Rosemont Featured in Virginia Winery Weddings Article

Aubrey — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:51:22 +0000

In the latest edition of the Virginia Wine Gazette they've just released an article written by Nancy Bauer, from Virginia Wine in My Pocket, that focuses on Virginia Winery Weddings.

We're thrilled to be included in the article, so please check out the article by visiting: http://vawineinmypocket.com/2012/01/winery-weddings/

After you've read the article, feel free to vote for Rosemont as one of your favorite Wedding Wineries!

Rosemont Wines Certified In New CQA Program

Aubrey — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 19:22:27 +0000

We are happy to announce that the first wines that we have submitted to Virginia's newly established Commonwealth Quality Alliance, or CQA, program have passed! In December we submitted four of our wines: 2009 Syrah, 2009 Merlot, 2009 Cabernet Franc and 2009 Kilravock to be tested, and we received a passing grade in the CQA program.

We are really excited about this program and we hope that you'll soon be discovering other great quality wines across the state as this program grows! For more information on what it takes to have a wine qualify for the CQA, please read below.

The Commonwealth Quality Alliance (CQA) is a quality standards initiative in the state of the Virginia that works to reward and promote Virginia-grown wines. CQA wines are quality wines that are not only local to the state of Virginia, but also assure the consumer is getting a sound well-made wine. When you see a wine with a CQA logo, you can ensure that the wines:

Are 100% grown, produced and bottled in the Commonwealth of Virginia
Have passed a rigorous chemical analysis
Have passed a sensory panel evaluation performed by an independent third party

For more information on CQA, you can visit www.commonwealthqualityalliance.org.

Pinot Grigio 2010

Aubrey — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 04:34:07 +0000

Crisp and refreshing Italian Style wine with aromas of green apple, citrus and honey. A light body with a crisp citrus taste and bright clean finish.

Pairings: Seafood - especially crab cakes, Sharp Cheeses and Fruit

Traminette 2009

Justin — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 08:12:19 +0000

Our Traminette has quickly become one of the cornerstone wines here at Rosemont. We like to keep our Traminette dry, giving it a crisp finish with linalool (Gewurztraminer floral notes) and a touch of spiciness, citrus and honey undertones. This is a great wine to pair with spicy foods such as Thai, sushi or a light summer salad.

Chardonnay 2010

Aubrey — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 04:30:28 +0000

New Release!

Our 2010 Chardonnay is a lively representation of a crisp, Chablis style Chardonnay. It's very bright and crisp with aromas of honeydew, orange blossom and grapefruit, with a light body and hints of minerality. We aged 80% of the Chardonnay in stainless steel and the other 20% in neutral oak for 6 months.

Pairings: Any shellfish, fish or melon. We particularly love it with Cioppino!

Chardonnay 2009

Aubrey — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 04:00:20 +0000

Library Wine

Virginia Chardonnay tends to have great acidity, so we wanted to let the fruit shine through, rather than just oak. To attain that characteristic, we combined 20% barrel fermented and 80% stainless steel fermented Chardonnay, resulting in aromas of bright citrus and green apple with subtle vanilla undertones. This complex wine is medium bodied with balanced acidity and a creamy finish.

Pairings: Any type of creamy cheese, Brie for example, or with any rich chicken dishes, like Chicken Alfredo!

Rose’ of Chambourcin 2008

Ryan — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:23:52 +0000

When we set out to do a Rose', we wanted to make ours in the French style - only slightly off-dry. The result was a Rose' with some great tannin structure, smoky aromas and hints of rose petal and strawberries. WE've found this is a great wine for big red drinkers who want a nice chilled wine on a hot day. It is also a great picnic wine and pairs well with anything off of the grill - including some Carolina style BBQ!
