Blenheim Vineyards Painted Red 2022 Review
There’s a great quote from the Blenheim Vineyards website: “Winemaker Kirsty Harmon starts with science.” She has a background in microbiology and studied yeast genetics for several years. Harmon's experience and skill helped Blenheim become a winery leading the charge for Virginia wine. This wine has bright fruit with a good dose of earth on the nose. The palate is wonderful with soft red berries and great natural acidity.
