Best Virginia Wine

Blend: 31% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Franc, 17% Syrah, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 3% Petit Manseng, 1% Tannat In 2017 Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah work as a trio in the Foothills. Across all grape varieties we had higher ripeness in 2017, and the result is darker fruit, more structure, and richness cloaking the inherent charm of the fruit from these blocks. Once again we use a small addition of Petit Manseng to bring juiciness and cohesiveness to the aromas. While we don’t generally make a cellaring recommendation with Foothills, we bottle it in screwcap to encourage you to open it, but the concentration of the vintage makes this one of those wines that we can surprise ourselves with in five or so years.

It’s hard to stay a lone wolf for long, so you’ve got to stay looking over your shoulder as the weird ones are out there. It could be time to show a little teeth and let them know your bark isn’t worse than your bite. There are always new wolves in town equally hungry and equally weird. Don’t be afraid to let ‘em know who leads the pack. The most savage vintage yet. It’s deep and bloody, dripping with meaty fruit. The broad shoulders will help it age gracefully with time, but this is no brute. Its elegant baking spice and dried floral components compliment its power.

OhhhWEEEEE That’s on the move. The acid is nervous with this one. Peel your wig back acid, y’all. Zingy, Zesty, Zippy and all the other Z words. This wine sings, it screams, it breaks glasses. Like crunching hippie crystals in your teeth, it will keep you craving more.

One of our favorite times of the year is just after harvest when the white wines are done fermenting and still in the tanks. They're chilled to the low 40's to keep them fresh and stable, and fill the cellar with beautiful aromas. Cold fermented in stainless steel for 6 weeks, the 2016 Sauvignon Blanc is without a doubt our most delicious vintage yet! Aromatics of lemon zest and fresh cut pear lead to crisp flavors of grapefruit and a hint of peaches. Serve this wine chilled alongside seafood, light pasta dishes, and chicken with basil and garlic.
