This Week @ Roanoke Vineyards

 

Our First Annual Barrel Tasting in the cellars of Wölffer Estate was simply great! We had a terrific group of people, and most had never been to Wölffer, much less had the opportunity to stroll the romantic cellar where the Roanoke wines are handcrafted by Roman Roth and his team. Roman was fantastic as he led the troops through the nuances of the 2008 vintage. We tasted through all of the 2008 Roanoke Vineyards reds (except the Blend 2, which we had to cut due to time limitations), and (!) we also tasted Roman's 2008 Grapes of Roth Merlot. It was fantastic! Ace wine critic and award winning wine blogger Lenn Thompson said "I came away impressed across the board." Lenn's blog entry and tasting notes appear here. For those of you that may have missed it, we are going to repeat it in April during "Barrel Tasting Month" on the North Fork.
