Estate Norton
Hermann, Missouri · Since 1847
From This Land
The Cross J Vineyard sits on a limestone hillside above the Missouri River outside Hermann — the same river valley that made Missouri a wine powerhouse before Prohibition. These vines produce a single wine: our Estate Norton. Grown here, bottled by Stone Hill Winery, and built to age.
The Wine
One Grape. One Vineyard. One Wine.
The Norton grape is native to America — defiant, deeply colored, and unlike anything grown in Europe. Our Estate Norton is aged in American oak, built for the cellar, and expresses this Missouri hillside with every vintage.
A Wine Rooted in American Soil
Cross J Vineyard is part of Stone Hill Winery’s estate — one of America’s oldest and most awarded wineries, continuously farming this land since 1965. Visit us in Hermann, Missouri.
