Appassionata Vidal Blanc
A touch of honeysuckle on the nose and citrus fruit tones on the palate. We do this in an off-dry style with 2.5% sugar for a pleasing hint of sweetness which plays off the acidity and is very reminiscent of an Alsatian-style Riesling. Try it with Thai food, curries or a very sharp, aged cheddar

Rosso Dolce Chambourcin
Rosso Dolce (sweet red) is our “port alternative”. Chambourcin is a hybrid originally from the Loire Valley of France (still grown there) and now grown in Virginia . Rosso Dolce, at 6% sugar, has strong, red fruits notes with a subtle chocolate, port-like undercurrent and finish. You can enjoy a port-like experience without the high alcohol level of a true port. Try it with your favorite chocolate dessert for a real treat! Packaged in "Bellisimo" 375 ml bottles just right for a bit of after-dinner fun.
