The oldest and most widely planted of American cultivars, originally known as Norton’s Virginia Seedling. American viticultural legend T.V. Munson worked extensively with Norton as breeding stock. It produces a dense, deeply flavored red wine. Our “little dixie” terroir is well suited to providing the extra ripeness Norton requires to show it’s magnificent best. In 2016, we produced a trio of distinctly expressive wines from our Norton vineyard. We have labeled them simply as lots 1, 2, and 3. Each is delicious and stands on it’s own-but it is side by side that they really sing of the evolution of the season through energy, finesse & intensity.
