   this was a disappointment. i love most of breaux's [red] wines + i love jefferson's viognier, but unfortunately the combination did not work out as i had hoped.

   Not great. I don't drink a lot of white wines, so I'm not the best judge, but I just didn't too highly of this one. Not light or crisp enough.

   Pretty soft. Short finish. I liked it but I wish there were more too it. I haven't had a lot of great VA red wine in a while and while this didn't quite get to "great," it was quite solid.

   This local wine is easy to drink and recommended to be drunk slightly chilled. I don't chill merlot so I drank it at room temp. Very little structure. Smooth fruit is made interesting by some offsetting acidity.
