Winery Review: Our Norton has a dark, rich color and an intensely fruity aroma of plums and tart cherries. Ageing in oak for 14 months has given this wine a long, flavorful, spicy finish. A wine for game, grilled sausages, and spicy ethnic foods. 93% Norton, 7% Touriga Nacional

My Review: The nose on this wine is very fruity with mostly red fruit like raspberries. It was very aromatic with hints of oak. The taste on the palate produced a similar result of red fruit predominantly raspberries and cherries with a hint of vanilla. I found it to have a short finish and very smooth. I really liked this wine and the Virginia Norton variety is becoming a favorite.
