Rosemont Vineyards
Kilravock Merlot Blend
Virginia, USA
This wine gets me very excited about what’s happening with red wine in Virginia. This vintage is even better than the last. It is a well executed red blend (50%CabFranc, 30%Merlot, 20% Petit Verdot) that offers beautiful balance and structure. Fruit forward with aromas of blackberry, caramel and dark chocolate. Paired well with blue cheese! Would also pair beautifully with grilled meats.
This winery is so quaint and charming. Worth a visit. There was a book signing the day we were there. The walls are filled with art for sale. It is also used as a wedding venue.
