Norton Wine Review: Though Bluemont Winery is relatively new, we were taken back how quickly the vintner had already gotten a handle on what he wanted from his Norton grape wine. Each wine produced is associated with a farm animal; as, Viognier "The Goat", Vidal Blanc "The Cow", Rose Wine "The Donkey", Merlot "The Ram", and wouldn't you know it, - Norton "The Pig". A little pricey for the quality of the wines at this point, but at least the tasting fee is dropped upon purchase(s). I have a feeling this place will grow with popularity (if vehicles will continue to have the horsepower needed to climb the hill to the winery).
