Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Bruised apple and high-toned apple cider notes on the nose. It’s an appley wine with familiar hints of ginger and apple pie spice, but brisk acidity and a supple mouthfeel keeps it from being overtly homespun in style.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Char, smoke and black fruit with a whiff of barnyard perfume this Cab Franc. It’s spicy and soft on entry with lots of earthy moss and leather notes, but has a jagged acidity and choppy grape tannins.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
High-toned apple cider notes dominate the nose on this concentrated blend of Riesling, Vidal Blanc and Chardonnay from Virginia’s Veramar. Full bodied but dry with a rich viscosity and a brisk, lemony acidity, it’s straightforward, but enjoyable for a casual night’s fare.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The nose is a tad high-toned, like apple juice concentrate from a can. It’s full bodied and dry, with just a touch of sweetness on the palate, with a savory apple flavor that ends with a tart, green apple skin note.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ripe red cherries and violets along with a hint of green make for a pleasant nose on this dry, medium-bodied Bordeaux blend. Fresh, nervy acidity amplifies the elegant black cherry and dried herb notes that carry through to an earthy, brambly finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This seductive Cabernet Franc opens up with aromas of cherry, vanilla and spice leading into layers of blackberry, plum, cinnamon and cedar on the palate. Fruit and spice are balanced here, and medium tannins means the wine can age. Paired with roasted duck or beef, the wine is a sure hit.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This simple wine lacks fruit and persistence but has a mouthwatering structure and some intriguing earth and humus notes. No improvement with age.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich and round, this offers plenty of concentrated blackberry notes enveloped in warm spices and supple oak. There’s a hint of green tomato leaves throughout, but the lush fruit combined with sturdy grape tannins and high acidity would pair well with fatty short ribs or braised pork.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sawdust scents dominate the nose while butter, underlined by candied orange peel and clove, take over in the mouth. Medium finish shows some funky notes.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Cherry, pepper and warming spices lead on the red from Virginia. On the palate, cedar, spice and pepper are delivered in a big package. Pair with grilled meat, spicy cuisine.
