The 2006 Delfosse Vineyards Reserve d'Oriane was selected by Jack Berninger of the Richmond Times Dispatch as one of the top 5 wines to try at the Virginia Wine Expo in Richmond.
This blend (38 percent Chardonnay, 38 percent Sauvignon Blanc, 12 percent Viognier, 12 percent Petit Manseng) is a clean, intensely aromatic, crisp wine with nice aromas of honey and pineapple and tastes that are very rich and fruity. It displays citrus fruit in a style that highlights the different elements of the blend.

Over at DelFosse Vineyards in Nelson County, Virginia, it appears they're making anything but French ripple. The five-year-old vineyard's 2005 Reserve Chardonnay finished second overall in The Beverage Testing Institute's (BTI) 2007 World Wine Championships and was rated Exceptional with a 93 point and a Gold Medal. "This is the finest example we've seen of Virginia Chardonnay," said BTI director Jerald O'Kennard in a release. "It shows the region is an area that deserves attention from connoisseurs and consumers." Indeed, according to the BTI testing database, the Chardonnay's score was the highest ever recorded for a Virginia wine and the second highest Chardonnay score of the nearly 1,000 wines evaluated in the last four years. "I'm thrilled to see Virginia receiving accolades as a leading wine region," says DelFosse's founder, Claude DelFosse, in a release. "Working a stone's throw from the home of the father of American wine, Thomas Jefferson, all of us at DelFosse are dedicated to growing world-class wines right here in Nelson County."
