Norton Rose
Gold ribbon 2011 VA Wine Lover's Classic and Bronze 2011 Governor's Cup
We are proud to reintroduce our claim-to-fame and beloved, Rose Norton, 2011 vintage! Whole-cluster pressed and barrel-aged for 8 months in French oak, we fermented this Virginian red wine grape as a white wine and completely transformed this varietal. A lighter, friendlier version, our Norton tastes just like sangria, but without the work! With natural notes of fresh berries permeating throughout; flavors of strawberry, raspberry, and cherry sit lightly upon your palette and then develop into a delightfully spicy, lingering finish. Perfect for your summer barbeques or patio get togethers! We pair this vintage with any and all dishes because of its light yet bright berry taste.

2011 Petit Verdot Rose
A unique take on rose, our Petit Verdot Rose offers a softer approach to an often times bolder, more robust grape varietal. Starting with a nose of smoke and grapefruit, this rose culminates in a satisfyingly tart finish of black cherry and strawberry. Barrel-aged in French oak with only .5% residual sugar, this vintage appeals to both dry and sweet wine drinkers alike!
