberry and chocolate. Nice Bordeaux style. There are other wines I like better at that price, but I did enjoy this.

Lots of tannin and acid. Prunes and black tea with earthy notes.

A great wine, so full bodied you can almost chew it. Perfectly balanced all around with spice and dark fruit on the nose and palate. A nice long fruit focused finish.

As a Virginian, I'd never guess this is a VA wine. It's pricey at $70, but still quite lovely.
