A bright floral and citrusy blend of two very compatible grape varieties. Made in stainless steel tanks to highlight the fruit character, this is wine has all the elements of a spring and summer quaffer. The aromatic intensity is very inviting; the palate is dry and crisp with enough acidity to match up to many food pairings.
2008 WINEWORKS CHARDONNAY (100% Chardonnay) $16
A blend of 50% stainless steel fermented and aged Chardonnay and 50% neutral oak fermented and aged Chardonnay. A clean, crisp and bright style of Chardonnay, with pleasing acidity and apple notes. This is an easy drinking wine that can be nicely paired with a wide range of foods and occasions.
2008 WINEWORKS ROSE' (Cabernet Franc) $12
A dry Rose' created from Cabernet Franc grapes. The grapes were crushed and soaked overnight on the skins prior to pressing. This is a classic dry rose' with great color and fresh acidity with hints of strawberry and cherries. This wine is refreshing on hot summer days.
2006 WINEWORKS RED (65% Cabernet Sauvignon/ 35% Cabernet Franc) $14
Made in a softer more approachable style, this is a wine that expresses the fresh red fruits that are associated with these classic Bordeaux varietals. The Wineworks Red blend was fermented on the skins for just 10 days to extract great color, but not any aggressive tannins. Aged in stainless steel and older oak barrels, this wine is soft with bold fruit notes and good length. Our philosophy is to make a red wine that will pair nicely with everyday meals, while still maintaining varietal character and nuance. Our Wineworks red shows that Virginia is capable of making a distinctive wine that meets the needs for value and quality.
