2005 Fincastle Vineyard & Winery, Hybrid Vigor, VA (Approx $10). Alcohol level: 12.5%. This is a blend of Traminette, Vidal Blanc, and Chardonnel. It is semi-sweet, containing 1% RS. We picked it up on our trip south in early '06.

It gives you a good belt of citrus on the nose and upfront. Nice body with that touch of sweetness in the middle, and a lovely finish. Thought it might be getting old, but it was as fresh as the proverbial daisy.

We matched it with broiled homemade crab cakes using the recipe on the Old Bay can; and eggplant salad. It turned out to be a great match. Great Friday night.
