More than what the name implies, this has been a wine in the works for years. It’s hard to to make a balanced riesling wine without some sweetness to level out the ubiquitous acid, but this vintage, plus stabulation, provided the needed aromas and flavors to equal the crisp acid for this exciting release.
Grassy, tropical bouquet with fruit and lemon zest on palate, and a tart, long, fresh finish. Pairing with sushi is a no-brainer. Try this as a change up to your favorite un-oaked Sauvignon Blanc.

100% Cabernet Franc

Harvested at night to keep the fruit cool and retain acidity and freshness, this rosé is 100% Cabernet franc. We call it “Saint” Rosé, but the St. actually stands for stabulation, a pre-fermentation process of keeping grape berry particles mixed in suspension in the juice for an extended period in order to extract more aroma and flavor. Pretty, pale color and lovely flavors of strawberry and tropical fruit. It’s well balanced and will pair well with a cheese course, cassoulet, or caesar salad.

Our first white wine from the excellent 2023 harvest, this Petit Manseng is drier than the last vintage. It features developing aromas of tropical fruit, a round but not flabby mid-palate, and a firm long finish. It may seem austere at first but opens up with complexity. Seafood dishes prepared with butter or cream will do well paired with this wine.

2024 A6

The return of an old favorite… As usual the wine is a blend of Viognier and Chardonnay (53%/47%). In this vintage, the Viognier grapes were fermented whole berry (orange wine) while the Chardonnay was pressed cold and the juice racked clean before fermentation. Both wines were barrel aged and combined for this intriguing delight. It opens with apricot and white flowers and finishes with complexity and minerality. Though a white variety, Viognier is a highly tannic grape, and you will note some tannic influence from the skin contact, but this added structure will mellow and sweeten with age, and indeed protect the wine while aging. 

The Story behind The Name: A6 is the name for a highway in France, also called the Autoroute du Soleil (motorway of the sun) which stretches from Paris to Lyon. It also connects the traditional Chardonnay growing region, Burgundy, to the tiny area famous for Viognier, Condrieu.

Considered a true "halbtrocken" or half-dry Riesling, it's sweetness is balanced by natural acidity. It's round on the palate, but crisp on the finish. Our first screw-capped wine is now easier to store an opened bottle, and even easier to bring along on hikes and picnics. A true "food wine", it pairs with varied dishes from gyros to tacos. 

A semi-dry wine featuring charming flavors of apple, pear, and quince plus complexity in mouthfeel and finish. Great on its own or a good choice for a wine spritzer cocktail. Pair with fried chicken or oysters! 

Lemonticello

A brand new wine, it’s our take on the Italian liqueur, Limoncello, but with wine, not vodka. It’s like a liquid lemon drop! This is 2024 Cardinal Point estate grown Riesling with natural Lemon flavor added. We can’t say all that on the label as this is a “recipe wine” according to the TTB. So no vintage date or appellation (Monticello) are allowed. In fact the label can’t even say “Virginia wine”… so we had to get creative with the name to give this wine a sense of place. Hope you like it, but let us know. Drink it chilled, of course, and maybe even on the rocks with a little soda.

A lighter bodied red blend of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Aroma of currants and red fruits, good acidity, and friendly tannins. Start by pairing with pasta or pizza with red sauces, but the wine works with many dishes.

As always, the fruit for this wine was grown by nearby Clay Hill Vineyard. This latest vintage, has the classic flavors and aromas of Cab Franc we expect for this wine like cherry, spice,  and cedar. It will definitely gain more richness with time in the bottle.

Our co-ferment of 92% Cabernet Franc and 8% Viognier returns. Counterintuitively, the white varietal Viognier used in the blend helps stabilize the wine’s color and adds tannins, mouthfeel, and structure. The wine features a velvet feel, garnet color, and varied complexity. Notes of cherry, toffee, and vanilla. It's light in body but firm, almost chewy at the finish. Try with anything from the grill.

Plum and red fruit aroma and flavor stand out, with silky structure and just firm enough tannin. Pairing with red meat or tomato based pasta dishes will be a winner! 

2022 Union

65% Petit Verdot, 21% Cabernet Franc, 14% Tannat

We are releasing to the public this month, and it is arguably our flagship bottle. This version, still very young for the style, has dark cherry and cotton candy aromas with blackberry and rhubarb flavors. Barrel aging gives some structure before a long, strong finish. It features a pleasing palate weight and acidity. The wine opens up with time in glass so swirl away. Pair with ribeye steak or Mom’s lasagna. Also a great candidate for cellaring.
