Dear Estate Club Members,

October is Virginia Wine Month, making it an especially fitting time to celebrate what our vineyards and our region can produce.

For this month’s Estate Club release, we’re bringing together two distinctly different expressions of Virginia wine: the rich, expressive character of a special Cabernet Franc pre-release and the bright freshness of a new vintage that Estate Club members will experience before anyone else.

2024 Cabernet Franc
Rich, Expressive & Distinctly Virginia

Our 2024 Cabernet Franc is being offered as a special pre-release exclusively to the Estate Club. Rich and expressive, this medium- to full-bodied wine delivers exceptional fruit, color, and concentration, with notes of red berries, jam, toasted vanilla, and a hint of cedar. Petit Verdot adds structure while Merlot contributes additional fruit character, creating a balanced and compelling expression of Virginia Cabernet Franc.

2025 Rosé of Cabernet Franc
Your First Taste of the New Vintage

Providing a vibrant counterpoint is our 2025 Rosé of Cabernet Franc, offered as a pre-release exclusively to club members and not yet available in the tasting room. Crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc and fermented in stainless steel, this wine leads with fresh red berries on the nose and energetic, mouth-watering acidity on the palate. We’re particularly excited to give our Estate Club members an early introduction to the 2025 vintage.

As we celebrate Virginia Wine Month, we can think of few better ways to mark the occasion than by sharing wines that showcase both the diversity of what we grow and the range of wines those vineyards allow us to create.

Thank you, as always, for being part of the Sunset Hills Estate Club. We hope you’ll raise a glass with us this October as we celebrate Virginia wine and the vineyards, people, and community behind every bottle.

Cheers!
Chris & Katie
