September 2010 Club Shipment
2009 Chardonnay
- Fermented and aged for 8 months in French and Virginia oak barrels. This Chardonnay offers a heavy perfume of apricot, granny smith apple, and graham cracker on the nose. The palate is treated to apple, oak, and hay character against a sublime texture. 100% Chardonnay.
2008 New World Red
- A blend of Old and New World style. Robust fruit-forward Cabernet Sauvignon from the family’s vineyard in California is blended with restrained and nuanced Virginia Cabernet Franc to produce a unique Meritage-style wine. Aged for 14 months in French and American oak barrels. Drink for the next 10 years.
