 Wine Details

{ amuse - bouche }  BARBOURSVILLE PROSECCO - New product now available

 This wine was designed by Luca Paschina and Barboursville Winery's Italian Chief winemaker in in Italy.

{ first course } 2018 CABERNET FRANC RESERVE- A European grape beautifully grown in Virginia terroir

This especially food-friendly wine is so varietally characterful and intriguing that its outstanding response to our terroir has sustained its ranking among the most honored and loyally followed wines we produce. We grow vines originating from the Loire Valley as well as Pomerol and St Émilion, as the foundation of a wine famed for elegance and complexity as well as considerable age worthiness.

{ entrée } 2016 OCTAGON- The region's definition in red wine

A wine of highly distinctive character, achieved in blending estate-grown Bordeaux varietals, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and/or Petit Verdot, Octagon’s great prestige rests further on its being created only in fine vintages, and with the most astute selection from the harvest. This is the highest expression of our estate’s European derivation and inspiration, crafted to be a wine of distinctive character and age worthiness in every incarnation.

{ dessert }  PHILÉO -Blithe and clean-finishing dessert romance

A non-vintage composition of Moscato Ottonel, Traminette, and Vidal, Philéo has won top honors for Moscato in international competitions and is one of the estate’s most widely loved wines. Very long and cold fermentation in stainless steel, scrupulously avoiding oxygen contact, results in a genuinely refreshing dessert wine with a light, clean finish, of great appeal with fine cheeses, fresh berries, and famously with crême brulée and tiramisù.
