No. Too light and raw from the '11 vintage and oak treatment too heavy.

2011 Blenheim Vineyards Painted Red
USA, Virginia, Central Virginia, Albemarle County
Bright acids, but a yammy core and still of the '11 vintage in lightness and raw nature. Acceptable but a good job with the starting material.

Stemmy and light - also of '11 vintage with a little extra '10 added. Still too light and too raw.

NV Jefferson Vineyards Petit Verdot
USA, Virginia, Central Virginia, Monticello
OK - 2011 vintage w/ some '10. Nice color and some good character, but oak not carried well and really not a complete wine.

NV Jefferson Vineyards Vin Blanc
USA, Virginia, Central Virginia, Monticello
Vidal + Petit Manseng with the former dominating and the latter not giving the acidic spine needed. OK.
