We haven’t had the chance to visit since our kids moved to Phoenix ten years ago so have missed the great Norton wine from Hermannhof.We were on our way to Cincinnati and made a side trip to Hermannhof to pick up Norton wine. We called in our travels from Oklahoma City to St Louis to make certain they were open, and had the wine, as it was out of our way. We let the woman in the tasting room know we ran into a lot of construction on our way out of OKC but were certain we could make it well before closing. She gave us a different route that took us on back roads saying it would be quicker. It was not.When we arrived it was at 4:45 PM and the doors were closed. We called and she let us in; told us the new Norton was a blend and very grudgingly gave me a small taste. I purchased six bottles based solely on my previous experience. Absolutely one of the worst wines I’ve ever had. I drank 1/2 of one bottle and couldn’t drink anymore.We’re so disappointed in this wine, the service and the winery I can never recommend them again. I have no idea what I’ll do with the other wines at about $26 per bottle! Had I had the opportunity to really try it I would have saved my money. It’s sad all the way around.
