Big Future for Petits: Historically, Petit Verdot was a blending grape; Petit Manseng, a sweet desert wine. Now half of this year's #VAWineGovernorsCupCase comes from these two grapes. Plus Petit Verdot is the dominant grape in the Governor's Cup Winner from @delfossewinery

Big Future for Petits in #VAWine: Half the #governorscupcase wines come from the small berries of Petit Verdot or Petit Manseng (PVs: @BarrenRidge @MountainRun @ParadiseSprings @TheWmbgWinery PMs: @50westvineyards @th_jefferson) https://t.co/fRovum4DpM

From the cellar: Opened 2010 @rcellars Cab Franc Reserve to go with roast pork last night. Drinking beautifully! Pure delight from the first sniff to the last drop. Remember, 2010 was the high alcohol, very ripe year. All perfectly integrated now. #VAWine

The grand reopening (at least of parts of Virginia). Headed to @rcellars and we weren't the only ones. Greeted by John and Theresa. Even met new Yorkie friends Marly and Myra. Allan busy bottling more hand sanitizer from Dida's Distillary. #vawine #vawinetogether

Paws up! @rcellars puts #vawine on the list of top 25 Chardonnays. #vawinetogether
Allow us to reintroduce you to Chardonnay. To help convert the skeptics, we’ve pulled together a list of the best Chardonnays we’ve tried in the past year.

@DrinkWhatULike chose @GlenManor 2011 Cab Franc for tonite's #vawine tasting. Elegant with lovely fruit. #vawinetogether

[Virginia Wine Dogs @VAWineDogs]

@WineAboutVa @DrinkWhatULike Going with the 2011 Glen Manor. We'll have to compare notes.

[Virginia Wine Dogs @VAWineDogs]

Looking forward to talking about Cab Franc with @DrinkWhatULike this evening. But oh, what bottle to open. Decisions, decisions. #VAWine #VAWineTogether
