Interesting and cleanly made wine from Virginia. Red fruit, spices and tobacco notes. Needs some time. — 10 years ago
Tobacco, spicy, and well rounded. As a plus, one of the friendliest and most knowledgable tastings in the DC area. Occasionally they have brownies there made with their wine. — 13 years ago
At 7+ years old, this is showing its balance & varietal beauty! Dark cherry chewy fruit and classy tannins sing in harmony. Going to pair with Certified Devon beef prepared as burgers. So, the ‘14 vintage was moderate (almost cool) that was very beneficial for preserving acids. Acidity certainly adds the aging process. 1 more bottle in the cellar. — 4 years ago

Very Provençal in style - really nice with food! — 8 years ago
Has more body to it than a typical rose. It tastes like a light, smooth Cabernet. — 11 years ago

Quite a testament to the wine making and quality of the fruit… Plenty of structure left at 12 years. Certainly this benefited from the cooler nights from the 14th vintage, preserving acid. Very pleasant fruit profile. A bit of blueberry and blackberry and some chocolate. — 10 days ago
