2010 Chrysalis 'Locksely' #Virginia #Vawine #Norton. Smells like amarone! Super ripe dried cherry, wild berry, red plum mixed with black pepper, graphite and vanilla spice. Firm and velvety. This thing needs like 15-20 years. #wine #sommelier#sommelier#sommelier #somm #america — 11 years ago

My first encounter with Walter Scott's Pinot Noir's under Michael Alberty's provenance at Storyteller. All 2014s. Temperance Hill was lean, austere, still a tightly wound chrysalis brooding with tobacco & sandalwood. The Clos de Oiseaux has released more fragrance, and had moved beyond the meditative sandalwood phase toward dark cherry and oolong tea, wishing for time to cure and unfurl its powers. Dumb Ox is that brilliant, precocious child: transparently true & deep, expressing fruit and earth effortlessly. Makes me think of all the places all of these very fine Pinots will go with time and some hard-earned peace, but we took the Dumb Ox! — 9 years ago
Blend 2, 4/14. Fruit is almost totally gone. Really funky nose (a bit catty). A bit one-dimensional on the palette. Super dry. — 10 years ago
Crisp Chardonnay from stainless steel fermentation. Clean and crisp, perfect for summer/hot weather. Green apple aroma and flavor. — 11 years ago
I really like this wine. Sweet candied red fruit and spice on the palate with nice floral notes on the nose. Medium to long finish. Low acidity by norton standards. A really nice wine. — 12 years ago
Great drinkability with notes of raspberry. Very nice Virginia blend — 10 years ago
