DI ARIE Proprietors Blend, Shenandoah Valley

 WHY WE LOVE IT:

  • The blend is almost 30% Cabernet Franc - we love that food friendly 'lighter than Cab' grape
  • No one component dominates - just pure elegance and balance
  • Only 199 cases produced!
  • Excellent value

WINEMAKER: Chaim di Aire (see PERSONALITY below. He has a palate!)

WHAT WE TASTED: Deep red color, with rich and dark fruit aromas and flavor. Second sip revealed mocha, cocoa and that familiar Cab Franc pepper. Firm structure, soft tannins and a long finish.
