Our rich, red wines are aged in oak barrels in the traditional
French style to produce a satisfying experience all by themselves,
or paired with hearty red-meat dishes and vegetarian stews.
| 2005 Merlot |
| This Merlot is made in a medium-bodied, food-friendly style, reflective of the growing season of 2003. The understated charm and well mannered tannins make it a natural companion for a wide range of pasta dishes of all shapes, sizes, colors, and persuasions. |
| [82% Merlot; 12.5% Tannat; 4.5% Chambourcin; 1% Tinta Cao] |
| 2005 Cabernet Franc |
| An easygoing Cabernet Franc amply displaying the versatility that this varietal can achieve. Delicate blackberry aromas and flavors, and soft, smooth tannins make for an inviting accompaniment for a host of traditional and non-traditional red wine pairings. |
| [75% Cabernet Franc; 8.5% Chambourcin; 8% Tannat; 5.5% Petite Verdot; 3% Tinta Cao ] |
| Spotsylvania Claret |
| A nose of chocolate-covered berries enhances this off-dry
Italian-style red. Smooth with a lively acidity that pairs well
with a wide range of foods, it is our most popular wine that satisfies both new and experienced red wine drinkers. |
| [33% Cabernet Franc; 25% Tannat; 16% Merlot; 12% Cabernet Sauvignon; 10% Chambourcin;
2% Touriga; 1% Petite Verdot; 0.8% residual sugar] |
| Totally Red |
| No red cherries, no spicy berries, no toasty nuances, no suggestive notes...just Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Tannat, Touriga, and Chambourcin. |
| [0.4% residual sugar] |
