Rosemont Vineyards  Block A  2023


Origin
: LaCrosse, Virginia
Retail:
 $19.95 | Sale: $17.95

In 2018, one of the hardest vintages Virginia has ever seen, Rosemont had to get creative in their winemaking.  Block A emerged as the result of blending two grapes together that grow side by side in Block A on their estate - their Pinot Gris and their Chardonel.  The end result was bright, fresh, and crisp.  The 2023 vintage is 100% Chardonel and has elegant aromas of lemon curd, pear, paperwhites, and minerality.  It’s beautifully crisp with refreshing acidity and is a perfect pairing for seafood. 100% Chardonel

Rosemont Vineyards  Merlot 2021

Origin: LaCrosse, Virginia

Merlot is one of the most consistent grapes grown at Rosemont.  It’s always well-balanced with beautiful tannins with earthy aromas.   It generally ripens before any late-season rains develop on the East Coast.  This Merlot shows the best of the terroir at Rosemont Vineyards with aromas of black cherry, toasty oak, hazelnuts, and anise.  Flavors of bold blackberry and dried fruit compliment its velvet-smooth tannins.   100% Merlot
