5/6/2007 - timewithwine wrote: NRA blend of Cab. Frnac Merlot, Tannat and Touriga that leaves me wondering why I ever buy a wine with Touriga in it. Oh, b/c my wife likes it. Medium bodied with little to show for it. A “nice” wine that doesn’t speak to me. 13% alc. With left over hanger steak. |

3/15/2023 - steveed wrote: 92 pointsDeep Ruby, pronounced intensity with primary notes of black fruit (currant, black cherry, black plum), secondary notes of spicy cedar and mild charred oak. Palate is dry, medium acid, full body, prononced primary and secondary flavors, with a long finish. A very good to outstanding wine. The tannins are silky and, thankfully, feels and appears not to have been filtered. Drank over three nights and the last night was the best - yes, should wait another year or two to open the next one. |

12/17/2012 - noshooz Likes this wine: 87 pointsThis is my first syrah from Virginia. First tasted at the winery and was impressed enough to buy three bottles to cellar at home. It's very unique, has some basic characteristics of syrah - the pepperiness, primarily. Somewhat tannic, with a dry finish. Decent fruit on the nose and palate. Paired well with, of all things, hot dogs. Good aging potential of 6-8 years if properly cellared. This bottle was consumed after 9 months in storage. |

5/19/2018 - bschornberg Likes this wine: 91 pointsThe wine looks inky colored. The legs are slow. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It tastes like blackberry, blueberry, medium toast, violet, tobacco and eucalyptus. The body is full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity. |

12/11/2023 - jkscully Likes this wine: NRThis was really perfect for PnP with beautiful fruit and all the attractive qualities of Va terroir. But then I decanted it for about 1.5 hours (which seemed like the right choice because the tannins were still fairly tight) and it wasn’t as good. The fruit flavor dissipated and turned more plummy and the tannins became more bitter. I get velvety chocolate, graphite, espresso, mashed blackberries, faint hints of strawberries, plum, violet, allspice, vanilla, Virginia bell pepper and red clay (but in a good way here), and red bricks (imagine licking a brick and getting the mineral taste). This is a very pretty wine that was almost great. If I had another go at it, I would drink it sooner than 9 years and as a PnP. It needs a simple, light palate for the food pairing. Chicken worked better than smoked duck breast. |

8/27/2022 - caesar77 Likes this wine: 91 pointsRich murky purple with dark purple edge in color. Nose of blackberry jam, espresso and a hint of foxiness. On the palate: red berries and a hint of cocoa. Tannins are plush...holding the wine in balance, but unobtrusive and perceived only slightly on the gums. Long, persistent finish of sour cherries and sweet tobacco. Very well delineated and tremendously enjoyable. |

12/17/2023 - caesar77 Likes this wine: 94 pointsPnP. Opaque, inky purple with dark magenta edge in color. Nose of cassis, brambleberry, graphite, violets and espresso. Palate: Intense brambleberry, vanilla and graphite. Sweet, green tannins are very fine-grained and are perceived on gums. Long finish of black fruit, vanilla, cinnamon & sandalwood. Wine is in a really good spot right now. |

2/26/2024 - caesar77 Likes this wine: 93 pointsPnP. Inky purple with dark red edge in color. Nose of black currant, brambleberry & saddle leather. On the palate: blackberry compote, cassis and notes of sweet tobacco peeking through towards the finish. Fine, sandy tannins are well integrated; perceived on gums and only somewhat on cheeks. Long finish of brambleberry, sweet tannin, vanillin, pyrazine and a subtle river rock salinity. |
