Stinson Vineyards, Monticello (Virginia) Meritage Blanc 2020

Aug 30, 2022

By Marguerite Thomas

 Central Virginia suffered severe frosts in 2020 but with the help of neighboring grape growers, Stinson managed to produce this friendly Sauvignon Blanc / Sémillon blend (43% / 57%), which is fragrant and lightly citrusy, with a pleasant texture and refreshing finish.  In case you wondered about the image of the little girl on the label, she is Betty, the youngest daughter of Stinson owners and winemakers Rachel Stinson Vrooman and Nathan Vrooman.
