Winemaker Notes:
The fruit aspect of this wine offers a complexity of blueberry, dried apricots, strawberry and green apple that pairs well with the cinnamon and spice notes. Just behind the fruit are some wild flowers which help accentuate the floral aspects. Additionally, there is the old-world earth character of leather and suede. A juicy mouthfeel with a fruit forward sensation rounds out the wine nicely. The tannins and oak are well balanced while not overpowering the fruit and contribute to the overall complexity of the wine.
Vintage:
A mild winter and a warmer Spring were the perfect conditions for an early bud break. The Summer months were a bit warmer, approximately 5 degrees on average, and not as much rain also helped to create a great vintage with an abundance of grapes. The humidity seemed to be a bit less as well helping to create very good growing conditions. In the Fall we did not see too much rain and the weather was very mild to warm. Overall 2017 was the best vintage I have experienced in Virginia
