The oak is well integrated and lends a subtle complexity.  Overall a well balanced wine with a stroke of elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVintage:   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 2015 vintage had some scary moments but ultimately we came through unscathed.  Some low temps in early Spring had us all concerned about frost.  Additionally we also saw some heavy rains in the early spring keeping the viticulture team on their toes.  The summer came on with little rain and average temperatures for the state.  The rain then came back with a vengeance in late September to early October.  Overall though the growing season was long and did allow for good ripening.  Determining the best day to pick was the key to success.  I think we will see some good wines from Virginia vineyards for 2015\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlend:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e93% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe cabernet franc from Wessex Hundred was harvested on 16 October 2015 with 24.38 brix, 3.76 pH and 5.33g\/L TA.
