Veramar 2008 Estate Club Merlot
- $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 2011 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay (Shenandoah Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
The oak-influenced nose is an aromatic showcase of honeyed nut, Granny Smith apple, dried caramel and flower petal. Soft and weighty upon entrance, the palate picks up some acidic steam on the midpalate, finishing with a medium-to-long flavor of toasty, warm spiced apple.

Veramar 2007 Cabernet Franc
- $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 2009 Estate Club Merlot
- Online Exclusive

Veramar 2010 Viognier
- $24
Aromas of toasted macadamia, Fuji apple and apricot preserves are bold and well delineated. This tastes off-dry, but its acids are lively enough to keep the midpalate from feeling sticky. Warm and sappy on the finish, it bears vivid, lingering notes of toasted nut and bruised apple. Try pairing this with roast chicken and a not-too-sweet apricot chutney.

Veramar 2011 Seyval Blanc
- Online Exclusive
- $18
The bright bouquet of Meyer lemon zest, green apple and pear is filled out with heftier scents of toasted nut and bees wax. Medium bodied with precise flavors, the palate is marked by stimulating acidity, finishing with some warmth and a mineral tang.

Veramar 2009 Estate Club Ameritage Red
- Online Exclusive
- $19
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.
