Reservations Accepted | 10/1/2021 1 Welcome to Virginia’s First Urban Winery! What’s an Urban Winery, you ask? Well, we are. Take a look around, and you’ll see a pretty unique blend of concepts. First and foremost, you’ll see wine made here under our Mermaid label, highlighting the potential of Virginia’s grapes and wine production. Virginia has a rich history of grape growing and winemaking, and we’ve selected the best grapes we can get our hands on for our Mermaid Wines. We primarily work with fruit from our Charlottesville vineyard, with occasional sourcing from other locations if we see the opportunity to make something special. We’ve put together some really enjoyable wines for you to try – some classic, some fun, all delicious. Secondly, you’ll see wines from all around the world. Some you’ll recognize, others you might not. These selections lend to our wine bar-style atmosphere and really enrich the experience by offering a wide range of wines to be tried. They’re all available by the bottle, and most by the glass and flight as well, right alongside our Mermaid Wines. The staff can tell you all about any of them, so rest assured that you’ll never be drinking blind. These wines also rotate with the season, and there’s always something new to try. We have a full kitchen too, with a diverse menu that can carry you through lunch, brunch and dinner from the lightest snack to a full-on meal. With dishes that can be easily paired with a variety of our wines, make sure you try anything that catches your eye. -

California's Trailblazing Women Winemakers
California’s Trailblazing Women Winemakers: The First Twenty Years (1965 through 1984) Researched and Written by Professors Lucia and John Gilbert1 Santa Clara University 2017 ***DO NOT CITE OR QUOTE WITHOUT ACKNOWLEDGING SOURCE*** Seated from left to right are Zelma Long, Carol Shelton, Eileen Crane, and Mia Klein. Photograph provided courtesy of Women for WineSense, Napa/Sonoma Chapter. Christine Mueller, former president of the chapter, and Kerry Kirkham in second row. Women and men alike have long been involved in the production of wine in California, but historically few women were known as winemakers. In 2012, when we began our project on California Women Winemakers , a key goal was to identify the state’s women winemakers and illuminate their contributions to the wine industry. Through our research we learned that of California’s 4000+ wineries today, some 10 to 12% have lead winemakers who are women, many of whom appear on our website. Here we focus on the trailblazers— the women who have led the way to women’s more significant presence among California winemakers today. Our article identifies 50 trailblazing women who entered the winemaking field between 1965, the year of the first female graduate of a premiere enology program in California, and 1984, some twenty years later. We organized these path-breaking women into three time periods that were quite different in the opportunities they offered: 1965 through 1974, 1975 through 1979, and 1980 through 1984. The women were identified through conversations with long-time California winemakers and faculty members at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), available data from UC Davis and Wines & Vines, and books on the wine industry (e.g., Heimoff, 2008, Laube, 1999; Matasar, 2006). -

D E N A R Y C U V É E Artisanal producer of Pomerol-inspired wines WINEMAKER: Aaron Pott PRESIDENT: Paul Leary FOUNDER: Michael Polenske 2012 DENARY CUVÉE NAPA VALLEY PROPRIETARY RED WINE The 2012 Denary Cuvée offers exquisite aromas of blackberry, blueberry and tobacco. This predominately Cabernet Franc blend celebrates the tenth anniversary of winemaking for Blackbird Vineyards. Showcasing textured layers of chocolate and nutmeg combined with fine-grained tannin and cedar overlay, the supple finish is round and balanced, providing persistent length of flavor. With no frost, a mild spring and summer and a peaceful Fall, the 2012 vintage was what some describe as an ideal growing season. BLEND: 54% Cabernet Franc - 28% Merlot - 18% Cabernet Sauvignon HARVEST: Fall 2012 RELEASE: Spring 2015 BARREL REGIME: 21 months in French Oak barrels - 75% new, 25% seasoned ALCOHOL: 14.7% PRODUCTION: 20 barrels OPTIMUM DRINKING: 2015 - 2028 PRICE : $150.00 per 750ml bottle VINEYARDS Each wine in the portfolio is a true example of Blackbird’s ongoing commitment to quality by partnering with a selection of Napa Valley’s most prestigious vineyards. Blackbird Vineyard - Located in the Oak Knoll District, Blackbird’s estate vineyard, with clay soils underlaid by gravel, is an ideal site for Merlot. The region’s cool nights preserve acidity in the fruit, providing natural balance. Hudson Vineyard - Perched on a rolling hillside in the cool climate of Carneros, the Hudson Vineyard is a high-quality fruit source for Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Stagecoach Vineyard - Atop the Vaca Mountains south of Pritchard Hill, the rocky, volcanic terroir of the Stagecoach Vineyard produces intense Merlot and Cabernet Franc. -
At Ovid, We Are Committed to the Idea and Practice Of
{ experiment } experiment: n. 1) a scientific procedure undertaken to make a discovery, test a hypothesis, or demonstrate a known fact; 2) a course of action tentatively adopted without being sure of the outcome; 3) a series of wines from Ovid Napa Valley celebrating experimentation in grape growing and winemaking. At Ovid, we are committed to the idea and practice of experimenta- tion in many facets of grape growing and winemaking, in order to learn more about our land and what will make the very best wine. We conduct formal experiments in order to investigate specific topics, and we participate in a variety of academic and applied studies as well. Sometimes we simply follow our curiosity, trying things several different ways, in order to reach for what we hope will be possible in both the vineyard and the winery. Our Experiment wines are a product of this process. Each vintage, we offer small amounts of different wines that we believe will be of special interest to you, allowing you to taste and experience new aspects of our vineyard and winemaking. 2017 red experiment n2.7 “The true method of knowledge is experiment.” —William Blake Sometimes you need an external frame of reference to reshape ideas or a new conversation to challenge perceptions. With this in mind, we decided to purchase a small amount of fruit from a neighboring vineyard. But first, we walked the rows, scrutinized the clone selection and studied the row orientation and trellis setup—learning the why and how of this site. Their different approach provides us the opportunity to learn and improve what we do here at the estate.
