WHITES

2011 Leggero Chardonnay - Available Now! - Pineapple and vanilla notes on the nose with added citrus tones on the palate and good, forward fruit. A crisp, refreshing sipper that is also great with mild cheeses or seafood. “Leggero” (leh-jer-oh) means light, as in “not heavy”.

2011 La Giacosa Chardonnay, Springlot Reserve - Available Now! - From the very special grapes grown at Springlot Vineyard at the very top of Naked Mountain by our good friend and fellow vintner John Everson. Great citrus notes, light pineapple, hints of vanilla. Limited reserve!

2012 Calabrese Pinot Grigio – Available Now! - Our estate grown Pinot Grigio is done in the true Northern Italian style that gives loads of lush flavors. It is light, refreshing and fun with lemon zest and citrus notes and a hint of apricot. Pairs great with white pizza, chicken or seafood Caesar, or roast poultry or pork, or just sip and enjoy.

2011 La Boheme Viognier   - Available Now! -  Viognier is native to the Rhone Valley but is estate grown at Three Fox. Our  La Boheme shows an aromatic nose of citrus, melon & pear . On the palate it has pear, nectarine, and melon notes with a hint of mango. It is wonderful with pates, smoked trout, goat cheese, or well aged Gouda.

Gatto Bianco (non-vintage)Available Now! - An off-dry white with a great sassy attitude, reminiscent of the whites from the Italian Piemonte.  Pineapple & citrus nose with a hint of melon and pear on the palate. Great with seafood!  Look for the sassy white cat on the label!

2011 Appassionata Vidal Blanc - Available Now! - 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.

SPARKLING (Guest Wine!)

T-J Blanc de ChardonnayAvailable Now! - A delightful sparkler made from 100% Virginia Chardonnay by our good friends Claude Thibaut and Manuel Janisson.  Use of the traditional “Methode Champenoise” yields balanced carbonation, great acidity and yeasty notes.

ROSE

2012 Cano Pazzo Rose Available Now! – A beautifully colored Rose with spice, berry and cherry notes that is perfect for refreshing, cold sipping all by itself.  It also works great with poultry, seafood and summer salads.

REDS

2010 Signor Sangiovese Reserve  Sold Out! - Our estate grown Sangiovese with a yeast and berry nose, a round supple mouth feel with cherry, red fruits, coffee and toast notes on the palate, and a smooth lingering finish with a hint of caramel. Signor" (see-nee-or, "the lord") is meant for enjoyment on its own as well as for complimenting a great meal. Try it with a good Bolognese!

2011 Volpe Sangiovese Available Now!A first class trip in a bottle to Tuscany.  The Volpe is 75% Sangiovese, 20% Cab Franc, and 5% Chambourcin.  It has a beautiful deep garnet color and drinks like a Brunello.  The nose is leather and cassis and the palate is cherry, black cherry, coffee, toast and light chocolate with caramel notes.  Pair with meats, pasts, risotto or just sip it.

Sirius – Temporarily Sold Out! - Sirius is our proprietary red blend. This is a great wine to savor with pizza, pasta, grilled chicken or fish, or all by itself. 

2009 Piemontese Nebbiolo Available Now! - The princely grape of the Italian Piemonte, used for Barolo and Barbaresco, and estate grown at Three Fox Vineyards on the Virginia Piedmont. Elegant with great structure, black cherry, dark red fruit, and spice notes, good forward fruit and a symphony of flavors in the finish. 

2010 La Trovatella Merlot - Sold Out!! - Our estate grown Merlot (80%) blended with our estate grown Cabernet Franc (20%): Loaded with lush red fruit notes, black cherry, cassis, plum, espresso and chocolate hints, and a touch of spice.  Great by itself or with meats or mild cheeses or with dark chocolate.

2011 Alouette Cabernet Franc Available Now! Our 100% estate Cabernet Franc is loaded with black cherry, berry, roasted espresso bean, and hints of mocha.  Can be enjoyed now or be laid down for 10 – 15 years with proper cellaring. Excellent with a juicy steak, a fine cigar, dark chocolates, or for relaxing sipping just by itself.

 Non-Vintage  Rosso Dolce Chambourcin  Available Now!  - Rosso Dolce (sweet red) is our “port alternative”. Chambourcin is a hybrid originally from the Loire Valley of France (still grown there) and now much 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.
