About Me

Hi! I'm Christina, and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech! I'm in Northern VA now pursuing a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I'd like to continue what I learned from the Geography of Wine class I took in Spring of 2012, so I'll be posting about different wines and wine events. I would be very grateful for suggestions, and I'm open to expanding my posts to beer and liquor as well!

James River Cellars 2008 Cabernet Franc


Name: James River Cellars 2008 Cabernet Franc

Variety: Cabernet Franc
Region: Central Virginia
Country: United States
Year: 2008
Price: $16
Shop Review: Medium bodied with balanced acidity and spicy-peppery character.
My Review: This Cabernet Franc was grown during a drought year, so they owners said they were dancing in the field.  Even in the aroma, there was a very concentrated aroma of dark fruits, black pepper and spice.  It tasted slightly dry with soft tannins and dark cherry flavors.
