Norton Ridge was inspired by the intersection of opportunity and creativity. The wines of Norton Ridge are a testament to their relationships with growers and vintners in the Valley and beyond.
Wines are produced with a clear goal: to make straight-forward, food-friendly wines. This goal is attained through a process that begins in the vineyard, where high-quality grapes provide a base for the wine.
The grapes chosen for these wines are from select vineyard sites in Sonoma and Napa counties. The winemaking style is one of little intervention. The wines are naturally fermented and aged in steel to preserve some of the fruit focus.
No new oak is used (none at all in the Chardonnay) to allow the fruit and varietal characteristics of the wines to shine through.
Both the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are clean, bright wines that pair well with a wide variety of foods.
