Winemaker's description
This wine is a
semi-dry Vouvray style wine. Made from hearty Villard Blanc grapes, it goes
well with light meals, poultry and fish.
Price: $12.99 at Total Wine
A nice, pleasant earthy and
floral bouquet is the first introduction to this selection. And when the winemaker claims to be one of
the last using Villard Blanc grapes, after the first sip, we hope they continue
doing so. This wine is unique and crisp
and is ideal with any appetizer. In an
evening of food and wine, this would be a great fist glass.
Given its unique flavor, we
believe this is a must try for all Virginia wine lovers.
Nose is grassy and earthy.

unique easy drinking white that can be enjoyed on a summer’s day, by a fire in
the winter or any time. We recommend
this wine without hesitation.
