Petit Verdot is typically used for blending in most regions, but here in Virginia it has become one of the leading varietal wines and important to the identity of the region. Aging entirely in French oak brings a savoriness to our Petit Verdot that is intertwined with the black fruits and floral aromatics that are true to the variety. This fuller-bodied wine has ample but well-rounded tannins and bright acidity that highlight the blackberry and plum component, finishing with an earthiness of woodland underbrush and sage.
A full-bodied Bordeaux blend that gives way to aromas of raspberry and blueberry with baking spice. The well-integrated tannins, balanced by the acidity and abundant red fruit components make for an approachable, yet complex wine with a velvety mouthfeel.
The Real American Grape® was first cultivated in Richmond, VA in 1830. Norton has the highest concentration of Antioxidants in any red grape, and it is “the healthiest wine you can drink”! This heavier-bodied dark-colored wine has jammy blackberry notes, vibrant acidity and finishes with a subtle smokiness.
