Norton

A historically significant black varietal that has been producing distinct and full red wines in the southern portion of the U.S. since the 1800s. Though it can be difficult to grow, especially with a high water table, Norton can produce fine examples of red wine that are notably absent of the foxiness found in most American vines. Also known as Cynthiana and Virginia Seedling.
