Weathered Vineyards - (March 2017) I've heard good things about this winery so I decided to make it part of a trip to the area.
I tried all their whites. The riesling was aromatic with the grape bringing you into the subtle taste of sweet pink grapefruit and a nice not to acidic crisp finish. Their naked chardonnay brought out the best of the grape with a nice white peach finish, but it was the oaked chardonnay that took the (naked) best and added the buttery oak finish to give it a more balanced symphony.
The merlot had a nice chard-smoke aroma reminding me of a fresh lit pipe or cigar with raspberry notes leading to a slight vanilla bean finish. The cabernet franc was mellow with hints of black cherry; possibly a good compromise wine. The reserve cabernet franc though had hints of plum and a better tannic structure, more to my liking.
