Virginia

Native to the maritime growing regions of Liguria, Corsica and Sardinia, Vermentino has adapted splendidly to our warm climate in Piedmont Virginia. A spontaneously ingratiating white wine of self-proclaiming love for seafood and fish in all preparations, Vermentino’s dry but distinctly luscious minerality is complemented by generous palate weight and length, which we capture with fermentation...

A Cabernet Sauvignon made for early approachability, the wine nevertheless evolves in bottle to repay patience in its consumption. Because of its vivid fruit and moderate concentration of tannins, its food pairing range is broader than expected, while still giving great satisfaction especially with rich red meats and game.

Red ruby color. Savory aromas and flavors of spiced plum, charred nuts, pickled peppers, and toasted herbs with a silky, crisp, dryish light-to-medium body and a tingling, interesting, relaxed finish with notes of pomegranate, tomato, nuts, and cedar mulch with dusty, leafy tannins and moderate oak flavor. A dry, earthy merlot for the table.

James Suckling 93 Points Attractive deep garnet color, elegant aromas of blueberry, black currant, fresh flowers and dry herbs, the structure expresses medium body, silky tannins and a cool, refined finish. Drinkable now, yet with a long future and evolution in the mouthfeel and aromatic profile . It is very reminiscent of the stellar Octagon 2009 from a vintage considered by many Virginia...

Pinot Grigio is always at the forefront of drinkability and food friendliness in our range of white wines. It is harvested promptly when ripe, to conserve its structuring acidity, and fermented and aged in stainless steel with scrupulous isolation from oxygen. A deceptively simplified palate is backed by alluring tropical notes, suggestions of salinity and ample mouth feel.

Smooth and rich, this aromatic wine exhibits the classically unique and fruit-forward character of Norton with notes of dark cherry, plum, raspberry, dark chocolate and a touch of mint. The added Nebbiolo offers more of a red berry character with some structure from the high tannins natural to this varietal. The wine finishes with an understated oak character and some vanilla and cocoa, which...

From the head winemaker at King Family Vineyards, this wine comes from fruit just down the road in Nelson County at a family owned 5 acre vineyard.

With its savory leaning aromatics and elegant mouth feel, Shenandoah Valley Cabernet Franc this texture can be reminiscent of pinot noir. The Shenandoah Valley is home to many vineyards growing cabernet franc, which can greatly range in attributes. We believe this grape can shine as a varietal wine when it is unencumbered by heavy new oak and long aging. The result is a wine that is both graceful...

Cranberry with a blend of Cabernet Franc. These fruit wines are the result of my hobby gone wild and the long lost dream of Chateau Le Cabin finally coming true. In the early 1980's the great Horton experiment began in my log cabin in Aroda, Virginia. The cabin's cellar was full of home winemaking gear and very small barrels full of the first tastes of Horton wine. That little cabin was the start...

winery notes - Dennis Horton was the first in Virginia to use Tannat in his Cabernet Franc. He found that most Cabernets in Virginia needed color and tannic structure. So he added a small amount of Tannat. Our Cabernet Franc is a bit of spicy oak for you glass. Smooth, dark plum flavors melt into a black pepper finish. Residual Sugar: 0.2% (very low) Pairings: Grilled Portobello mushroom burger,...

The 2021 Petit Verdot is a perfect example of a full-bodied, but well balanced wine the Monticello AVA can produce, and is gaining notoriety both locally and internationally. The hot climate at ripening added concentration and broke down some of the acidity, resulting in a very balanced grape at harvest. The tannic structure balanced by the acidity and deep dark fruit notes creates a very dense...
