A dry rose that will bring thoughts of summers in Provence. 

80% Merlot, 20% Cab Sauv.  This hand-crafted wine displays powerful aromas of currant, raspberry and cedar with hints of toast and soy sauce. On the palate, oak and fruit flavors dominate with elements of blackberry pipe tobacco blended with notes of smoke and black tea. 

One of our proprietary red blends, the 2020 Grandale is comprised of 67% Cabernet Franc and 33% Merlot, a combination made famous by the “Right Bank” of Bordeaux. Blended to accentuate savory qualities of the Cabernet Franc with the high-toned red fruits of the Merlot. Aromatically, a mash up of brambleberry, wineberry, and red plum. Plush, round, and velvety on the palate due to its moderate acidity and gentle tannin structure.

33% of the wine was aged 15 months in new French oak providing a subtle framework for the medium bodied Grandale.

38% Cabernet Franc, 28% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, and  6% whiskey-barrel aged Petit Verdot

The aromas are complex with blackberry and walnut characteristics blending with notes of green tea, mint and toasted almond.  The palate displays elements of juicy raspberry and strawberry along with hints of white pepper, saffron and smoke.

Borrowing elements from each of the four grapes, this Meritage is highly sophisticated and complex. This intricate blend wine will pair with smoked meats and cheese including brisket, pork loin and smoked gouda.  

100% Petit Verdot. Aromas of plum, lilac and sage with a nice minerality.  Black fruit flavors including blackberry, black plum.  Dry, and full-bodied.

Pair with lamb, roasted pork, manchego or smoked gouda, grilled portobella mushrooms.

Cheerful in character, mild in tannins, and bright with acidity. Our 2021 Chambourcin is a flexible workhorse, equally at home slightly chilled and served as an aperitif or accompanied by fresh tagliatelle pasta with Bolognese sauce. Aromas of cassis, dried cherries, black tea, and hay give way to a medium-bodied, mouthwatering, velveteen finish. An excellent choice for white wine drinkers looking to expand their palate.

100% Chambourcin, dry.

Winner of the Loudoun Wine Association Best Sauv Blanc award!  Refreshing acidity with layers of grapefruit and notes of lemon. 

Though lovely with shellfish, this is a wine that holds up to heavier fish as well, including salmon, swordfish and tuna.  Similar to a Chardonnay, but lighter and a bit more acidic.  A versatile white in all respects.

The 2021 Altezza White marks the introduction of a new grape varietal to our winery, Petit Manseng. The young vines in the Rockpile vineyard gave a scant 1600 pounds off one acre in their first year of production yielding only two barrels of wine. One of the defining characteristics of Petit Manseng is its racy acidity, which lends itself to be blended with wines that naturally have a higher pH and lower acidity. Combining 60% Viognier and 40% Petit Manseng in this vintage we have merged the lush, creamy, peach, and apricot of the Viognier with the bracing vibrancy and tropical flavors of Petit Manseng.

The resulting marriage is a perfect wine to pair with rich white sauces that often accompany fish or poultry dishes. Think seared Chilian Sea Bass with a citrus Beurre Blanc.

This medium gold-colored Chardonnay is an easy drinking crowd pleaser. The aroma is intense with the strong suggestion of honey and apples complimented by notes of toasted almond, hazelnut and pear. The palate features unexpected body and mouth weight with elements of apple, citrus and minerality highlighted by hints of baked apple and acacia. 

100% Chardonnay.  The pale straw-colored Chardonnay Steel is a light bodied wine with surprising structure. Aromas are fruity with pear, citrus and mineral accented by elements of apple. On the palate, the wine displays bright acidity along with melon and lemon zest accented by notes of baked apple. The finish is refreshing with lingering hints of lime and green olive.

Our Blueberry Seltzer is a hot summer essential!  Light in alcohol, (8%ABV), but full of refreshment.  Made from our Chardonel grapes.

Seltzers are here!  8% ABV and full of refreshing zip, this Strawberry Lemondae Seltzer is light and refreshing.  Perfect for summer time spritzin'!

72% Chambourcin, 14% Chardonel, 14% Vidal Blanc.  The 2019 868 Estate Vineyards Canvas Red is a bright off-dry red that would be equally good on a holiday table or on a porch with an ice cube floating in it.

With its medium purple color, the aromas include raspberry jam and strawberry with hints of cherry. On the palate, flavors of strawberry jam and cranberry dominate with elements of black and blue berries. The finish lingers with notes of dried cherry.   

The Canvas is nicely balanced between its acidity and a slightly higher degree of residual sugar.  Serve Chilled.

A refreshing sweet 100% Chambourcin.  Excellent on its own, this fruity rosé will pair with spicy seafood including crab cakes and shrimp pasta, and mild cheeses.

The Vidal's luscious apricot aromas and mandarin orange flavors pair perfectly with creamy cheesecake, served by the fire.  Or indulge your dinner guests in the European tradition of after-dinner cheese with this special dessert wine.
