Varietal Composition: 95% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Gris
Tasting Notes: Aromas of white flowers, citrus, apple, pear, nutmeg & a hint of sea salt give way to a creamy mid-palate with flavors of lemon, green apple, pear, and toasted hazelnuts. The wine has mouthwatering acidity with mineral undertones and a lingering finish. Reminiscent of a Macon style from Southern Burgundy.
Perfect Pairings: Halibut w/Brown Butter Sauce, Crab Cakes, Lobster Rolls & Roast Chicken
"In a profession so steeped in history, it’s inevitable that we look to the past for inspiration. While our work is informed by knowledge and techniques developed in more established wine regions of the world, we also know a vine in Virginia does not root in the same soil as Europe or spread leaves into the same sun as California. When we understand grapes on their terms, we create wines with identities that are compelling because the sun, the rain, the plant, the soil, and hands that touch these vines are unique to this place in Virginia."
