2009 Viognier – Ducard vineyard
- From the Ducard vineyard in Madison County, this is the first release from the 2009 vintage. Partially fermented in oak barrels, this wine is classic Virginia Viognier. Ripe aromas of apricot, honeysuckle, honeydew melon, and citrus fruits persist through to the palate. Short barrel aging highlights the fruit character while letting the fruit dominate. Malolactic fermentation was blocked, retaining the natural acidity which provides a crisp finish. Drink now and through the next 12 months. 75 cases made.
2007 New World Red
- A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from the family’s vineyard in northern California and Cabernet Franc from our estate vineyard at the winery. Intense ruby color accompanies aromas of black fruit and toast against a robust palate. Aged in French and American oak barrels for 12 months. Complete malolactic fermentation. Will age for at least 5 years.
