Mount Pleasant Estates Norton 2017 Review

This wine is so American. It’s made from one of our more successful hybrids, Norton. It smells of cooking spices like cinnamon and cloves with some blackberry compote, and has a comfy, meaty palate. The acidity is just right, keeping the wine balanced. This is a great wine for cozy meat dishes like mutton or osso buco.
