Located just northeast of Charlottesville, Barboursville Vineyards is the most honored winery in Virginia. Founded in 1976 by Gianni Zonin, the winery's Italian roots still resonate as grapes like Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Pinot Grigio are grown alongside Cabernet Franc, Viognier, and Merlot. Look for Octagon, a magnificent Bordeaux blend that pays homage to Virginia's first oenophile, Thomas Jefferson.

This week we look at three wines that are good enough to be much better than you might expect. The first is a seriously inexpensive cabernet which is much better than the price tag. The next is a rosé which is different in that it is much drier than your average sweet offering. The final offering is a nebbiolo which stood out at a tasting against much more pricey bottles.
