Veramar 2007 Cabernet Franc (Virginia)
- $21
This seductive Cabernet Franc opens up with aromas of cherry, vanilla and spice leading into layers of blackberry, plum, cinnamon and cedar on the palate. Fruit and spice are balanced here, and medium tannins means the wine can age. Paired with roasted duck or beef, the wine is a sure hit.

Veramar 2008 Estate Club Merlot (Virginia)
- $32
Rich and round, this offers plenty of concentrated blackberry notes enveloped in warm spices and supple oak. There’s a hint of green tomato leaves throughout, but the lush fruit combined with sturdy grape tannins and high acidity would pair well with fatty short ribs or braised pork.

Veramar 2009 Estate Club Ameritage Red (Virginia)
- Online Exclusive

While soft and ripe on the nose and palate with loads of soft red fruit and hints of mocha and milk chocolate, this Virginia Ameritage doesn’t have a lot of structure, but its smooth, warm style is still eager to please.

Veramar NV Tres Blanc White (Virginia)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
High-toned apple cider notes dominate the nose on this concentrated blend of Riesling, Vidal Blanc and Chardonnay from Virginia’s Veramar. Full bodied but dry with a rich viscosity and a brisk, lemony acidity, it’s straightforward, but enjoyable for a casual night’s fare.

Veramar NV Rooster Red (Virginia)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
Ripe red cherries and violets along with a hint of green make for a pleasant nose on this dry, medium-bodied Bordeaux blend. Fresh, nervy acidity amplifies the elegant black cherry and dried herb notes that carry through to an earthy, brambly finish.

Veramar NV Riesling-Vidal Blanc White (Virginia)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Bruised apple and high-toned apple cider notes on the nose. It’s an appley wine with familiar hints of ginger and apple pie spice, but brisk acidity and a supple mouthfeel keeps it from being overtly homespun in style.
