Pontchartrain Vineyards

I prefer sweet wine, so I did not purchase much. But the Jazz in the Vines event was great!

Norton Wine Review: Almost a year back I responded to this Norton 2004 Rouge Militaire wine in fairly caustic terms. After letting another bottle sit quietly, we bravely ventured yet once again to see if by any chance Louisiana could produce a palatable Norton wine. Well, ~ a plum color, sharp aroma, and a Norton wine unique in it's very dry, lightly oaked approach. The two previous bottles had a burnt orange color, but this bottle, though not truly satisfying, did escape the kitchen sink. Is something going wrong with Pontchartrain Vineyards' 2004 corks? [Ignore our Winery & Ambiance rating since we did not personally go to the actual vineyard]

Favorite Wine: Rouge Militaire & Zydeco Rosato

This vinyard produces a great variety of wines that are primarily sold to the best New Orleans restaurants. We're in the wine club and get three great bottles every quarter. If you are in the New Orleans area try to catch one of their Jazz in the Vines events - you might just catch one of the Neville Bros. and have some great wine - yes - in Louisiana
