Simple, light and fruity reds with a lightly coloured ruby hue, smooth tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, featuring understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE variety collections for its heritage value, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of South-West France and is among the heritage varieties being studied. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Augusta

First AVA in the United States (Missouri, 1980, 8 months before Napa; 15 square miles between ridges and the Missouri River, Hayne Silt-Loam soils). Norton is the signature red and Missouri's official state grape: full-bodied and earthy with dark berries and firm tannins. Chambourcin, Traminette, Seyval Blanc and Vidal as French-American hybrids for adapted whites and reds. Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay as complementary vinifera; temperate microclimate.

The wine region of Missouri

American Midwest vineyard, cradle of the first US AVA (Augusta, 1980, 8 months before Napa). Signature Norton/Cynthiana, the state's official grape and a native pride: dense, deeply coloured reds with signature notes of blackberry, candied black cherry, plum, coffee, leather and spices, firm tannins - fleshy age-worthy wines, robust against the humid continental climate. Also off-dry Vidal Blanc (citrus, honey), fruity red Chambourcin, peppery Cabernet Franc, lively Seyval Blanc.

The word of the wine: Load shedding

Unlike pumping over, the liquid part is completely removed from the tank before being poured over the marc. This allows for a better mixing of the solid particles and the juice.
