Cooper Vineyards 2010 Reserve Norton (Virginia)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Norton Virginia
Winery: Cooper Vineyards / Virginia

This Norton starts strong with bold aromas of black mission fig, chocolate ganache and hickory, but with air a distracting chemical-like tone surfaces. The palate is firm with salient, saliva-inducing acids, a medium amount of integrated chewy tannins, and a finish that bears a flavor of desiccated black fruit.
