Wine is a crossroads of nature, history, geography, and culture. Inside these pages you will find many bottles that will directly interface you with some of the most talented and thoughtful winemakers of our time. All from the comfort of your table, this drink will take you to the beautiful slopes of gold in Burgundy, the steepest mountain sides along the Rhine River, the carefully farmed vineyards out in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the yellow and purple fields in Napa, and anywhere else the grapevine dares to grow. Our wine list spans the globe, but you will notice that we pay heavy homage to the benchmark wines of France and to the special producers in our own backyard of Virginia. To me, wine is a simple thing a beverage to enjoy with your meal. But it is also something that is subtly profound. When we drink wine, it might just rival Chef Brian s cuisine as the best way to experience the bounty of the Earth. Erin Scala DWS Wine Director 1

These wines ignite a great synergy with food, as they support cuisine without overpowering it.

Wines of Virginia We ve been keeping a close eye on Virginia s blossoming wine industry. Here are a few of our favorites. Thibault-Janisson - Sparkling Chardonnay $65 A pioneering force in Virginia sparkling winemaking, Thibault-Janisson has not only shown us that high quality bubbles can be made here, but they ve demonstrated that extraordinary sparkling wine is possible. In the forging of their own pathway, they ve inspired others along the way and gotten the possibilities of Virginia sparklers off to a bubbly start. Ankida Ridge - Pinot Noir 2013 $89 This tiny boutique winery nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains has just a few acres of vines. With this small amount of real estate, they make a truly large impression on the Virginia wine scene. The wines are organically farmed, animals roam free in the vineyard, and a husband & wife winemaking team look after the operation. They specialize in Burgundian-style pinot noir and chardonnay. King Family - Petit Verdot 2014 $89 In 1996, the King family put down roots in Crozet and has been helping to define Virginia wine ever since. They are one of the few Virginia wineries to release their wines from 100% estate fruit controlling the fruit from vine to wine can make a big impact on quality. Winemaker Matthieu Finot brings a wealth of experience from his childhood in the Loire Valley of France. 16
