What to Expect

Norton is an indigenous American grape, also called Cynthiana, the state grape of Missouri in fact. It's widely planted in the USA with particular concentration in Virginia. Many say wines made with the grape resemble Syrah, others say Bordeaux. What is true is that the grape produces a range of styles from light and fruity to rich and dense with assertive notes of coffee and mint accenting the intense raspberry fruit.

The first thing you notice is its color. A very dark ruby color that turns translucent (you can see light through it) when the light hits it just right. Very reminiscent of the gem of the same name. It’s simply beautiful. The nose is one of cherries with an earthy undertone of moss and leaves. Upon first taste, one is hit with the taste of big fruity cherries and a nice little bit of acidity to offset the fruitiness. there are hints of roasted corn, moss and hazelnut on the nice long finish. It is a medium to heavy bodied wine, something that will stand up well to any strongly flavored dish you would want read more...
