In a few cases the these numbers did slide up and down a notch. Bottom line, it is interesting to see how Norton vineyards are maturing. So many vineyards, so many miles to travel . . . . . . .    (hide)

Another really good sparkling comes from Virginia, from Kluge vineyards in Charlotteville, VA. Well worth the effort to hunt these sparklers down if you can. I'm a fan of the Blanc de Noir but they are all pretty dang tasty. http://www.klugeestateonline.com/wines.php    (hide)

Read moreGregT: "I'd love to try one from VA, but I'm also a little bit suspicious and wondering why they chose that particular grape to work with." That's a good question. There's a couple folks I can ask, other than just assuming that VA Tech found it to be a potentially strong grower in the soils and amidst the stifling humidity of the region. While I've had a couple from VA, certainly not enough to form a real sense of whether it's been a success there or if it's more a work in progress. The Touriga Nacional, without a doubt though, has been a success, and is in use all over the central region of the commonwealth. Not to confuse the two ;).    (hide)
