Tasting Notes

"The Roanoke Vineyards 2005 Merlot certainly testifies to the quality of the vintage, as well as to the talent of the team that produced it"  ----Tom Matthews, Executive Editor, Wine Spectator

 

We're hoping you still have a bottle in your cellar. Maybe you'll bring it out for the holidays, or maybe you'll save it until the kids graduate. Either way a perfect moment awaits. Another great Merlot from Roanoke is about to go into the barrels, and we're already looking forward to introducing you to the 2009 vintage!
